Health

In the densely populated areas of Delhi’s northeast district, where medical amenities are scarce, and awareness of basic health, hygiene, and nutritional practices is limited, Sofia identified a pressing need to introduce healthcare services. This need was particularly acute for women, especially those who are pregnant or nursing, who lacked adequate healthcare support.

Sofia Imaging & Diagnostic Centre (SIDC)

In response, the Sofia Imaging & Diagnostic Centre (SIDC) was inaugurated in August 2022 within the Old Mustafabad area. This ISO-certified centre is the first facility in the area to offer a comprehensive range of diagnostic tests, including ultrasound, at affordable rates, and is a testament to Sofia’s commitment to providing much-needed healthcare services in the community. To ensure that even the most marginalized can access top-notch diagnostic services, SIDC offers significant discounts on all tests. It also provides home collection services.

Sofia Paramedical and Management Institute (SPMI)

The Sofia Paramedical and Management Institute (SPMI) serves as an educational branch of Sofia, training young individuals as paramedics—a profession in high demand. Accredited by the National Institute of Open Schooling, the institute offers a range of courses, including diplomas and degrees in medical laboratory technology. Through a network of partnering hospitals, SPMI ensures practical exposure and training as well as employment opportunities. SPMI stands out as a premier institution for healthcare education.

Shakeela Begum Charitable Dispensary

In addition to these health endeavours, Sofia operates Shakeela Begum Charitable Dispensary in Mustafabad, staffed by a dedicated team of doctors from various specialties, including a gynaecologist. Through this initiative, Sofia is providing medical consultation and medicine in just Rs.20/- rupees. Bi-monthly health camps cater to hundreds of women and children, providing not only medical consultations but also free medication, in partnership with the Directorate of Health Services, Government of Delhi. Moreover, Sofia holds regular awareness meetings and counselling sessions on nutrition and health, emphasizing the importance of regular check-ups for pregnant women.

These initiatives are designed not just to treat but to educate and prevent health issues. Sofia’s health camps serve to raise awareness, diagnose problems early, and facilitate more affordable treatment options, including subsidized hospital care for those requiring advanced medical care. Through these comprehensive healthcare services, Sofia is creating a healthier, more informed community.
