CSR

Gift Of Vision

The indifference and ignorance about healthy living has not much changed in rural India. Quacks still are the saviours there as far as healthcare is concerned. Eye problems are unanimously neglected as trivia, especially with senior citizens who are virtually the victim of indifference, apathy, passivity and poverty.

In tune with this reality, Ambuja Neotia organizes Eye treatment campaigns alongwith cataract surgeries with renowned eye hospitals.

Free Paediatric Surgeries

Children from low-income families are getting treated in the Bhagirathi Neotia Woman & Child Care Centre, our Group hospital, and getting rid of their birth defects. Its an entirely free exercise for children from 6 months to 14 years. Surgeries like Cleft lip, Cleft palate, Phimosis, Umbilical hernia, Undescended testis, Tongue tie, Syndactyly, Appendixitis, Hydrocele, Inguinal hernia, Lymphatic cysts, etc. are regularly done by eminent surgeons.

Provision For Drinking Water

In order to solve the drinking water crisis in remote places, we support communities with solution. Previously we dug deep tube wells in villages which benefited hundreds; today we provide water stations with purifiers in schools for children in South 24 Parganas.

Rural Medical Camps

We organize and implement periodic healthcare camps in rural Bengal where we provide quality health services at doorsteps of the poor. Our team of pediatricians, gynaecologists and general physicians are taken to remote villages where they give free consultations also free medicines including antibiotics to 100-150 patients per campday.  The healing process is monitored through followup camps.

Spreading Awareness

The CSR department is involved in creating awareness amongst the masses – especially mothers and would-be mothers whose care, health and attention is required to make every baby survive and live healthy. Village-level meetings are held with different set of community people, segregated age-wise, to discuss different relevant issues - hygiene practices, adolescent mental & physical changes, childcare, immunization, breast-feeding, preventing diseases, family planning et al.

Sanitation

In order to stop open defaecation completely, we are very much part of the Swacch Bharat campaign. We have implemented  625 household sanitary (concrete) toilets in villages so far and work is ongoing for more numbers. Target is to cover 100% families with zero open defaecation in the villages we work for. We also promote smokeless chullah in these households to prevent carbon pollution.
