Strengthening Community Health
Today’s camp was tiring yet truly fulfilling. We were humbled by the overwhelming participation.
A patient with a stroke for two days was brought to us. With no relative available to help, we contacted his son in another village and ensured the patient was shifted safely to the Government Hospital for urgent care.
We also saw four stroke survivors who were not on any treatment. All have now been counselled and advised to attend regular follow-up in our monthly camps.
There were several patients with newly detected hypertension, diabetes, migraine, and Parkinson’s disease, who will now begin appropriate management.
Surprisingly, a few patients had travelled long distances after seeing our social media post. Their trust truly touches our hearts—bless them all.
A heartfelt thanks to Dr Prasad and the entire MACTS team for their extremely well-organised arrangements and warm hospitality. My sincere gratitude to my own team for their unwavering dedication.
The Dr Bindu Menon Foundation continues to work striving to reduce the treatment gap and bring neurological care closer to those who need it most.
