Health is Wealth

From social media we came to know that, some of the slums are not getting proper health care. They are not aware of hygienic life style. Even they are ignorant of First-Aid. Keeping this in view Odisha State Bharat Scouts & Guides decided to take some precautionary measures. As a result on the occasion of International Day of Peace-2021 (21st Sept.) Odisha State BS&G has organised a Health Checkup Camp.
To execute the plan properly, a senior doctor from the near by KAR Clinic was contacted & got his willingness. All the requisites materials were collected previously & on the scheduled date the team went to Purushotam Slum, Mancheswar, Bhubaneswar. The Anganawadi & Assa Karmi of that area cooperated a lot to bring the slum dwellers to the doctor and to express about their health problems before him. Along with the health checkup, First-Aid book, sanitizer, mask, leaflets also being distributed.
The people of the area became very happy, because they were made cautious about the disadvantage to lead unhygienic life. they made themselves ready to refer the first-aid book, use mask & sanitizer and to keep social distance.
Really practice makes a man perfect. all of us got the opportunity to expose themselves the field of health awareness. No doubt this achievement will be a source of inspiration to all of us and we will be encouraged to do more in future.
