Saad

Overview of the Aarogya Project:

General Health Check-up Camps are one of the strategies used by the SAAD Foundation to raise health awareness in Mumbai's urban slums. It is one of All Cargo Logistics Pvt Ltd's CSR initiatives, and with their generous support, the SAAD Foundation has been holding health camps every year. The SAAD Foundation organises a medical camp in Mumbai's urban slums with a team of health professionals, where the majority of the deprived population is unaware of general precautions and does not have access to primary health care. The General Health Check-up camps are a special initiative that provides healthcare services to meet the community's immediate health care needs. Customized health camps are held all over Mumbai's slums, providing a wide range of general health services such as curative, preventive, promotive, and referral to a large number of people in specific areas of the city's slums. The model's uniqueness lies in its comprehensive approach, which prioritises health promotion and prevention while administering and referring curative care.

Objective

• To create awareness of general health among the people.
