Improving access to health and nutrition

India is witnessing a sharp rise in non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, which have become leading causes of mortality. Additionally, maternal and child mortality rates remain a pressing concern, especially in rural areas. With a vision to create a more equitable and healthier society, we are dedicated to providing both preventive and curative healthcare solutions to underserved communities.

Through initiatives such as mobile healthcare units and health camps, the Foundation ensures access to primary healthcare, while rural clinics and hospitals cater to secondary and tertiary care needs. Furthering its commitment to improving nutrition and maternal health, Project SuPoshan actively combats malnutrition and anaemia by empowering village-level volunteers, SuPoshan Sanginis, to drive awareness and intervention at the grassroots level. By addressing critical health challenges, we are striving to improve the overall health and well-being of communities, enabling people across all age groups to lead healthy and productive lives.

Mobile Healthcare Units – Reaching the Unreached

The Mobile Healthcare Units (MHCUs) are transforming rural healthcare by providing free medical consultation, medicines, and home visits to the elderly and bedridden. These units play a crucial role in preventing and identifying medical conditions at an early stage while raising awareness about seasonal diseases.

To extend healthcare access to remote areas, the Foundation operates nine MHCUs across Godda (Jharkhand), Kawai (Rajasthan), Raigarh & Raipur (Chhattisgarh), Tiroda (Maharashtra), Singrauli (Madhya Pradesh) and Udupi (Karnataka), covering villages in the interior. These units cater to unreached communities, particularly women and the elderly, ensuring timely medical attention. Patients with critical conditions are referred to hospitals for further diagnosis and treatment, reinforcing the Foundation’s commitment to accessible and equitable healthcare.

General & Specialised Medical Camps

The Adani Foundation organised a series of general and specialised medical camps aimed at prevention, cure, and early screening of medical conditions. These camps provided essential healthcare services such as ophthalmic, paediatric, gynaecological, cardiology, and osteopathy consultations. The camps brought medical care to the doorstep, ensuring that underserved communities had access to critical health services.

Cancer Awareness & Screening Camps – Empowering Communities with Knowledge

The Adani Foundation organised cancer awareness and screening camps across villages, in collaboration with government health officials. These camps focussed on educating communities about the importance of early detection and prevention, specifically targeting oral cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, and Pap smear screenings. This initiative aimed to raise awareness and ensure timely intervention for cancer-related health issues in rural areas.
