We are working towards creating more Oxygen equipped hospital beds by supporting smaller nursing homes with required financial, logistical and volunteer support to run it as a COVID hospital. We have identified few nursing homes in Hyderabad and working on the following fronts
- Permissions from government to handle COVID patients with all protocols (Permissions already acquired for one 20 bed nursing home)
- Additional staff procurement and increased incentives for existing staff to handle COVID stress
- Procuring oxygen concentrators for each bed as normal oxygen procurement on daily basis is a nightmare now. We have right now placed orders for 40 Oxygen Concentrators costing us $25,800
- Arranging food for patients and staff for three times a day in these nursing homes
