Organized by the Faculty of Paramedical Science and supported by AdtU’s Extension and Outreach Club, the camp aimed to boost health awareness and provide essential healthcare services to school children and residents in the university’s adopted villages.
The week-long camp took place on campus and in nearby villages, offering services like vision screening, physiotherapy assessments, nutrition counseling, dental hygiene checks, and blood pressure and blood sugar testing. Over 200 community members and 90 on-campus participants benefited from early health screenings and preventive care.
