This strategic partnership aims to drive
holistic healthcare of students and their connected communities to enable a
healthier and more conducive learning environment.
Fischer MV-TAG collaboration in India
will start with screening students through Fischer MV’s Flynn Health Kiosk, a
health screening machine that conducts a comprehensive diagnostic of over 60
clinical vital signs parameters within minutes. Eye health, audiology, oral health,
mental health, lung & respiratory health checks which are important aspects
for students will also be implemented in phases. In parallel, adolescent girls
and women’s health will be added to provide a holistic view of each student’s
health status every quarterly. Fischer MV-TAG program will also extend beyond
students to rope in their parents, teachers, and school communities to achieve
the combined mission to foster a healthy connected learning community. As of
2022, India has around 1.4 million schools, one of the largest in the world
(https:// www.statista.com/statistics). Student enrolment in 2021-22 was
reported to be over 265 million (https://educationforallinindia.com). However, a significant number of
students suffer from some health conditions that could hinder their education
path. A comprehensive health management program such as Fischer MV-TAG can
help by promoting regular health screenings in schools for preventive health
care among students and the surrounding community.
Fischer MV- TAG collaboration is
poised to set a new standard in student health management, combining innovative healthcare
technology with comprehensive and hybrid educational programs, to ensure every
student could succeed academically and thrive healthily.
This
initiative will not only improve individual health outcomes but also contribute
to the broader goal of enhancing public health infrastructure in India.
