JCB India Joins Asian Institute of Medical Sciences in fight against COVID-19
JCB India, the country's leading manufacturer of Earthmoving and Construction Equipment, has partnered with Asian Institute of Medical Sciences, Faridabad, to actively support the fight against COVID-19. This project will be partially funded through JCB India's CSR initiative. The company has made a commitment to fund PPEs, medicines, testing kits, security suits and consumables for doctors and healthcare workers. The move will enhance the preparedness for comprehensive support to affected patients in Faridabad and surrounding areas during the COVID-19 outbreak, said Managing Director and CEO of JCB India, Subir Kumar Chowdhury, adding that JCB has initiated a multipronged prevention, mitigation and ongoing support strategy with Asian Institute of Medical Sciences. This is in line with the company's value of supporting and enhancing the communities in which it operates. The Asian Institute of Medical Sciences is the largest private hospital in Faridabad with the largest critical care set up covering Palwal, Hodal and Mewat in Haryana. CMD, Dr. N. K. Pandey said, “AIMS has converted and dedicated its emergency floor (isolating it from the rest of the hospital) into a COVID-19 Triage and Isolation Centre, with separate areas for medium, high and severely affected patients, and will also have residential facilities for all staff in a minimum 14-day shift. The floor is already equipped with high-end equipment and support systems such as ventilators, CPAPs, BiPAPs, defibrillators, bronchoscopy, X-ray etc. We are now preparing to tackle the volumes expected irrespective of the extreme yet effective measures being taken by the Central Government.”
