ROtaract club of medicrew

The Avenue basically stands as the link between the club and the members. It is a bridge that connects the members of the club closely to the administration of the club. It helps the members to get closely associated with all the working and gives them the recognition as being a part of the Rotaract family and not just merely members of the club. All the grievances and the queries that are presented by the members are looked up on by the HRD Avenue and suggestions and the recommendations put forth by the members are carried forward to the core team to help enhance the experience of the members and provide them the exact opportunities that they are looking for. The Avenue in itself also serves as the GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE along with the President and the Seargent at Arms to cater to all the disputes in the club. To help in extending the reach of RC Medicrew and extend our base PAN India, HRD Avenue has put in place several Regional Heads across various regions all over India and has appointed institute wise Institutional Ambassadors that essentially serve as the College Representative and serve as the first-hand point of contact for the members of different institutes to get in touch for all the doubts recommendations etc. Along with this, to help to cater to the specificity of every medical department that falls under our club, namely, medical, physiotherapy and dental, Faculty Heads have been appointed by the HRD on quarterly basis that do the job of formulation of projects specific to the faculty and assist the other directors from different avenues to polish on aspects of their respective projects to make them more faculty specific so that the club avoids generalized projects for all. Through the Regional Heads, Faculty Heads and The Institutional Ambassadors, the HRD has put forth the “DEVELOPING LEADERS INITIATIVE” that helps in training and grooming the probable core and board of directors for the upcoming years.

To further help in enhancing the bond between the members and the administration of the club, monthly GENERAL BODY MEETINGS have been planned under the HRD Avenue by the HRD directors where all the members are gathered together and are updated about all the activities that have been flagged off by the club in that month and are asked about their ideas, suggestions and their views on the kind of projects that they would like to participate in.

HRD Avenue has conducted several projects that did leave a mark. To name a few amongst many:

HeartBeats

The Rotaract Club of Medicrew organized "Heartbeats," a nationwide CPR training workshop aimed at equipping the public with life-saving skills. With nearly 90% of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest victims dying, timely CPR significantly boosts survival chances. Initiated by President Rtr. Jessica Gupte, "Heartbeats" aimed to raise awareness and empower people to perform CPR confidently. The event was a success, training over 10,000 people across 11 camps with more than 200 volunteers. Workshops were held in various locations, including Delhi, West Bengal, Mumbai, and Mangalore, educating participants in CPR techniques and increasing their readiness for emergencies.

 

PROJECT DIVERSIFY 

Over the years, HRD has taken great pride in scouting and recruiting highly motivated individuals who share common goals and big dreams. Through a rigorous process of training and conditioning, the club has allowed these recruits to pave their own ways. Ultimately this has led to the establishment of a prolific network across the country which has taken this club to unfathomable heights. This year, through Project Diversify2.0, the HRD Avenue wanted to involve all the other avenues in the entire process of recruiting members. Every core member was asked to bring in 15 prospective general body members while every board of director was asked to scout for 10 prospective members each
