Uttarakhand Rolls Out Mobile Medical Units to Boost Healthcare Access

The Uttarakhand government has launched nine mobile medical units to improve healthcare delivery across both rural and urban areas of the state.

Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami flagged off the vans from his residence in Nagla Tarai, Khatima, as part of a public–private partnership involving The Hans Foundation, Hindustan Zinc, and Mamta.  Of the nine, eight vehicles were contributed by The Hans Foundation and one jointly by Hindustan Zinc and Mamta.

These units will provide primary health services including medical consultations, diagnostic tests, and basic treatments to communities that find it hard to reach hospitals or clinics.  In particular, four units will operate in Udham Singh Nagar and four in Nainital, covering remote villages such as Gadarpur and Kichha.

Each mobile unit will be staffed by a doctor, a nurse, and a counsellor to carry out checkups, advice, and essential care in field settings.  According to Dhami, these vans are expected to play a critical role in bridging the rural–urban healthcare divide and ensuring timely medical help reaches underserved populations.
