This year the virus has hit us more severely and the system is crumbling under the pressure of the increasing number of infections and the intensity of the infection.

Volunteer on ground in Bangalore at SAHYOG's triage centre to help reduce the pressure on the hospitals while helping patients (requiring oxygen) fight Covid-19.

The 50-bed triage centre setup is in an indoor Badminton court allotted by BBMP. This facility is meant for patients with oxygen saturation levels more than 84 who would otherwise require hospitalization or if they are unable to arrange oxygen at home.

How can volunteers help?:

Volunteers will assist the team of doctors and nurses at the 50-bed triage centre setup by SAHYOG in coordination with BBMP. Volunteers will mainly help monitor the oxygen saturation levels of the patients and assist with serving meals. They may be required to help with other activities depending on the need.

Time commitment needed by the Volunteer:

Volunteers will need to commit 8-hours per day for minimum 5 days a week.

Things to keep in mind:

Volunteers must be:

• between age group of 18 - 44 years
• preferably not have any co-morbidities/ high risk family members at home
• fluent in one of the three languages i.e. English, Hindi or Kannada
• preferably vaccinated

Please note: Once you sign up, the SAHYOG team will reach out to you to brief you on further details and share guidelines to help you navigate around the volunteering experience. A sensitization session will be conducted for the volunteers at the beginning of the activity.
