Silently crossing hurdles to deliver on healthcare promise

Silently crossing hurdles to deliver on healthcare promise

The Hindu
Wednesday, December 8, 2021 6:30 PM GMT

ANMs face multiple challenges every day as they take medicare to remote areas

Trudging through treacherous terrains, walking in dense forests and keeping an eye out for wild boars or snakes, wading across a stream or rivulet... This may sound like an adventurous weekend plan to thrill-seeking urbanites, but it is, in fact, the daily experience of hundreds of Auxiliary Nursing Midwives (ANMs) in Telangana. These grassroot-level healthcare workers deliver crucial medical services to people in remote corners of the State.

Officials of the Health department say they depend on ANMs, apart from Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs), for the implementation of any major or even minor public health project of the State government. There are around 6,000 ANMs belonging to different categories in the State. That includes 4,200 women employed as ‘Second ANMs’.

Sir Sivaswami Kalalaya school’s silver jubilee celebration culminates in an evening of gratefulness and cultural expression

SSK Matriculation Senior Secondary School witnessed a heartwarming and vibrant evening, one that tried handsomely to telescope 25 years into a few fleeting hours under a spotlight. To think one could run through 25 years in 2.5 hours or thereabouts is akin to expecting a snowflake to stay intact in a burning cauldron. But the alumni, students and the school management presented the ethos that has driven those 25 years of education. The event, which marked the culmination of the Silver Jubilee Celebrations of Sir Sivaswami Kalalaya Matriculation Senior Secondary School, chose gratefulness and allowed the various constituencies -- the school management, alumni, staff, students and parents -- to bask in the moment. It was a soiree in which students and alumni displayed their skills designed just for a stage and an audience . The highlight was a video by the alumni that stitched together individual memories and institutional achievements.
