Apollo Hospitals launches 'Always Open, Always Here', a global first in healthcare from India

2026-08-20 22:11 Last Updated At:22:35

NEW DELHI, Aug. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Apollo Hospitals launched 'Always Open. Always Here.', a first-of-its-kind initiative that makes routine and planned healthcare services available across all seven days of the week, including Sundays.

Apollo's emergency, critical care and inpatient services have always been available 24x7. The new initiative extends Sunday access to outpatient consultations, diagnostics, preventive health checks, follow-up consultations and scheduled procedures, helping patients and families seek timely care without waiting for a weekday.

According to Apollo's Health of the Nation 2026 Report, the rising burden of lifestyle diseases such as obesity, hypertension, diabetes and metabolic disorders is increasingly affecting Indians during their most productive years.

Our Zen Health Program —comprehensive and advanced assessmentsdetects the earliest signs of disease, often before symptoms appear.

Dr. Prathap C. Reddy, Founder & Chairman, Apollo Hospitals Group, said, "For more than four decades, Apollo has believed that healthcare is not only about treating illness, but about protecting health and preventing disease. 'Always Open. Always Here.' is a continuation of that promise. We have always been available for emergencies and critical care. We are now extending the same commitment to routine and preventive care across all seven days of the week. This is our seal of service to every Indian."

He added, "This initiative is also a tribute to every doctor, nurse, technician and healthcare worker at Apollo, and to their families. Healthcare is a profession built on service above self. Their commitment allows us to take this step for patients and families across India. If one timely consultation helps detect disease early or prevent a crisis, we would have changed a life. If we inspire millions to choose care before crisis, we would have changed the future."

Since 1983, Apollo has played a defining role in Indian healthcare: cardiac surgeries that had never before been performed in India; South Asia's first Proton Cancer Centre; preventive care pioneered through the Master Health Check, which has touched over 30 million lives; and one of the world's busiest solid-organ transplant programmes. Apollo Prohealth has been the first AI-powered risk prediction and analysis designed to help individuals identify health risks earlier and take informed action before conditions progress. Patients from over 150 countries now walk through Apollo's doors.

THOME brings its advanced dual-frequency ultrasound technology to Sephora beginning August 20

SEOUL, South Korea, Aug. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- THOME, a Korean beauty device brand known for its advanced ultrasound technology and professional-grade approach to at-home skincare, today announced its U.S. launch at Sephora as part of the OLIVE YOUNG K-Beauty Edit. Starting August 20th, THOME will be available at more than 580 Sephora stores nationwide and on Sephora.com, marking the brand's largest U.S. retail expansion to date.

The OLIVE YOUNG K-Beauty Edit is a dedicated K-beauty space at Sephora featuring 19 Korean brands curated by OLIVE YOUNG, with THOME as the only K-beauty device brand in the selection.

THOME was built on the belief that high-performance technology can become part of an everyday skincare routine," said Jenny Lee, Global Brand Marketing Leader at THOME. "Launching at Sephora—and being selected as the only K-beauty device brand in the OLIVE YOUNG K-Beauty Edit—is an important step in bringing that vision to more consumers across the U.S."

THOME will support its Sephora launch through an integrated U.S. marketing campaign spanning digital content, creator partnerships and in-person activations as the brand continues to expand its presence in the U.S. prestige beauty market.
