Amputch also highlighted her visits to the islands, villages, and schools to conduct echo screenings, which greatly benefited many children enabling early identification and treatment of their health issues.

Founder of the One World One Family Foundation and Sai Sanjeevani Children’s Hospital Sri Madhusudan Sai emphasises the need to train local health specialists who can provide essential services to the community.

Sai adds they plan to expand their services not only for children but also for men and women in need of heart surgery.
