Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
As an essential part of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)our students also plan and provide medical and health services to the local community by regularly organizing Community Health Programs.
These programs tremendously help our students to start interaction and gain experience with the patients at the early stage of their career. While planning, organizing, and managing these programs our students also gain experience and learning of expected real life situations.
The major objective of these Community Health Programs is to enable and equip our students to learn and improve their clinical thinking, reasoning, and solutions for various medical and health related issues being faced by the population; an approach of “Early Clinical Exposure”.
