With the blessings of our Founder Chancellor and the support of our Chancellor, Madam Chancellor, Mr. Suresh Samuel, Dean, Dean HPE, MS, and three Vice Principals, the Department of Psychiatry successfully held the World Mental Health Day program. This event featured two distinguished speakers, Dr. Stalin (Dean of PG Studies, PIMS) and Dr. Balan Stephen (Nodal Officer for the National Mental Health Program, Puducherry). As part of the program, we inaugurated “Manathirkana Manithuligal,” a new mental health audio podcast initiative for this year.
The event also included an awards ceremony where we honored patients with the “Best Achiever Award” and the “Best Caregiver Award” for 2024. In addition, we held logo-making and essay writing competitions for MBBS students, centered around the theme “Prioritize Mental Health at the Workplace.” The program not only raised awareness but also highlighted the importance of mental health in professional environments.
