Health & Nutrition
India is experiencing a significant rise in non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer that are a leading cause of mortality. Further, maternal and child mortality rates remain grim in rural areas. With a vision to foster an equitable society where everyone, across all age groups, can lead a healthy and productive life.
The Adani Foundation focuses on both preventive and curative healthcare solutions. Our commitment for improving the health and nutrition status of the neediest sections of the society has taken the shape of several projects. This includes mobile healthcare units and health camps for primary care, rural clinics and hospitals for secondary and tertiary care, and project SuPoshan to combat malnutrition and anaemia by empowering village-level volunteers as SuPoshan Sanginis.

Mobile Health Care Units
The Adani Foundation is actively engaged in operating Mobile Health Care Units (MHCUs) that deliver immediate medical assistance to patients residing in distant and underserved areas. By bringing quality health care services directly to the doorsteps of those in need, the MHCUs are making a significant impact in remote villages. The services provided by these units have proven successful in not only treating patients and raising awareness about health issues but also in helping beneficiaries save valuable time and money that would have otherwise been spent on transportation, consultations, and medications.
