Uttarakhand CM Dhami launches 9 mobile medical units to improve healthcare in rural and urban areas, offering diagnostics and basic treatment to remote communities.

The government of Uttarakhand has added nine additional mobile medical units to improve healthcare in both rural and urban areas of the state. On Thursday, Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami sent the cars off from his home in Nagla Tarai, Khatima.

These mobile medical units are meant to provide primary healthcare services, such as medical consultations, diagnostic tests, and basic treatment, to areas that have trouble getting to hospitals or clinics. The change is supposed to make healthcare easier to get, especially in communities that are hard to reach or don’t get enough of it.

According to Chief Minister Dhami, the additional facilities will be very helpful in reaching more people with healthcare and making sure that people get medical care when they need it. He also said that working together with the government, businesses, and social groups might assist fill up important service gaps and make health facilities more accessible to people.

According to Yudhveer Singh, the Project Manager at The Hans Foundation, their eight mobile units will work in two districts: four in Udham Singh Nagar and four in Nainital. Every vehicle has the tools to do basic diagnostics and treatments.

Anamika Jha, the Director of Hindustan Zinc, said that their company has already started similar mobile healthcare services in Rajasthan and is now helping Uttarakhand as well. In the Udham Singh Nagar district, the service would cover 25 villages in the Gadarpur and Kichha areas. Each van will have a doctor, a nurse, and a counselor on board to give check-ups, guidance, and treatment.

Several authorities were there for the event, including Ajay Maurya, the District Panchayat Chairman; Ramesh Chandra Joshi, the Municipality Chairman; Nitin Singh Bhadauria, the District Magistrate; and Manikant Mishra, the Senior Superintendent of Police.
