Tarun Bharat Sangh is assisting Covid-19 patients from impoverished families living in rural and peri-urban areas by providing Home Care-Kits to reduce their chances of being critically-ill.
Unlike the first wave it is not restricted to cities. Rural areas account for approximately 40% of all reported cases.
At this time, if Covid positive patients receive proper treatment and essentials, their chances of becoming critically-ill can be reduced. It will subsequently reduce the pressure on the hospitals at block and district level.
Home isolation requires proper care and monitoring of a patient that needs instruments and supplies like thermometer, pulse-oximeter, sanitizer, masks, etc. that create a financial burden on the already struggling poor and marginalized families, especially that of the jobless migrant workers, daily wagers and debt-ridden farmers.
Tarun Bharat Sangh is providing Home Care-Kits to covid patients, front-line health workers at village level. Each kit contains- Digital thermometer, pulse oximeter, steam inhaler, spirometer, topical balm, N95 masks, sanitizers, floor disinfectant, soaps and waste disposal bags, a notepad and a pen for recording temperature and oxygen levels.
During the first wave, TBS helped the 15,000 vulnerable families during lockdown due Covid19 in 2020 by providing three months dry rations in the remotest villages of the Rajasthan. 1000 pregnant women were provided with special nutrient kits. As sustainable mid-term Covid19 relief initiatives, we gifted Goat and a kid to 100 widows and poor women who lost their livelihood sources due to COVID impact. Seeds of Wheat, Gram, Mustard were distributed to 1000 small and marginal farmers and Employment camp for 5000 migrated labourers in villages during Covid19 lockdown.
