CARE
Total Health is committed to delivering world-class healthcare to remote areas in India. In areas where establishing physical clinics is not feasible, we employ mobile clinics and medical camps to extend our services to villages and forests. This ensures that essential healthcare reaches even the most inaccessible regions, guaranteeing everyone the care they deserve.
Health Consults
MOBILE CLINICS
These are vans equipped with drug stores, a laboratory, a generator and running water, that cover villages in Thavanampalle and Irala mandal. The driver takes a doctor, a nurse and a technician to the doorstep of villagers, where they are offered outpatient services. The space where the vans park, is marked out in consultation with the village leaders, and can be anything from a temple complex, a community-owned property, or even the canopy of a large tree.

SATELLITE CLINICS
Shortly after the mobile clinics began operations, two satellite clinics were inaugurated in Thavanampalle and Irala, so the interior rural community could access healthcare. Most patients in Aragonda suffer from hypertension and diabetes that need periodic management and following up. In Amrabad, the satellite clinic in Mallapur mainly treats Chenchu tribal people, who often come with nutritional deficiencies and seasonal and hygiene related illnesses.

INTEGRATED NEW MOTHERS CARE PROGRAMME
AYUSH
Total Health began the practice of Ayurveda in November 2015, in Aragonda, as a pilot project with the aim of recreating interest and restoring faith in traditional Indian systems of healing. To make it more accessible, the delivery mechanism was restructured, and outpatient treatment along with therapies like panchakarma were introduced. As part of their holistic approach, Total Health also reintroduced yoga in 27 villages and 27 Government schools through a team of 9 trainers.
