Today I would like to share the good news that Christian Medical College, Vellore was given three awards in the care of COVID-19.
The first award related to work place for safety.
The second award was related to excellence in hospital preparedness
“Excellence in Hospital Preparedness for COVID-19”
- awarded by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI)
The third award was for best charitable hospital
- Best Charity Hospital combating COVID-19“
awarded by the India Today Group in the India Today Healthgiri Awards. Link to video here.
I want to focus on the last award. As a charitable hospital it was a big challenge. Because of COVID 19, other general patients stopped coming as well as the lockdown which prevented the regular flow of patients.
It is within this major challenge, that CMC Vellore was able to continue providing charitable services.
CMC needs the continued support of friends and well wishers to continue its charitable services. Please feel free to share with those who could contribute during this of need in serving the poor in health care.
