🎗️ Occasion: World Diabetes Day
An Awareness Program was organised for the male inpatients of the Surgical and Ulcer Wards at TLM Naini Hospital.
Mr. Ricky, a post-operative RCS patient, delivered a highly informative session on the Disability Pension Scheme, explaining the eligibility criteria and the procedures required to access these benefits.
A total of 75 patients participated in the program:
• 26 patients had already availed the Disability Pension Scheme
• 19 patients were receiving the Old Age Maintenance Grant
• 7 patients were receiving the monthly pension under the Leprosy category
The session was followed by a Focused Group Discussion, where participants actively interacted, shared ideas, and sought clarifications. The program helped raise awareness and ensured that patients are better informed about the schemes available to support them.
