• Support a Health Camp

One morning with a doctor can keep a driver safely on the road.

Truck drivers keep India’s goods moving, but rarely get to see a doctor. Your support brings a full health camp to them, at our centres or at your premises.

Why your support matters

Why Support a Camp

Truck drivers keep India’s goods moving, but long hours, constant travel and the fear of losing a day’s earnings mean they rarely see a doctor. Problems are found late, often too late.
Tuition Fees

Eyesight

Poor vision goes unnoticed, yet drivers spend 8–14 hours a day at the wheel.

Certificate

BP and Sugar

Irregular meals, poor sleep and stress lead to diabetes and high blood pressure.

On the job

Hearing

Years of engine and horn noise cause hearing loss that affects road safety.

Oral health

Tobacco and gutka use raise the risk of gum disease and oral cancer.

Certificate

Back and joints

Long hours in one seated position, plus loading work, take a toll.

On the job

Lungs

Dust and diesel exhaust, and a higher risk of TB.

A camp at our OR your premises brings doctors to the drivers, where they already stop. One morning of their time can catch a problem early, and keep a driver and his family safe. Your business is seen caring for the people it depends on.
