Project Proposal: FREE HEALTH CAMP

Background

Health ‘camps’ are one of the strategies adopted by both government and non-government
organizations. This literally means that a team of health professionals ‘camp’ in an area to carry out
a limited health intervention

The Free Health Camps is one such special initiative to provide healthcare services to meet the
immediate health care needs of the community. Customized health camps will be organized
extensively across the state offering comprehensive health services such as curative, preventive,
promotive and referral, to a large number of people in selected areas.

Multi-disciplinary projects include gynaecological, paediatric, ophthalmology, surgical services and

etc., whereas other interventions can be general in nature.

The uniqueness of the model lies in its comprehensive approach where health promotion and
prevention are given equal importance while curative care is administered.

Objectives

The objective of conducting the health camp is to create awareness of general health among the
people, provide general health care services and counseling them on basic healthcare and hygiene.
