HEALTH SURVEY
As a part of BHMS curriculum, the Department of Community Medicine
organises Health Survey for the final BHMS students to acquaint themselves
about health issues of the society, to identify the factors influencing
the diseases, adopt preventive strategies and to implement curative measures.
As a process, specific area from Grama Panchayat / Village is first identified
with the help of officials/personals of the Panchayat concerned. Each and every
house of the locality is visited by the students under the guidance of faculty
and necessary data in detail are collected in a prescribed format. Thus the
collected data are analysed and patients identified if any are referred to
collegiate hospital for treatment. As a follow up procedure, the institution
conducts medical camps and awareness programmes on health issues care. The
collected data are thereafter handed over to the officials of Health
Department. Similar Health Surveys are also conducted by the Internees as a
part of extension activity of the institution. The Head of the Department of
Community Medicine is the Co-ordinator of Health Survey.
