Observe, Understand, and Change

Posted on October 4, 2022October 4, 2022 by Seva Foundation

Safety and quality of care are at the center of everything we do. Our partner, Dr. Samina Zamindar in Bangalore, India, recently opened the doors of her private practice to welcome 11 colleagues from Seva partner institutes for a series of safety and quality initiatives.

This joint program, called Observe, Understand, and Change, educated hospital teams with practical skills to adopt standard operative procedures to improve quality at a grassroots level, avoid medical errors, and make incident reporting a regular standard in medical settings.

A conversation with Dr. Ashwini Kumar, a pediatric ophthalmologist in India

Posted on September 29, 2020September 29, 2020 by Seva Foundation

We believe that all children should be able to play, learn, and grow. Unfortunately, according to the World Health Organization, an estimated 1.4 million children globally are blind, and 19 million live with some form of visual impairment.
