On the first floor screening by students, and consultation with physicians was arranged. Students were divided into groups of 2 for registration, 2 for dispensing, 6 for screening, two for patient movement on rotation basis. Girl students took turn to see the colonoscopy being done.

There were fewer turn out of beneficiaries than expected. Some women expressed that many could not come due to marriages in the village and a funeral to attend.

We have identified 15 Gyneac cases for active follow up on priority.

Lessons learnt from this camp:

For students:

  • Organizing a camp in a resource lack setting
  • Screening of large number of patients and presenting to physician
  • Behavioural requirements in a rural setting
  • Colposcopy and comparing healthy and unhealthy cervix
  • With just 100+ patients, they could take detailed history and examined patients
  • Experiencing community serviceLearning for community medicine:
  • While selecting a date, we must rule out major social events in the village which keeps people engaged as a priority. This time there were 4 marriages in the village owing to which many could not come for camp. Some managed to come straight from marriage party.
  • There is a need for common way of writing in the papers by students, for which we must prepare a list of terminologies and how the complaints should be recorded in case sheet should be explained.
  • Ask some topic related questions to students and make them come prepared
    Sincerely,

Dr Sudhamathi. SM.
