Narasaraopet and Ramapuram medical projects - Nov-12

Ramapuram medical project. Around 10kms away from Chirala town. Started during Tsunami time.
Medical support for fishing community. Not much medical facility in this area since it is far away from the town.

 Although started during the Tsunami time, the medical support continued till date giving regular first aid help with a nurse - Ananda kumari.

Though the town is fast developing, these people are still backward. Still not much aware of hygiene conditions.  Besides medication, the nurse is giving them health awareness which is very much necessary here.

Government is also conducting medical camps here every now and then.
