AYUSH MEDICAL CAMP

FREE DIABETES SCREENING CAMP – 6/12/24

On 6th December 2024, the Department of Pharmacy Practice at KTN College of Pharmacy, in collaboration with the State Ayush Department and Chalavara Panchayat, organized a free diabetic screening camp at the Chalavara Open Auditorium. The camp, which started at 9:30 AM, provided free health check-ups, specialist consultations, and medications to participants while raising awareness about preventive healthcare. Services included monitoring random blood sugar, blood pressure (BP), and body mass index (BMI). Final-year Pharm D students volunteered for the camp and actively participated in monitoring BP, RBS, and BMI. Overwhelming community participation highlighted the camp’s success, with several undiagnosed conditions identified for timely intervention. The initiative received positive feedback for its impact on rural healthcare, and the organizers expressed their commitment to future such events.
