जालियांवाला बाग़ क़त्लेआम की साझी शहादत साझी-साझी विरासत की वो गौरव गाथा जो सरकार नहीं बताएगी
Nawab
Najaf Ali Khan, the grandson of HEH VIIth Nizam
said
“My
family is very excited and keen to support NGOs like Helping Hand
Foundation that are genuinely working to help the poor patients in
government hospitals.”
He
further added that he was moved by the fact that even today paralytic patients
not only from rural Telangana and Andhra but neighbouring states of Karnataka
& Maharashtra come for free treatment to this hospital and by supporting
such patients a lot of good can be done.
City-based NGO, Helping Hand Foundation which has been working in Nizamia from November last year also donated a new Surgical diathermy & Goose Neck LED spot light for the OT to facilitate surgeries at the hospital.
Nizamia
is now doing 8-10 General Surgeries in the OT and also
maternal cases that require C Section are being performed at the OT.
Several facilities in the state-run Unani hospital in Hyderabad have improved after the hospital tied up with NGO – Two Sets of New bed sheets for 180 beds was provided, Lighting improved, window panes and toilets were fixed, pharmacy and patient bed side stools and almirahs in pharmacy were painted, the grill door of the old heritage lift repaired & new signages put up at the entrance by HHF.
Further
with a 24 x7 Ambulance with driver is now at the disposal of the hospital, many
patients who require emergency medical management in stroke care who
come to Nizamia are now finding it easier to get to higher centres otherwise
transporting this patient was a huge challenge.
“We
are very keen to partner with Nizamia to promote alternate and traditional
medicine as this holds lot of promise particularly in certain stroke related
disorders said Mr. Mujtaba Hasan Askari of Helping Hand
Foundation.
“HHF is also helping us with manpower to bridge the gap in patient care services and with the help of additional man power in OPD and IP wards, patients are expressing satisfaction as they are getting prompt services said Dr. M. A. Vakeel, Superintendent, Government Nizamia General Hospital.
