To ensure that women will feel free to get admitted in the CCC, this center was made an exclusive CCC for women.

“To ensure that young children of women patients will not miss their mothers, children below 10 years old are also allowed here.
Our physicians Dr Sudhir and Dr Sriram make two rounds everyday in this CCC.
Pediatrician Dr Shayam Sarvode does one round to look up for children,” explained KS Gururaja Founder Trustee, Ashakirana.
“We will continue even for a third wave if necessary,” he said.
