Amma Blesses Mobile Tele-Medicine Unit
16th,May Today Amma blessed AIMS Hospital’s new “mobile medical unit.” The unit will bring the state-of-the-art medical care of AIMS to rural areas via its satellite. Dr. Prem Nair, the Medical Director of AIMS, and Dr. Kumar Menon, a doctor working out of the unit, gave Amma a quick tour of the unit’s facilities. Amma then requested that all the ashramites chant Om lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu as she performed the arati. |  |
 | The unit, which is as large as a city bus, contains facilities for X-ray and ECG, as well as a pathology lab. The manufacturing of the unit was sponsored by Direct Relief International, a U.S.-based NGO that provides aid to strengthen in-country health efforts around the world. The satellite-technology is provided by ISRO. |
AIMS doctors have already used the vehicle for a three-week-long medical camp in Karaikudy, Tamil Nadu. It will soon be used to tend to residents of the tsunami-affected areas of Kerala and the tribal areas of Palakkad, Wayanad and Idukki on a weekly basis.
