Apollo Hospitals hosts special event for kids to celebrate Children’s Day


Event puts focus on child’s right to health 
 
Navi Mumbai, 16 November 2022: Children’s Day is celebrated across the country to honour children and promote awareness of their education and welfare. This Children’s Day, Apollo Hospitals, one of Asia's largest and most trusted healthcare group, put the focus on a child’s right to health by hosting a special event for children at select Apollo Hospitals across India. Welcoming children who have been part of the Apollo family as patients to a specially decorated area in the hospital; the paediatricians, nurses and staff showed their fun side as they participated with the kids in various fun-filled activities and games.

The children accompanied by their parents saw a different side of the hospital, decorated with a new look for Children’s Day. The celebrations started with few past patients doing a clinician’s role play where they met the patients in paediatric wards, OPD & motivated them with their experience. Past paediatric patients as well as children of our staff participated in the fun & games which included a magic show, tattoo artist & dance party. 
After the fun events, the children and their parents were treated to delicious healthy lunch and they left with a gift hamper that delighted the kids. But not before a group picture with the doctors and staff to save the memory of the happy occasion for eternity!

Mr. Santosh Marathe, Regional CEO Western Region, Apollo Hospitals, Navi Mumbai said, ‘Our children represent our future. It is our responsibility to ensure that they are given all opportunities to bloom and grow in to happy adults who can make a positive contribution to society. We are glad that we could take care of these children and bring them back to health. Apollo Hospitals Navi Mumbai performs complex sub-speciality work in paediatrics including liver, oncology, cardiology & genetic medicine.

The event is a small token of thanks to the parents and children putting their trust in us. The uninhibited joy and laughter of these innocent children are our reward. At Apollo, we believe that every child deserves the best of healthcare in addition to the basic needs of food, shelter and education.’
