Bokaro: Vedanta ESL Steel Limited recently organised two successful Mega Health Camps in Bokaro district under its Project MACE Healthcare initiative. Hosted at the Vedanta Cares Field Hospital in Sector 6, the camp focused on the healthcare of senior citizens and was supported by Medicant Hospital.
Esteemed doctors from various departments such as Orthopaedics, Ophthalmology, and Endocrinology provided comprehensive medical consultations, including screenings for blood pressure, blood sugar, and thyroid levels. Chief Guest Digvijay Kumar Singh, IG of CISF, highlighted Vedanta’s invaluable support during the COVID-19 pandemic.
