Health camps :
Zydus Cadila organises annual healthcare camps at Moraiya, a village adjacent to its plant premises.
So far, general diagnostic, dental healthcare, vaccination, paediatric, eye care, hypertension and blood sugar detection camps have been organised.The response to these camps is so overwhelming that villagers from nearby villages throng the village school premises where the camps are held.The earthquake, which struck Gujarat in January 2001, left a trail of death and destruction in its wake. Zydus Cadila set up a 24 hour helpline at its headquarters responding to calls for medicines and first aid. Through this helpline, the group distributed medicines worth Rs.1 crore as relief tos the victims of the earthquake. It had also organised several talks by psychology experts to quell the fear psychosis which people had to deal with in the aftermath of the quake. The group also helped rehabilitate its employees who were affected by the earthquake by providing interest free loans to all those whose houses were affected and helped them rebuild their lives.
