The Aundh Public Health Centre located in Aundh, Pune India, is a centre that offers free health care treatment to the poor and needy. Limited infrastructure and resources cannot cope up with the ever-increasing patient load. Missing are proper ventilated waiting area with seats and fans for comfort of patients and their care givers, safe clean drinking water provisions, clean toilets, hand washing and sanitizing facilities, separate immunization/vaccination wards, protection devices for medical staff like PPE, including patient separation partitions, additional cabinets for storage and screened examining beds and vaccination tables, which this project will provide. A team of well-trained but limited medical staff and non-medical staff offer various medical services at this primary centre. The current average footfall of patients is 250-300 daily and is increasing year on year and there is an urgent need for an improved facility with decent infrastructure. Free consulting health services are provided only to the needy patients in the vicinity of Aundh including normal baby deliveries, antenatal care and children vaccination services (routine immunization) plus normal outpatient health care. This centre also caters testing and treatment of tuberculosis and leprosy patients, besides anti-rabies shots for dog bites. A Pathology laboratory for blood, urine and sputum testing and a basic stocked pharmacy form part of the health centre.
