Vedaranyam Hospital gets a self-reliant oxygen supply

A 500-liter Pressure Swing Absorption (PSA) oxygen plant was set up in Taluk Hospital Vedaranyam, Nagapattinam, Tamil Nadu.

The plant has the capacity to supply oxygen to up to 100 beds. Fully inspected oxygen facilities will be strong support during the fight against the ongoing pandemic.

“We are making sure that there should be an adequate oxygen supply in every hospital in each state so that there shouldn’t be a single person suffering due to the shortage of oxygen. As part of PM Care’s strategy, we are working with the government and hospitals to be ready for any possibility of a third wave of coronavirus pandemic.” shares Harshil Narula, Director, Med Freshe.

As Tamil Nadu focuses on the distribution of vaccines free of cost at private hospitals, the state is also making sure the CSR funds provided by private companies are being utilized appropriately. A total of 117 companies have participated in the vaccination CSR initiative and it will soon be expanded to other cities.

Along with the vaccination drive, Tamil Nadu is getting fully equipped with concentrators, ventilators, and an adequate supply of medical amenities, the entire medical infrastructure in all cities.

“In such challenging situations, we have to gear up to restructure and redevelop according to the requirement and work efficiently to make sure we are prepared before time” he added.

Meanwhile, to fulfill oxygen supply, multiple 200, 500, and 1000 liter capacity PSA plants are being installed in different cities of Tamil Nadu like Nilgiri, Vellore, Krishnagiri, Madurai, Kanchipuram, and more by Med Freshe.
