The Bhagwan Mahavir Relief Foundation Trust (BMRFT) is dedicated to supporting vulnerable communities, notably through its unique Medi-Dialysis Centre Read more in New Delhi. This centre aims to offer top-notch dialysis treatment to individuals with chronic renal conditions. With over 3.4 crore patients annually and rising, the demand for dialysis in India is immense, yet the current infrastructure falls short, leading to hefty expenses of around 3-4 lakhs yearly. BMRFT steps in to ease this burden by providing affordable dialysis services at their new Medi-Dialysis Centre, equipped with 25 beds and a holistic approach incorporating meditation. Collaborating with leading experts and employing cutting-edge technology, the centre ensures optimal care, aiming to support patients with Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and spread awareness through educational initiatives. At its core, BMRFT operates as a non-profit service organisation, prioritizing comprehensive patient care. Its mission is to offer exceptional medical aid and counselling, conducting awareness campaigns about kidney diseases, and supporting other voluntary bodies. The Trust envisions a future where underprivileged renal patients receive quality healthcare, access to cost-effective dialysis, and an improved life quality. BMRFT strives to empower individuals affected by renal disorders and restore their zest for life by becoming a frontrunner in renal care, reducing hospitalisations, and providing financial aid.

Programs
-
Haemodialysis Treatment Programme
The programme revolves around haemodialysis, a vital treatment for patients with kidney failure. Through its Medi-Dialysis Centre, it provides expert-led haemodialysis, using advanced machines to cleanse blood and manage electrolytes. BMRFT aims to ease financial strain by offering this crucial service at minimal costs. This process involves the use of specialised access points like AV fistulas, grafts, or catheters, filtering toxins and excess fluid from the blood. Sessions, lasting 3 to 5 hours, are typically conducted thrice weekly, initially in hospitals or clinics and potentially transitioning to home-based care under medical guidance.

Meditation Training Programme
At its Medi-Dialysis Centre, BMRFT integrates world-class dialysis with meditation practices to holistically treat renal disorders. This approach combines renal replacement therapy with Preksha Meditation, dietary adjustments, and lifestyle changes, aiming to enhance patients' overall well-being. Meditation, a method involving deep focus and relaxation, addresses physical, emotional, and spiritual facets. Specifically, the Jain philosophy of Preksha Dhyaan harmonizes mind, body, and soul for enduring relief from chronic renal issues. Patients undergoing haemodialysis often suffer from insomnia, anxiety, and stress. BMRFT utilizes guided meditation alongside dialysis, aiming to improve patients' biochemistry and overall quality of life through transformative meditation techniques personalized for individual care plans.
Milestones & Track Record
In February 2021, the Trust crossed the milestone of 900,000 dialyses performed and expanded to 186 machines across 8 centers in the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad.
