Ida Scudder and Christian Medical College:        
In 1890, a twenty-year-old American named Ida traveled to India to be with her mother, and experienced a life-changing event. One night, three men, a Muslim and two Hindus, arrived at her family’s home seeking emergency help for their wives who were having labor complications.
 
The husbands refused the assistance of Ida’s father, who was a Christian missionary doctor, because of prevailing caste and gender customs. Without any medical training, Ida was powerless to help. The next day she discovered that all three women had died. Ida felt that God was calling her to serve the women of India. She returned to the U.S. and became a doctor.  Returning to India in 1900, Dr. Ida Scudder opened a one-bed clinic giving medical assistance to local women. Ida’s vision was that women should have the same access to quality and compassionate healthcare that men did, regardless of religion or the ability to pay for it.
 
That clinic has grown into the top-quality medical and educational institution, the Christian Medical College, Vellore (CMC), which serves over two million patients and trains thousands of doctors, nurses and other medical professionals each year. Individuals come from all over India, South Asia and the rest of the world in search of the best care, delivered with compassion and integrity. Today, CMC’s excellence continues with advances in research and a continually evolving curriculum aimed at transforming India’s promising medical students into creative and compassionate healthcare providers.
