Emergency Services

Amma has provided immediate aid and relief in response to calamities such as floods, droughts, earthquakes and fires. During such natural disasters Amma has distributed food and clothing to several hundreds of people very quickly and efficiently. In 2001 about 300 homes were burned down leaving the people homeless. Amma provided them with certain essential items and cash to restart their lives.  In 2004 when an earthquake off the coast of Indonesia caused the most destructive tsunami ever recorded to sweep across the Indian Ocean which killed over 100,000 people, Amma immediately dispatched food, clothing, doctors, and medicine from the newly open Sri Narayani Hospital and Research Centre to help those adversely effected by the destruction of the tidal waves that hit the southern coast of India.

Community Health

The Hospital has created community health teams that regularly visit the towns and villages surrounding the Peedam. The health teams provide regular screening for all men, women and children in the village and when needed medical care in the hospital.  To connect with each community and begin fostering economic development, the hospital hires and trains a member of the village to be their community health worker.
