Voices from the field.

I have been receiving dialysis treatment for over a year through SS Care Trust. Earlier, dialysis outside would cost around ₹3,500 per session, which was difficult for us to afford. Initially, I was unsure whether the free treatment would provide the same level of care. But after starting dialysis here, I have been very happy with the treatment and care provided by the doctors and staff. The free dialysis service has been a great financial support for our family. I am very thankful to SS Care Trust for providing this valuable service and taking such good care of patients like me.

My daughter received free delivery services through SS Care Trust for both her first and second babies. We registered with SS Care Trust when she was five months pregnant, and from then until her delivery and the day she went home, we did not spend a single rupee. Outside, it would have cost us ₹50,000 to ₹60,000. The doctors and nurses looked after her and the baby very well. Because Prabha madam started SS Care Trust, families like ours get this help.

My name is Kandu Banjara, and I am from Sevanagar Village. Our village has a population of around 5,000 people, and no health camp had been organized here before. We are very grateful to SS Care Trust for organizing this free health check-up camp and bringing essential healthcare services closer to our community. This initiative has been a great help to the villagers.

Over two days, all our Class 10 students visited BIET Engineering College and the MBA college. Seeing that environment, the children realised they too have the ability and creativity to do such things, and we saw a real change in them. Even students who had been staying away from school now want to come. They also learned what goals to set for their lives and how they should study to reach them. It was truly a golden opportunity for our children.

I attended the Jeevarakshana workshop conducted by SS Care Trust. It was a very informative and interesting session on BLS (Basic Life Support) and First Aid. We all know what CPR is, but many of us do not know how to perform it correctly, what steps to follow, or how long CPR should be given. What I found most useful was the practical training, which helped us understand and learn CPR properly. I really enjoyed the session and found it very valuable. I encourage everyone to attend such sessions and learn these important life-saving skills.

I believe HPV vaccination is important and provides valuable health benefits. I have two sons, aged 13 and 14, and both have received their recommended HPV vaccinations. They have completed both doses. I am 38 years old, and I have also received all three recommended doses. I am very happy that SS Care Trust is providing HPV vaccination at an affordable cost, especially through the special second Saturday offer. I encourage everyone to make use of this opportunity and get vaccinated for better health.

My name is Rudresh, and I am the Manager of Sri Siddaroodha Old Age Home in Basavapatna. For the past two years, SS Care Trust has been providing valuable support to our old age home. We are especially grateful that they have organized two free health camps for our residents. It brings us great happiness to see the entire medical team visit our home and provide health check-ups and medical care to all 38 elderly residents. 11 residents have also received cataract surgery through their support. We sincerely thank SS Care Trust for their continued care, support, and valuable healthcare services to our elderly residents.

Earlier, there were limited opportunities in Davangere for quality coaching for competitive examinations. Through Sankalpa, we now have access to experienced trainers and structured guidance to prepare for competitive exams like the IAS. Many of us come from rural backgrounds, and the training and accommodation provided through this programme have been a great support. The regular guidance and assessments have improved my knowledge, confidence, and preparation. I am grateful to SS Care Trust for giving students like us this valuable opportunity to pursue our goals.

For fifteen days, Harish sir had been working to arrange a first-aid session from SS Care Trust specially for us auto drivers, and today it happened. Because we auto drivers spend most of our working lives on the road, they explained what to do when an emergency happens suddenly. SS Care Trust taught our drivers all of this in detail, we have learned it, and it has been very useful. In the coming days we will spread this awareness to many more drivers. We thank Shri S.S. Mallikarjun and Dr. Prabha Mallikarjun, who run the Trust.

Everyone spoke well of the screening. It has helped the women of our villages a great deal: they have no information about cancer, and they do not go looking for it either. This programme gave them a lot of information. On behalf of Kaidale Gram Panchayat and all the women of our sanghas, I thank Prabha madam.

It would not be wrong to say that it is a matter of great happiness that SS Care Trust, Davangere provides every one of these services free of charge. Not only our Bhanuvalli village but the neighbouring villages too, Lakshettihalli, Kambalapura, Ekkegondi, Ramatheertha, Nagenahalli and Belludi, have made good use of it. Thank you.

The free dialysis at SS Care Trust has been a big help to us. We need dialysis twice a week. Anywhere else, each session costs ₹1,600, and with injections and tablets it comes to ₹2,000 to ₹2,500. That is almost ₹5,000 a week, and at least ₹20,000 to ₹25,000 a month.
