Bhaktivedanta Hospital - Dedicated COVID Hospital & COVID Care Center

• Besides cities, COVID has widely spread to the rural & tribal areas of India.
• Lack of healthcare support system to handle COVID crisis in rural & tribal areas
• Shortage of healthcare workers.
• Lack of trained manpower in healthcare delivery during COVID.
• Address the stress and mental health issues of not only the COVID patients but also their relatives.
• Non availability of vaccinations & the cost of paid vaccination drive becomes un-affordable to the rural and tribal population.
• Lack of beds with oxygen and Intensive Care Units (ICU)

We have worked at the grassroots during the 1st wave of COVID-19. We are now handling the 2nd wave with courage and our healthcare workers are tirelessly serving and attending to the COVID patients.

'Make hay while the sun shines' - This is what we can learn from the second wave of COVID.

1. Creating COVID Care Center with 100 beds capacity in Mira Road, Mumbai, Maharashtra.
2. Creating COVID Care Center of 100 beds facility in Wada, Palghar, Maharashtra.
3. Creating COVID Care Center of 50 beds in Vrindavan, Mathura, Uttar Pradesh.
4. All COVID Care Centers will be equipped with the essential equipment/ services like Ventilators, ECG, Multipara Monitors, Oxygen Cylinders, Oxygen Concentrators for Home Care patients, Medicines, Counseling, etc.
5. We can augment COVID relief in the rural & tribal areas through 4 Mobile Clinics & 8 Satellite Centers in the Thane & Palghar districts of Maharashtra and our centres in Mathura districts of Uttar Pradesh.
6. Vaccination drive in rural & tribal areas will be a preventive step. However, this will depend on the availability of funds and vaccines.
7. Our trained manpower will be able to fast track the COVID Care activities.
8. This will not only help in the 2nd wave but also in the subsequent surge.
