Affairs of Graduate school of Public Health and Health Policy, City
university of New York (CUNY), USA and founder of Foundation of

Swasthya
Pahal utilizes interactive multi-lingual, touch screen computer
program that gathers data related to social-demographics, clinical
history, and health behaviours. In addition, objective data including
weight, blood Pressure, and blood Sugar, is calculated. SMAART health
card is generated to show individual risk profile. Individualized
feedback is given by trained lifestyle counselling experts.
In
the camp, The Consumers bought Pouch, Sling Bag, Phone Cover and 4
people got themselves screened under Swasthya Pahal Initiative.
We
aim to provide platform to urban slum women and girls to not only be
independent but also support their families, Nurture their dreams,
create their own identity and be a source of inspiration to many.
In addition, objective data gathered includes height, weight, blood pressure, and blood sugar. An evidence based decision rule engine then generates a SMAART™ health card for each individual. Based on the individual risk findings, the system provides an individualized lifestyle feedback supported by trained lifestyle counselling experts.
