Home Isolation Kits
In the new wave of COVID-19, healthcare systems are proving inadequate to meet the demand of new cases. One strategy to reduce the pressure on the healthcare system is to encourage home/ community isolation for patients with mild to moderate symptoms.
Nirmaan.Org will distribute ‘home isolation kits’ to families from economically marginalized communities where even one member tests positive for COVID. The kit will comprise of a pulse oximeter, a clinical thermometer, protection gear and medicines and supplements prescribed by the Government of Telangana.
The cost of each “home isolation kit” is Rs.3,000 / $ 40. Families will be encouraged to donate back the thermometer and oximeter after they recover, so more families can benefit.
Ration and Hygiene Kits

Nirmaan.Org will distribute ration and hygiene kits to the families, which will include foodgrains, pulses and other essentials sufficient to support a family of 4 for one month. Masks and sanitizers will also be provided.
