‘Swaasth’: Shahi Exports, Indian Stroke Foundation, and CCSE Transform Healthcare in Faridabad, Noida, and Ghaziabad

In a groundbreaking initiative to enhance healthcare accessibility and quality in the National Capital Region, Shahi Exports, the Indian Stroke Foundation (ISF), and the Centre for Community and Social Empowerment (CCSE) have come together to launch the ‘Swaasth’ project. This collaborative effort aims to address critical health challenges in the urban areas of Faridabad, Noida, and Ghaziabad, focusing primarily on stroke awareness, prevention, and rehabilitation.

CCSE, the division of Innovative Project Management Services Pvt Ltd (CSR Consulting Firm) explains that the project is categorically formulated and designed to cater to the healthcare needs of the underprivileged and marginalised section of the community. The project aims to bridge the primary healthcare accessibility gap for those who are often disregarded or have restricted access to healthcare.

This involves women, elderly and children, for often these groups challenges when it comes to access to healthcare.

The Need for Transformation

The regions of Faridabad, Noida, and Ghaziabad have experienced rapid urbanization and population growth, leading to increased healthcare demands. However, access to quality healthcare services, particularly for non-communicable diseases like strokes, remains limited. According to recent studies, strokes are one of the leading causes of mortality and disability in India. Despite this alarming trend, many individuals lack awareness of risk factors and early symptoms, resulting in delayed treatment and poor outcomes.

Recognizing this gap, Shahi Exports, a leading garment manufacturer with a strong commitment to corporate social responsibility, partnered with ISF and CCSE to implement the ‘Swaasth’ initiative. The project is designed to create a comprehensive framework for stroke prevention and rehabilitation, ultimately saving lives and improving health outcomes in the region.

Key Components of ‘Swaasth’

The ‘Swaasth’ project encompasses several critical components aimed at transforming healthcare delivery:

Awareness Campaigns: The initiative kicks off with extensive awareness campaigns targeting communities in Faridabad, Noida, and Ghaziabad. Through workshops, seminars, and outreach programs, residents are educated about the risk factors associated with strokes, including hypertension, diabetes, and unhealthy lifestyle choices. The campaign emphasizes the importance of recognizing early warning signs and seeking prompt medical assistance.

Screening and Prevention: To further facilitate early detection, ‘Swaasth’ offers free health screenings in collaboration with local healthcare providers. These screenings include blood pressure checks, blood sugar tests, and risk assessments for stroke. By identifying at-risk individuals early, the project aims to implement preventive measures and lifestyle modifications.

Rehabilitation Programs: For stroke survivors, the project provides rehabilitation programs designed to aid recovery and improve quality of life. These programs include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and psychological support. Trained professionals work with patients to develop personalized rehabilitation plans, helping them regain independence and reintegrate into their communities.

Capacity Building for Healthcare Providers: To ensure the sustainability of the initiative, ‘Swaasth’ includes training programs for healthcare professionals in the region. These programs focus on the latest advancements in stroke care, enabling local doctors and nurses to provide high-quality services and improve patient outcomes.


Impact and Future Directions

Since its launch, ‘Swaasth’ has already made a significant impact in the target regions. Hundreds of community members have participated in awareness workshops, and thousands have benefited from free health screenings. The initiative has not only raised awareness about stroke prevention but has also fostered a culture of health consciousness among residents.

Looking ahead, the ‘Swaasth’ project aims to expand its reach and enhance its offerings. Future plans include developing mobile health units to reach underserved areas, creating an online platform for telemedicine consultations, and establishing partnerships with additional healthcare organizations to broaden the initiative’s impact.

Conclusion

The collaboration between Shahi Exports, the Indian Stroke Foundation, and CCSE through the ‘Swaasth’ initiative represents a significant step towards transforming healthcare in Faridabad, Noida, and Ghaziabad. By focusing on awareness, prevention, and rehabilitation, this project addresses the pressing need for better stroke care and promotes a healthier community. As the initiative continues to evolve, it serves as a model for similar efforts across the country, demonstrating the power of collaboration in driving positive change in healthcare.
