NEW APPLICATION FOR MEDICAL CENTRE – BURLAVARI PALEM
Request for Medical project came from Harijan waada, Burla
vari palem.
Burlavaripalem is a village
which is 7kms from Chirala town.
It has both Hindu and
Christian communities but the request for medical help came specially from the
Harijan wada which is mostly with Christians.
Harijanwaada has around 500
houses with 2000 people. Majority are daily workers in Paddy and corn fields
and few have cattle so selling milk is
also an income source for some people.
There is no medical facility
in this area like medical shop or primary health centre. The nearest medicine
availability is 3kms from the village.
The villagers looked for a
nurse from their area itself. Name of the nurse is Mrs.Mariyamma. 40 yrs of
age. She is working in a private hospital in Chirala. Her husband is also a
daily worker. She has 2 daughters and one son.
She is from this area and she
is familiar with all the people here. People come up to her sometimes when they
need injections or first aid help so the villagers thought she would take good medical care for the people.
Mrs.Martha, M.D of Shoshana,
Germany has been to this area in her recent visit and she approved to open
regular medical support in this area so depending on the room availability for
the centre and other arrangements, we are going to open the centre as soon as
possible.
