Medical camp and parents’ involvement program at Ramaya colony
The free medical camp was launched for the migrants of the Ramaya colony on
22 nd Feb 2022 by FIDES with the support of Fr. Martin SJ Director of ISI (Indian
Social Institute). The main objective of this program was to conduct a general
health check-up for the migrant people who work hard and are less concerned
about their life and health. It also aimed at instructing the parents about the
importance of health and prevention of diseases, birth control, and importance
of education for children, the impact of child marriage, and child labour and
the importance of cleanness around.
Around 90 above beneficiaries participated in both the events. A10 member
team of St. Philomena’s Hospital including two Physicians, nurses, sisters, and
volunteers of St. Philomena’s hospital arrived at 2.00 pm. Free Physical
examination along with free Blood Sugar and Blood Pressure was given by the
Hospital. Doctors advised them of various medicines during the camp.
The Camp was successfully organized under the guidance of Fr. Martin SJ
director of ISI and assisted by Sr. Vennila Dominic, and youth volunteers of
FIDES. The resource person for the parents' involvement program was Mrs.
Amal Clareace Mary MA, M.Ed., (PG diploma in Family Counselling). This
programme was aimed at delivering message to the parents on the importance
of education for the children, the impact of child marriage and child labour,
and some knowledge on birth control. Parents were happy and were
interactive throughout the session. The program concluded with a vote of
thanks and the final request of Sr.Vennila on the importance of cleanliness
around and taking care of the mother earth by reducing the garbage and
plastics.
