India has been in the grip of a devastating second wave of the Corona virus since March 2021, with several cities in lockdowns. The situation called for an urgent intervention to support our overwhelmed Public Health Care system. EPAM Systems did just that ! EPAM Systems, along with Nirmaan Organization as their NGO partner, chalked out a comprehensive plan to support the critical requirements of Government Hospitals across the 3 cities of Hyderabad, Bengaluru and Pune. With the support from EPAM Systems, in Pune, we have donated critical medical equipment and supplies to the Sassoon General Hospital, Pune including 5 Suction Machines, 104 Pulse Oxymeters, 500 Oxygen Masks with Reservoir Bag, 1275 N95 Masks, 600 Surgical gloves, 2 three-Channel ECG Machine, 300 PPE Kits with N95 Mask. The distribution event was held on 24th June where Dr. M.P Tambe, Hon’ble Dean and Dr. A.A.Taware, Medical Superintendent of the Sassoon General Hospital expressed their gratitude to EPAM and the Nirmaan for the timely support. We would like to profusely thank EPAM leadership for their encouraging and inspiring support at all times.

COVID-19 Wave I has had a devastating impact and has put tremendous stress on the public healthcare system. With the support of EPAM Systems, we at Nirmaan Organization, along with our execution partner, S.P.A.R.K NGO have been able to support 2 hospitals in Bangalore with critical medical equipment and supplies, needed to support patients not just during the wave II but also any subsequent waves. - Government COVID Care Center at CV Ramanagar: We procured high quality equipment to support the immediate initiation of the COVID care services for the local underprivileged. Their most urgent requirement was for patient beds, specifically fowler beds, and we were able to provide a total of 9 beds. The beds were completely set up, including all ancillary equipment for immediate use and after sales services. - Government General Hospital, KR Puram: We distributed PPE Kits, Oxygen Masks ets. for supporting the hospital staff in catering to the large numbers of COVID affected patients while ensuring sufficient protection to their medical staff. Additionally, the hospital had a lot of backlog for testing and vaccination documentation, so we provided computers and laptops to help in digitizing these facilities. We are deeply grateful to EPAM Systems for extending this critical support to save lives in Bangalore.
