Our Partner DSS in Kolkata has opened primary care clinics in slums in the docks area, making it easy for residents to access healthcare close to home for the first time.
Patients requiring more complex support are referred to Divine Script Society (DSS Kolkata)'s main clinic or to nearby hospitals.
An outreach programme is also underway, providing residents with vital information about diseases and lifestyle so they and their children can stay healthy.
The clinics are staffed by qualified medical professionals and community health workers, offering a welcoming and accessible service to people who have previously had little or no access to healthcare.
