Challenge

Road safety is a major concern nowadays. Road accidents have been increasing yearly basis. In Gujarat, last three years 21,529 persons died in road accidents, 46,146 persons sustained serious injuries in road accidents during the same period. This is a very serious problem which is completely unnoticed. The people who have an accident, need trauma care, and later stage they require long term care including physiotherapy. It is very difficult to get trauma care on National Highway.

Solution

The project location is very ideal for trauma care and aftercare services. The hospital is located on National Highway No 8. The ambulance and trauma care service will be available for any person who will have an accident on that highway, and also in villages nearby. The project will provide surgical intervention if required, and long term physiotherapy care to recover faster and completely. The project will help to provide immediate trauma care, surgeries and aftercare long term surgeries.

Long-Term Impact

The project will help to set up a trauma speciality hospital. The hospital will provide orthopaedic care and treatment to poor patients who require long term care. It will also provide physiotherapy services to a poor senior citizen who requires long term services.
