Nadakkavil Hospital

Our place is out in Karippol. If you know the area, you know it is a bit quieter than the big cities, which we actually like. The hospital has been a part of this community for a long time. People around here just call it Nadakkavil, and most families have been here at one point or another for something. We are not a massive facility with hundreds of beds, but we have what is needed for the local folks. The building is older but we keep it up as best as we can. There is a lot of green around us, which makes the air feel a bit fresher. Our staff is mostly local, so they speak the language and understand what people need without much explaining. We don’t have a marketing department or a fancy website. We just open the doors in the morning and wait to see who needs help. Sometimes it is a small injury from the fields and other times it is something more serious. We do our best with what we have and refer people to the bigger city hospitals if it is out of our hands. It is a quiet life here, but the work is steady. We appreciate the trust the people of Karippol put in us. It is not a glamorous job, but it is important for the village and we take that seriously every day. We just want to keep things running smoothly for everyone.
