Fortis Hospital, Kalyan, celebrated the International Women’s Day by organizing a medical health check-up camp for Policewomen of Dombivli, Kalyan up till Ambernath. This initiative helped the Policewomen to celebrate their acts of courage & determination and their extraordinary role in the society. Driving the International Women’s Day theme for 2016 - “Planet 50-50 by 2030: Step It Up for Gender Equality”, Fortis Hospital, Kalyan, through this initiative focused on safeguarding the health of city’s guardians. Hon Rajendra Devlekar, Mayor, KDMC and Hon Sharad Shelar, Additional Commissioner of Police, Kalyan-Dombivli, inaugurated the drive.

Women generally prioritise their family’s health over their own; this leads to delay in diagnosing and addressing health issues in early stages – this camp provided reports and guidance that will help take corrective steps. The two-day health check-up camp, conducted on 8th and 9th March, 2016 witnessed about 200 Policewomen undergoing screenings and getting advice from Gynaecologists & General Physicians.
