Arogyam
Arogyam (A Sanskrit word meaning “Free from illness”)
is a medical programme of the Maitreey Mission for the poor leprosy
patients; underprivileged, and needy sick people who are rendered
free treatment. This programme covers treatment of dreaded disease
like tuberculosis, leprosy and other high infection diseases/ailments.
Right from consultation, diagnosis, medication, physiotherapy,
rehabilitation and counseling is provided free by the Mission to
the patients.
Due to
the apparent visible deformities on the face and limbs of leprosy
patients and on account of their oozing wounds, stubbed fingers/toes
and deformed limbs they are not normally attended by medical
doctors. The affected patients do not get adequate medical help
including regular dressing and cleaning of their infected wounds.
The Mission in a humble way is running a Leprosy Clinic –cum- Dispensary
at “Jeevan Deep Kushta Ashram” New Delhi. This dispensary
is well equipped with the necessary infrastructure for the detection,
treatment and rehabilitation. Full time doctors, along with medical
assistants are available to check, diagnose and dispense treatment.
We call for support from compassionate and public spirited persons,
corporates and philanthropic organizations to help serve the
society in the noble cause |
