Stress Management
“The Health screening exercise by Jarma Wellness has helped identify a potentially contagious condition in one of our students which neither the parent nor the School was aware about, timely identification and the correct guidance by the Jarma Wellness Doctors helped mitigate the condition very quickly. For us, even if we are able to identify one such condition we believe we have executed our responsibility well as a School.”

“We had student Parent Doctors doing the Health check-ups in our School, we had to manage a lot of logistics and planning, screening sessions had to be planned based on the availability of the Parent Doctors and record management was getting very difficult, we have been working with Jarma Wellness for 2 years and it has been a very professional experience, we really appreciate the detailed project planning and meticulous execution. The Health analytics that they submit is very interesting, for the School Management, the entire Health Screening process is now on Auto-pilot mode, thanks to the Jarma Wellness team”

“We have been working with Jarma Wellness for both our English and Gujarati Medium Schools in the Health Screening and Awareness area for the past 3 years. We have had great experience working with team Jarma, I would especially like to mention about Dr. Akshay Shah, his sessions and interactions with Parents have been a huge hit at our School. The teachers too look forward to the interesting sessions every year”

“There was a suggestion in my child’s report to see an Ophthalmologist as he was suspected to have short sightedness during the Screening program. We took him to an Ophthalmologist who diagnosed him with partial blindness. A corrective surgery was recommended, we did that surgery and now with spectacles he can see things much better than before. I would like to thank the School and management for conducting this Health Screening exercise. This has helped us very much”
