DR.PRAKASH AMTE

THESE ANIMALS WERE BROUGHT HERE BY TRIBALS EITHER IN AN INJURED STATE OF AS ORPHANS............
WE WERE QUIET TAKEN ABACK BY THE EASE WITH WHICH DR . AMTE WAS INTERACTING WITH THESE ANIMALS.......LIKE HES KNOWN THEM ALL THEIR LIFE..............
BUT SOME OF US DIDNOT LIKE THIS AS THEY FELT THAT THIS "ANIMAL SHOW" AMOUNTS TO MISTREATMENT .........
WELL EACH ONE IS ENTITLED TO OUR OPINION BUT THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT THE GOOD WORK BEING CARRIED ON HERE..........

INNOVATIVE INPATIENT FACILITY AT HEMALKASA

A UNIQUE WAY TO ENSURE THAT TRIBAL PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC ILLNESSES TAKE THEIR TREATMENT REGULARLY......THEY ARE PROVIDED WITH A PLACE WHERE THEY CAN LIVE WITH THEIR FAMILY . THIS ENSURES THAT THEY STAY PUT AND COMPLETE THE TREATMENT.
ALSO THERE IS A REHABILITATION CENTRE FOR LEPROSY PATIENTS WITH VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE ....................
