Group Legrand India launches 3rd Telemedicine Centre

In conjunction with the Apollo Telemedicine Networking Foundation, Group Legrand India, a leader in electrical and digital building infrastructure, today opened its third telemedicine health centre. The facility was opened by Mr. Tony Berland, MD & CEO, Group Legrand India, in the presence of Mr. Uday Shankar, General Manager, Apollo Telemedicine Networking Foundation, and Ms. Abida Aneez, CSR Head, Group Legrand India. 

Legrand’s major CSR tenet is the improvement of healthcare. Since opening its first telemedicine centre in Jalgaon in 2017, Group Legrand India has helped more than 15000 patients through medical consultations in Jalgaon and Haridwar. More than 3500 people can receive medical consultations from telemedicine centres annually thanks to their advanced technology. For optimal health, having access to healthcare services is essential, yet rural populations confront numerous obstacles because of their remote location and limited resources. By offering free, high-quality healthcare through general and speciality telemedicine consultations, free medications, and a technologically sound infrastructure, Legrand hopes to support the community and close the gap.

General medicine, obstetrics, gynaecology, cardiology, paediatrics, orthopaedics, gastrointestinal, dermatology, and mental counselling are all provided by doctors from Apollo.
