Ms Shilpa Reddy launches 'NAARI', a first of its kind magazine to inform & empower women on issues concerning them!
The Fernandez Hospital Educational and Research Foundation launched a quarterly Magazine 'NAARI' to give a voice to women and their concerns. The launch issue was released by well-known fashion designer Ms. Shilpa Reddy in the presence of the Foundation's Managing Trustee Dr. Evita Fernandez; Ms. Ratna Rao Shekar; Foundation Trustees Dr. G. Pramod and Ms. Leila Campos, and an august gathering of the city's elite.
The newsletter, the first of its kind for any hospital in the country, will not only highlight activities about Fernandez Hospital but issues concerning women with a focus on compassionate maternity care. Conceived and edited by the well-known journalist, Ratna Rao Shekar, the first issue focuses on stories of midwives and young mothers birthing the natural way. We hope to feature more stories of women who have fought odds to find their voice in society in future, says Dr. Evita Fernandez.
The Foundation works in tandem with Fernandez Hospital, a highly reputed institution in the Twin cities dedicated to health care for women and newborn. Backed by 70 years experience, Fernandez makes every effort to promote natural birth while reducing the incidence of Caesarean Sections. With the launch of NAARI, the Foundation hopes to inform women and their families about health care issues and what Fernandez is doing to provide a better standard of health for women of all ages.
