A Day Of Care And Commitment: School Health Camp At Saraswoti Secondary School

On a bright winter morning in Dhuseni Shivalaya, Ward No. 4 of Chaurideurali Rural Municipality, the courtyard of Saraswoti Secondary School was filled with more than the usual sounds of lessons and laughter. Instead of regular classes, the day was dedicated to something equally important:health.

A one-day school health camp was organized on February 12, 2026 at the school premises under the leadership of Dr. Rajesh Kumar Thakur from DCWC Community Hospital. The initiative aimed to provide basic health screening and medical consultation to the students, ensuring that their physical well-being supports their academic journey.

From early morning, disciplined students lined up patiently for registration and check-ups. Teachers assisted in maintaining order, and the atmosphere remained calm and cooperative throughout the day. By the end of the camp, a total of 195 students had undergone health examinations. Among them, 111 were female students and 84 were male students.

The medical team encountered a range of common health concerns. Several students were found to be suffering from fungal infections, headaches, cough, sore throat, common cold, dental caries, ear problems, and upper respiratory tract (URT) infections. After careful examination, necessary medicines were distributed on-site, and students were given guidance on hygiene, nutrition, and preventive care. For many of the children, this was their first comprehensive health screening in a long time.

Dr. Rajesh Kumar Thakur led the medical team with dedication and professionalism. He was supported by Pharmacy Assistant Pasang Syangtan, Nursing In-charge Sarada Karki, volunteer Dr. Katerina Spackova, health volunteer and pharmacy assistant Katarina Bila, ambulance driver Tek Bahadur Thapa Magar, school nurse Karishma Sunuwar, and CMA Nirmala oli. Each member played a vital role in ensuring the smooth and effective completion of the health camp.

The cooperation of the school teachers, staff, and students was equally commendable. Their coordination and discipline significantly contributed to the success of the program. The school administration also requested for a Blood identification Program for the students , which the hospital team happily agreed to prepare for future follow-up and continuity of care.

As the sun began to set behind the hills, the medical team packed up their equipment and prepared to return to the hospital. Our team left with a promise to visit again, to continue supporting the health of the children, and to strengthen the bond between the community and healthcare services.

The one-day school health camp was not just a medical event; it was a reminder that education and health go hand in hand. When children are healthy, they learn better, grow stronger, and dream bigger. And on February 12, 2026, in a small school in Dhuseni Shivalaya, that truth was clearly visible.

A Small Step Toward Brighter Smiles: Our Dental Health Outreach Journey To 3 Schools

9 January 2026 (2082/9/25) marked a meaningful day for our hospital team as we took another step toward improving community dental health. With the belief that healthy habits begin at a young age, our dental outreach program was carried out across several primary schools, focusing on awareness, prevention, and care.

The journey began at Shree Chaurikhola Primary School, located in Chauri Deurali Rural Municipality–Ward No. 2. Our hospital’s Dental Surgeon, Dr. Sabina Suwal, led the session with great care and warmth. She patiently demonstrated proper tooth-brushing techniques and explained the importance of daily oral hygiene in a way that young students could easily understand.

A total of 13 students participated in the program—6 girls and 7 boys—each eager to learn and actively involved throughout the session. At the end of the program, every student received a toothbrush and toothpaste, ensuring they could immediately put their new knowledge into practice. The smiles on their faces reflected not just excitement, but empowerment.

Following this, the team conducted a similar dental awareness program at Mahakali Primary School, also located in Chauri Deurali Rural Municipality–Ward No. 2. Here, 12 students took part in the session, including 8 girls and 4 boys. Once again, students were taught the correct methods of cleaning their teeth and maintaining oral hygiene. The program concluded with the distribution of toothbrushes and toothpaste to all participants, reinforcing the importance of consistency in dental care.

Our outreach then extended to Shree Darga Primary School, situated in Doramba Sailung Rural Municipality–Ward No. 4, Darga. This dental camp reached a larger group, with 23 students (9 female and 14 male) receiving hands-on guidance on proper oral hygiene practices. Toothpaste and brushes were distributed, and dental checkups were conducted as part of the camp.

Across all outreach activities, a total of 48 participants were involved, supported by only one vehicles for mobility and logistics. During the dental examinations, 10 individuals successfully underwent tooth extraction, while many others were identified as needing further cleaning and preventive dental care. These findings highlighted the urgent need for continued dental awareness and early intervention among students.

This initiative was not just about cleaning teeth—it was about preserving smiles, building healthy habits, and creating awareness for a lifetime. The success of this program would not have been possible without the wholehearted support of the school administrations, teachers, students, and the entire school community.

We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who participated and supported this effort. Together, we are making a difference—one smile at a time.
