Over 2,000 students of Everwin Matriculation Higher Secondary School, Kolathur were thoroughly screened by a big team of doctors, nurses and assistants from Apollo Hospitals, the No.1 hospital group in India.

The school’s KG auditorium which was the venue of the medical camp was buzz with activity from December 4 to 9 as the students’ blood, eye, heart, ear, nose and the general condition were examined by the doctors.

A report containing the findings of the examination and prescriptions wherever necessary was submitted to the parents of each student. All classes – from KG to Plus Two – were involved in the exercise.

Students were also issued an ID card that gives them exclusive benefit of availing concessions in Apollo Hospitals for their family and a 10 per cent discount in purchases made at the Apollo pharmacies for a year.

This is the fourth year that the Everwin-Apollo joint exercise was undertaken. Everwin is the only school in this part of the city that has been doing this – caring for its students’ health.
