Hon’ble Member of Parliament from New Delhi, Ms. Bansuri Swaraj today flagged off two Mobile Medical Units (MMUs) here under CSR Project of GAIL (India) Limited. In addition, GAIL handed over one advanced life support ambulance to AIIMS, New Delhi. The flag-off was done by the Hon’ble MP in the presence of GAIL Director (HR) Shri Ayush Gupta, AIIMS Director Dr. M Srinivas, AIIMS Medical Superintendent Dr. Nirupam Madaan and other officials.

The MMUs are part of Project Arogya, a flagship Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Project of GAIL. Under this project, free primary healthcare services are provided at the doorsteps of the underprivileged communities in the area. Through the qualified medical team in the MMU, free medical services and medicines are provided to these communities who have limited access to the established Public Health Care system.

The GPS tracked MMUs shall provide medical services to about 80 patients per day. In addition to these, low-cost sanitary napkins are also distributed and basic diagnostic tests undertaken through these MMUs. These MMUs follow an ADCR Formula of Awareness, Diagnosis, Cure and Referral. Information, Education and Communication (IEC) and Behaviour Change Communication (BCC) activities are also undertaken by the team to generate awareness on health and hygiene related topics.

Services of the MMUs especially support the elderly and the physically challenged who are often unable to avail medical services available at a distance from their localities. This also considerably brings down the average medical expenses of these families.

In addition to the newly flagged off MMUs, 50 MMUs are currently operational across 25 districts in 12 states under Project Arogya of GAIL CSR.
