In a commendable step toward promoting student health, PM SHRI Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya, Dongargarh has initiated a weekly health camp every Friday, organized in collaboration with the Mobile Medical Unit (MMU). The initiative ensures comprehensive health monitoring and early diagnosis for schoolchildren.

In addition to physical health check-ups, the camp also offers counseling services for students who require emotional or psychological support.
The entire operation is being efficiently managed by staff nurse Amrapali Gajbhiye, who not only supervises the camp but also maintains complete health records of the students. She is responsible for the overall medical care within the school.
