The Vellore Corporation is set to inaugurate 15 new urban health and wellness centres soon to ensure easy availability of healthcare facilities to residents in small neighbourhoods.
Corporation officials said the centres were built under the National Urban Health Mission (NUHM) of the Central government to provide outpatient services in each locality in the mornings and evenings. “The centres will address the health needs of residents at micro-level. Chief Minister M.K. Stalin is expected to inaugurate these facilities through video-conference soon,” Mr. Ganesan, Chief Health Officer (CHO) of Vellore Corporation, told The Hindu.
