In an effort to support health awareness and encourage the local community to be informed about their blood types, Dr. Ambedkar Institute of Medical Science (DAIMS) and Indira Memorial Industrial Training Centre (IMITC) organized a Blood Grouping Camp at Jhirpani High School. This event aimed to provide blood group identification to students, faculty, and the local residents of Jhirpani and promote overall health awareness.

  2. Blood Grouping Tests:

    • The event successfully conducted over 300 blood grouping tests, helping individuals identify their blood type and ensuring they are well-prepared for any medical situations that may require blood transfusions.

  3. Collaboration and Support:

    • The camp was organized in collaboration with local healthcare professionals and supported by 30 student volunteers from both DAIMS and IMITC who helped facilitate the event, guide participants, and ensure smooth operations.
    • The Jhirpani High School staff played an essential role in coordinating the event and providing necessary support.

  4. Health Awareness and Education:

    • Along with blood grouping, health awareness sessions were held, where experts spoke about the importance of knowing one’s blood type, the role of blood donation, and general health maintenance.

Impact of the Event

  • Awareness Boost:

    • The event significantly raised awareness about the importance of knowing one’s blood group, which can be crucial in emergency medical situations.
