Proposal Form

Objective/s of the project:

1: To upgrade medical infrastructure to treat 50% more patients with increasing demand over the years due to better awareness.

2: To improve accuracy, quality and speed of the treatment by employing current technology.

Need of the project:

Since its inception, population of Sangamner block has increased significantly. Technology for treatment has since advanced from the days the hospital was initially set up. The current project proposal will meet these increased requirements of number of patients as well as technology

Scope of the project:

The infrastructure at REH will be expanded and modernized to handle every year 7,500 outpatients in outreach camps and 1,500 surgeries will be performed in the hospital. REH has been serving about US$160,000 every year for operation of REH (US$ 2 per eye checkup and US$ 150 per surgery). REH will now gear itself up to provide services worth US$ 240,000 every year for surgeries and eye care services.

Over the period of next 7 years, medical service o will be provided by REH with an investment of US$ 35,000 in this project.

List of medical equipment proposed to be purchased:-

Phaco Machine

Chair Unit/Autoclave

Microscope /Camera

Washing machine

Refrigerator

Description of the project:

REH will provide required premises, infrastructure and furniture at its own cost. It will operate the facility with its own technicians, doctors and administrative staff with its own funds & maintain the equipments at its own cost for minimum 7 years.

Beneficiaries of the project:

About 5,000 patients from economically weaker strata of the society are treated in the hospital free of cost. Almost 80% of the patients treated are from rural areas. Patients who have ability to pay will be charged reasonably and that would partially support the free surgeries and operation and maintenance at REH.

Club's Resources:

A committee of RC Sangamner will be set up to plan, monitor, organize and implement this project. The committee will undertake monthly and quarterly review of functioning of the Hospital.

The Club will raise its share of funds required for this project through its own members, well-wishers and sponsors.

Schedule of Execution:

It is expected that financial closure of this project will take place by April 2018. Equipment will be ordered during Nov - Dec 2017. Deliveries and installation of the equipment will take place during Jan - Feb 2018. The new equipment will be operational by March 2018.

Sustenance of the Project:

Operation and maintenance of these equipments and the hospital is reviewed on quarterly basis by a Standing Committee of the Club. The Committee reports the Board on quarterly basis.

The committee work out targets for no of surgeries and outreach camps and also evaluate actual performance against the plan. Reports are prepared to monitor benefits to the weaker sections of the society.

Hospital's medical and paramedical staff would be trained for using new equipment by the supplier. All the staff is regularly trained to refresh their respective skills. They are also updated with the latest techniques and processes.
