A renal care centre in Jaipur

RC Jaipur Round Town, RID 3054, and RC Rajdhani, RID 3292, Nepal, collaborated to establish the Renal Sciences Centre at the Rajasthan Hospital in Jaipur through a GG worth $288,000 (₹21.6 million). The centre will provide low-cost dialysis and associated services such as treatment for retinopathy and neuropathy to less privileged patients. Project coordinator PDG Ramesh Agrawal said that the project has already benefitted over 5,500 patients.

The new facility will provide a complete spectrum of care from simple dialysis to a renal transplant procedure, cataract and laparoscopic surgeries and other related treatments at much lower costs than private hospitals. It has also helped in providing employment opportunities by training over 100 paramedical staff.
