Mobile Medical Units (MMU)

Mobile Medical Units (MMU) was introduced with the objective of making healthcare more accessible to the larger population of rural India. It was initiated to ensure that basic and essential healthcare facilities are made accessible and affordable to senior citizens, financially weak families and to people in remote areas. These MMUs provide facilities free of cost, emergency relief and also helps transport people to hospitals if required. Help Age India, Honda's implementation partner for this initiative, runs these MMUs which are equipped with an MBBS doctor, nurse, social mobilizer and a driver. Services include checking blood pressure, testing for diabetes, general consultations, advice on personal hygiene and cleanliness of the surrounding.

When Honda officials visited the location, they found out that there was no proper storage facility in the village for household supply and the current water storage tank in the village was in a dilapidated condition with several leakages.

Healthcare to the Hut

Bringing Healthcare to the Doorstep

The challenge that the vast majority of India's rural population face is accessing affordable quality healthcare. To help end this discrepancy in the availability of healthcare services, Honda 2Wheelers initiated a flagship project “Healthcare to Hut”. This project aims to conduct essential medical tests such as Blood Pressure, Blood Sugar, Blood Haemoglobin, Heart rate, Routine blood grouping, Pulse Oxymetry, Body Mass Index and Typhoid, Malaria, Syphilis and ECG free of cost for poor villagers. It also provides Ante Natal Care (ANC) to pregnant women under the supervision of women doctors and supervisions.

This project provides benefits to its beneficiaries in case of emergencies by pre-identifying blood groups if a sudden need for blood transfusion arises, or by pre-identifying beneficiaries who are at risk of developing diseases like hypertension and diabetes.

Recommendations for improving lifestyle changes at an early stage helps beneficiaries become more aware of their problems and how to help improve their health. The health records of the examined villagers are maintained and are shared with Government health authorities for further reference.
