The EMMS helped develop a new ward for the hospital with a specialized incubator for low birth weight babies that are frequent in the region. The Prem Jyoti Hospital is located in the northeastern part of Jharkhand. The health program began in 1996 and, since its registration as a hospital in 2006, has expanded to provide medical aid and education to 172 villages of the Malto people. It is a Christ-centered hospital that helps the poor, underserved tribe of the Maltos. The hospital relies on volunteer outreach and Malto converts to Christianity. More than 60% of the full-time staff is Maltos. The hospital seeks to teach and empower local people to educate their own communities. With this aim, they teach school health classes and provide mosquito nets for areas affected by malaria. The EMMS has contributed funds for equipment and training of staff. Through the use of EMMS funds, the hospital now can give in-patient medical care and has improved its operating room. The Shalom Delhi AIDS program began in 2004 to serve the HIV/AIDS community in Delhi. The program offers critical care and general education under the "H.O.P.E" banner. The "H.O.P.E." program stands for homecare, orphans, prevention, and enabling churches. The most common illnesses that it treats are TB, diarrhoeal disease and Cryptococcal Meningitis. The EMMS funded in part the critical care component of the Shalom Delhi AIDS program until 2011, but has committed to full funding of this component since 2012. The critical care component is the treatment of HIV-infected individuals, affected patients, and others who are thought to have high-risk behavior. With the EMMS's funding, the Shalom Delhi AIDS program has been able to care for more than 1300 newly registered HIV positive patients. It has had more than 15,000 patients visit its out-patient department since 2005 and about 2,5000 patients have been admitted for inpatient treatment. The Christian message of the EMMS has been valued by the project and has contributed to the holistic care that it seeks to provide to its patients and family members. Until 1951, Nepal forbid any foreigners from entering its country. Although visitors were allowed to enter the country, they were forbidden from engaging in Christian religious ceremonies and from converting others. Their punishment was jail and deportation. However, the government of Nepal invited a group of Christians in 1954 to Nepal in order to build a hospital in Tansen and provide clinics in the Kathmandu Valley.
