Report on Fungal Infection Check-Up Camp for BMC Safai Karamchari
The Debabrata Mitalee Auro Foundation, in collaboration with The Esthetic Clinics, organized a Fungal Infection Check-Up Camp for BMC Safai Karamchari on 13th November 2025 at Parel. The camp aimed to address the growing concern of fungal infections among sanitation workers—individuals who are routinely exposed to environments that heighten their risk of skin-related ailments. Expert dermatologists conducted free and thorough medical examinations to identify infections at an early stage. Participants also received personalized consultations focused on symptoms, causes, treatment options, and preventive measures.
In addition to diagnosis and counseling, prescribed medications were distributed free of cost to ensure immediate and effective treatment. The initiative significantly improved access to quality dermatological care for Safai Karamchari, many of whom may face barriers to seeking timely medical assistance. By promoting awareness and encouraging preventive practices, the camp contributed to enhancing the overall health and well-being of frontline sanitation workers, reinforcing the importance of community health initiatives that prioritize vulnerable occupational groups.
