CSR
CSR at Fortis Healthcare means creating a framework for the organization’s systemic and sustained future engagement with the community at large. These engagements must transcend all segments of society and have transparent, auditable objectives and outcomes.
Towards this end, we are committed to and have created robust mechanisms to record, review and measure outcomes of our initiatives to the community at large.
