Highlights Of #CaringForIndia Telethon: An Initiative To Assist Healthcare Workers In Their Fight Against Coronavirus

New Delhi Television Limited (NDTV), in collaboration with the GiveIndia, a non-profit organisation, has initiated a drive to help protect our medical caregivers in the fight against coronavirus outbreak in the country. To support our healthcare workers and protect them from falling ill themselves in the line of duty.

Dr. K V Thrilok Chandra, IAS., Special officer, Critical care support unit,Tele-ICU, Government of Karnataka explains how technology is helping bridge the gap in ICU specialist shortage
Cloudphysician has partnered with us to take care of certain parts of the state with the real time monitoring of all these high risk cases in the ICU and with their intensivists in the back-end. It has really helped in augmenting the local resources which are available and also it acts like a force multiplier, so high quality health care is available and to guide the local manpower. There are both doctors there and nurses who are monitoring the patients. So this has helped in micro managing the patients but with a remote approach and also the same intensivits can handle more patients at the same time.

About The Campaign

About The Campaign

Our doctors, nurses and other hospital staff have been carrying the heavy burden of the pandemic while working within the limitations of an inadequate public healthcare system.

With 0.55 hospital beds per thousand population, and under 15% of ICUs across the country have dedicated critical care doctors, this campaign is to help bridge some of these gaps for better patient outcomes and to make sure our healthcare workers are safe themselves.

To support our healthcare workers and protect them from falling ill themselves in the line of duty, we have identified three areas of intervention in India’s battle against coronavirus:

  1. Door-to-door community screening in hotspots 
  2. Provide certified PPE kits and masks to save our saviours from the virus
  3. Scale plasma donation and facilitate safe home quarantine solutions
