“The main thrust of the project is to ensure health facilities for the marginalised people,” says C-NES communication officer Bhaswati Khaund Goswami. “Most of our boats carry a team of 15 members — two doctors, two-three nurses, a pharmacist, a lab technician, community workers and the boat crew. In every unit, we have a district programme officer who leads the team. The boat has a pharmacy and a laboratory. Whenever our team finds patients in a critical condition, they refer them to local hospitals. We have small boats attached with our units, which are used to shift such patients to nearby hospitals.
