Around 650 hearing-impaired children from financially weak backgrounds are now leading normal lives, thanks to the cochlear implant programme initiated at the municipal KEM Hospital in December 2007. Kudos to various organisations, doctors, nurses and departments as their support was instrumental in taking the noble initiative forward. Not to mention, Tata Trusts' contribution of Rs 30 crore to the programme.
To celebrate the joy of hearing, the KEM administration on Saturday organised the 'Listen to Life' event to commemorate the birth anniversary of Ratan Tata. Tata Trusts has been collaborating with KEM since 2014, providing significant benefits to underprivileged patients.
