Healthcare

Leprosy is a disease that can cause serious complications, all of which require medical treatment. Through our network of hospitals, clinics, mobile clinics, and orthopaedic workshops, we offer the support that people need to lead healthy, happy lives of dignity and respect.

Through our healthcare centres we provide reconstructive surgeries, physiotherapy, assistive devices, treatment of ulcers and leprosy reaction, and counselling. Through these services we are able to address all of the medical needs that a person affected might face because of the disease.
