In the center of India’s rural areas, IGF-India‘s Care on Wheels Mobile Health Units (MHUs) are transforming healthcare delivery. These medical vans, traveling from Padmavati in Maharashtra to distant tribal regions, provide essential services such as doctors and diagnostic tools directly to the locals.
For Laxmibai and Dadarao Maske, who once had no access to medical care, the MHU offered crucial support, revitalizing their health and well-being. Reaching more than 500,000 people in 21 states, this effective approach combines mobility with community trust, health education, and tech-based follow-ups. With each trip, IGF demonstrates that healthcare can be both reachable and compassionate, even in the most remote areas where hospitals are merely a dream.
