Aarogya Seva's Tele-Health Helpline is on the way! We are in the process of recruiting doctors from across India that speak a variety of languages who will be able to cater to the needs of a Pan-India clientel. We're excited about the prospect of the functionality of our tele-health helpline as we've been able to solve challenges and meet the needs of people with our Mental Health Helpline.
A Success Story
A man called the Aarogya Seva Mental Health Helpline reaching out on behalf of his mother living in Belgarn, India. He explained that his mother was living with a pre-existing psychiatric condition and that they were facing difficulty in procuring her psychiatric medication during the COVID-19 quarantine. The COVID-19 quarantine had placed tight restrictions on inter-state travel and as a result disrupted the availability of his mother's medication in their state. Without this psychiatric medication, he coveyed that his mother was experiencing serious challenges to living comfortably. The Aarogya Seva team was able to mobilize resources and procure medication from across state boundaries and make it available to his mother.
Thanks to your donation, our tele-health helpline will be suited to respond to similar healthcare challenges in India!
