Nazareth Health Center
Sangsey, Kalimpong, WB
History
With no medical facility available in a 30 km radius, Nazareth Hospital initiated its outreach program to this remote village near Kalimpong at a time when the approach to the village was not in existence. Snake bites, maternity care, accidents and addiction to liquor were some of the everyday eventualities. The health care personnel appointed by Nazareth Hospital, Mokama took up the challenges of reaching out to the people at any time of the day and night.
The centre has expanded its outreach services with health camps and school health programs.
