Sera Jey Health Care Committee was initially established with an objective to provide health care and medical services to monks of this Monastery. But nevertheless, the need for others is wholly respected and sympathised - the sick and poor monks, nuns of other monasteries, lay public - Tibetan settlers and local Indians are welcomed and equally cared and treated a like. The history of Sera Jey Health Care Committee has its beginning in the late eighties, during one of his His Holiness The Dalai Lama's visit to the Monastery. When His Holiness expressed concern on the state of health of a large section of the Monastery's population affected by malnourishment and tuberculosis are rampantly inflicting severe destructive health problems.
