RURAL HEALTH
As
many of the areas of operations in the interior, many of the basic facilities
including the health are missing. Many of the villages are in forest
areas and thus even the primary health care is not available. Due to
this reality rural health services is also a priority concern of EDCI.
These programs will include medical checkup, diagnostic camps, eye camps,
child & women health care, preventive health education etc. Presently
EDCI has 3 doctors and 16 primary health workers. One of the main tasks
of this group is to impart preventive education through different kinds
of training programmes, meetings, exhibitions etc. Every year about
80,000 persons are the beneficiaries of different EDCI health programmes.
