As the state of health has a direct relationship on academic achievement, the health care cell in St.Xavier’s Catholic College of Engineering was started in December 2016. This cell mainly focuses on health promotion, prevention of illness and health education. In the academic year 2017-18 to cater the health care needs of the Staff and Students of SXCCE a new Medical Room with First-Aid Facility has been added to the existing facilities. Apart from this two MoU’S have also been signed between Holy Cross Hospital, Vetroornimadam and St. Xavier’s Catholic college of nursing to provide first aid during medical emergencies .
