my Educational Management Experience

Santushti Hospital Pvt. Ltd.

A state-of-the-art 100-bed multispecialty hospital, Santushti Hospital is a well-known name in the healthcare sector of Varanasi. The hospital provides modern medical treatments, especially catering to underprivileged patients, ensuring they receive the best care. Every month, thousands of people are treated here, serving the community with dedication. Patients from distant regions also visit our hospital and return to good health. A significant number of these patients are women, and those who cannot afford treatment receive medical care free of cost.

Santushti Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences

This institute offers various vocational courses related to paramedical and nursing education. Many girls from economically weaker backgrounds have gained self-sufficiency through education here. Additionally, 10% of students from underprivileged backgrounds receive free education. Technical courses are also provided for boys from economically weaker sections, enabling them to support their families after completing their training.

Santushti Ayurvedic Medical College and Hospital

Dedicated to preserving India's rich heritage and culture, this institution provides B.A.M.S. (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery) degrees while promoting Ayurveda throughout the state. It also inspires individuals to integrate yoga into their daily lives, fostering a stronger and more self-reliant lifestyle.
