Anant National University, India’s first DesignX University based in Ahmedabad, has launched a new 24/7 medical service facility on campus in partnership with Blue Circle Medi Services, ensuring round-the-clock access to comprehensive healthcare for all community members.
The enhanced facility builds on the previous setup, which included a full-time nurse and a visiting doctor to address ill-health, first-aid and emergencies. The new infirmary features a four-bed daycare unit staffed by qualified nursing professionals and a doctor available around the clock. Equipped with necessary health monitoring tools, the facility can administer IV fluids, perform wound dressings, and provide essential medical treatments, along with a well-stocked inventory of essential medicines for prompt attention to common health issues. Recognizing the importance of advanced medical support, Anant National University has also established tie-ups with nearby hospitals to ensure seamless access to tertiary care when needed.
To further support the mental well-being of students and staff, a qualified counsellor will be available during the day, with 24/7 access for urgent mental health concerns. This initiative fosters a supportive environment that prioritizes both mental and physical health. Blue Circle offers comprehensive medical care and specialized mental health support, making it a trusted partner in safeguarding the health of the university community.
Dr. Anunaya Chaubey, Provost of Anant National University, stated, “This initiative ensures round-the-clock on-campus access to good quality healthcare for the well-being of our community. By fostering an environment that encourages open dialogue and actively works to destigmatize mental health issues, the university is setting a new standard in holistic education and care.”
