The Department of Community Medicine organised a community medical camp on 1st January 2025 at Anathamangalam, sponsored by SRM Institute of Science and Technology (SRMIST). The initiative aimed to improve access to basic healthcare services and promote preventive health awareness among the local population.

A total of 107 outpatients were examined during the camp. Patients received primary medical care, basic treatment, and personalised health guidance from the medical team. Fifteen individuals who required further investigation and specialised care were identified and issued yellow referral cards, enabling them to receive free treatment at SRM Medical College Hospital and Research Centre.

SRM Medical College Hospital and Research Centre is a leading tertiary care teaching hospital known for its comprehensive clinical services, advanced diagnostic facilities, and patient-centred approach. As part of its commitment to community outreach, the hospital regularly supports medical camps and public health initiatives, ensuring continuity of care for patients referred from underserved areas.

The medical camp reflects SRMMCHRC’s continued focus on community well-being, accessible healthcare, and early detection of health conditions through structured outreach programmes.
