Ludhiana: Medicine shortage hits ops at Jawaddi dialysis centre

Hindustan Times  

Patients at the Nar Seva Narayan Seva Dialysis Centre, located at the urban community health centre in Jawaddi, are facing inconvenience due to delays in timely supply of essential medicines. The centre, set up by the NGO Welfare Society, has been operational since October 22, 2023, providing life-saving dialysis treatments to approximately 50 patients every day in two shifts. Each dialysis session for a single patient requires medicines worth ₹1,500, and with around 50 patients treated daily, the NGO has already spent an estimated ₹19 lakh on medicines since the beginning of the year. The NGO is hopeful that the government’s commitment to timely medicine supply will resolve the ongoing challenges, ensuring uninterrupted care for dialysis patients in Jawaddi
