the Isolation Centre for Raj Bhavan Pariwar

Hyderabad,
May 13: Governor Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan on Thursday called upon the
residential welfare societies and colonies to have their own isolation centres
to help the infected in their areas to get safely isolated.
“The
healthcare system is already overburdened and patients with serious
complications need to get priority in hospitalization. The community isolation
centres will help safely isolate those with minor ailments or asymptomatic.
They serve like micro containment zones,” she said.
“In majority
of the cases, it is very difficult to have safe isolation facilities at home
and other family members too are at risk of getting infected. In such cases,
apartment-wise and area-wise isolation centres will be very useful,” she added.
Expressing
concern at the heavy workload and stress being experienced by the doctors and
other healthcare workers, the Governor called upon the people to strictly
adhere to the COVID-appropriate behaviour and contain the spread of the
pandemic.
Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan was inaugurating the
Isolation Centre for Raj Bhavan pariwar at the Samskruthi, the Raj Bhavan
Community Hall, here.
The centre
was established in association with the Art of Living Foundation’s support
organization, the International Association of
Human Values.
It will have
10 beds and the inmates will be provided with food, medicines, and other
medical support.
The Governor
thanked the Art of Living foundation chief Sri Sri Ravi Shankar for supporting
the initiative of the Raj Bhavan.
Governor’s
husband, noted Nephrologist, Dr P. Soundararajan said that it was every
citizen’s duty to follow the preventive norms and reduce the burden on the
already overburdened healthcare system and the frontline warriors.
Hyderabad
City Police Commissioner Anjani Kumar, Cyberabad Police Commissioner V C
Sajjannar, Advisors to the Governor APVN Sharma and Mohanty, International
Association of Human Values Projects Director Vishal Arya were among others who
spoke on the occasion, while Secretary to Governor K. Surendra Mohan
