Sion Hospital on 11th August, 2021

On 11th August, 2021, Chinmaya Mission Mumbai, Prakash Zone donated instruments for the orthopaedic department of the Lokmanya Tilak Municipal General Hospital and Medical College ( Sion Hospital). This seva was undertaken as a part of the Maximise Happiness initiative 2021-22.

Dr A B Goregaonkar, Professor and HOD Orthopaedic department at Sion Hospital had requested Chinmaya Seva Trust to provide the instruments. The hospital receives around 230 - 250 emergencies at the orthopaedic dept per month. It is the busiest trauma centre in Maharashtra. Their operation theatre is working day and night without a break to treat these patients. Precious time is lost waiting for the instruments to be autoclaved. Thus, more sets of instruments are required to meet the demand. Sevikas – Smt. Shashi Binani and Dr. Neelima Pillai from Chinmaya Prakash Zone coordinated with the hospital and the vendor and ensured the delivery of the instruments in a very short time.

The hospital authorities have expressed their gratitude to the Chinmaya Mission for this valuable support.
