Health on wheels - Mobile health camp for poor

The tea gardens are located in remote places and so, there is no garden hospital. The location of the BPHC is very far from the residences of tea garden workers. When they suffer from any disease, they can’t avail government facilities going to government hospitals as they have monetary problem. They also cannot do hard work for their weaknesses and hypertension due to insufficient food intake except collecting tea leafs. Continuing of the garden owners and the government created such an atmosphere in tea garden areas where primary treatment has remained a distant dream. It is observed that considerable numbers of people are illiterate, especially among the adivasis. That is why they don’t know how to take care of health.

That is why; during this month also we conducted medical camp by MBBS doctor in diffrent location of  the tea garden areas of Madarihat block.

In our mobile medical camps, every doctor has checked the patients very carefully. We have provided different types of medicine to the patients according to their needs.

This month we conducted 26 medical camps in mentioned six different tea garden areas of madarihat block. Total 2347 patients were checked by MBBS doctor and diagnostic tests were done for 160 patients by lab technician. We sent 75 patients to government hospital for higher facilities as referral cases.

Through our medical camp many patients have cured by taking proper medicine. This month we found different types of patients like; gastro-intestinal problems, hypertension, sugar, anemia diabetes etc. All the time we are trying to provide good services to the patients. Now-a-days all the patients are very happy for getting good treatment. They also thanked Sabuj sangha and Government health department for benevolent services.
