Hexaware Inaugurates a Dedicated COVID 19 Facility in Raigad.

Hexaware Technologies Ltd, a Leading Global IT Consulting & Digital Solutions provider, has always been committed to improve the ecosystem and has made notable contributions to the society at large. The human race has not experienced a global pandemic, which has seen such a wide and far reaching impact across the globe. Guided by its CSR philosophy, the Helping Hands of Hexaware has risen to the challenge posed by COVID 19 and has extended its support to the community around.

With an unprecedented surge in COVID 19 cases and the alarming shortfall of hospital beds to accommodate infected patients, medical facilities are not prepared to handle the scale of a pandemic this size. Nevertheless, over the past few months, Tier-1 & 2 cities have managed to scale up and have added oxygen beds to their critical care facilities, however, in rural / semi-urban centers, the infrastructure is still painfully poor.

To reach out to the people on Ground Zero, Hexaware, under its CSR initiative - Helping Hands of Hexaware took a lead in creating a 97 bed COVID 19 ward at District Civil Hospital, Raigad (Maharashtra) which was recently inaugurated by the Guardian minister of Maharashtra. Under this initiative, the company supported and created the infrastructure for 44 ICU beds which would have oxygen, air supply and ventilator supply lines and well equipped with oxygen supply lines for the balance 53 beds.

"The effort is in our commitment to reach out to the strata of society who are below the poverty line and depend on government medical infrastructure. Under mission Ayushman Bharat, we deepen our focus and commitment by reaching out to similar centers across the country and create facilities that provide infrastructure which goes beyond the COVID crisis." said Amberin Memon, Head - Corporate Social Responsibility, Hexaware Technologies Ltd.
