and Health Checkup
Initiatives by Bhaktivedanta Institute throughout India
About initiative
Bhaktivedanta Institute recognizes the challenges of the underprivileged to access primary healthcare. We, therefore, organize free health camps across geographies which include a thorough check-up by a doctor, distribution of free medicines along with specialized tests namely BP, Blood Sugar, and Haemoglobin(Hb) monitoring, Eye Check-up, and many more.
These timely interventions provide early diagnosis and treatment reducing the incidence of morbidity and mortality. Such health camps address the immediate health care needs of marginalized communities.
I can recommend Sri Caitanya-caritamrta as a source of rich insights for every serious student of consciousness.
