Prem Sewa Hospital (PSH) staff are thrilled to be experiencing a fresh start. With two ophthalmic surgeons, a new OB/GYN, and a new junior doctor, the hospital has reopened the inpatient department, renewed its eye surgeries, and resumed delivering babies and performing needed C-sections. Having both departments functioning again is critical to keeping the doors open at Prem Sewa.

PSH was founded in 1966 by the Central India Christian Mission, and the staff were grateful to celebrate the hospital’s 60th anniversary this year. What began as a small clinic with 72 beds has grown into a facility with 35 beds, three doctors, one junior doctor, and 75 nurses.

Much of the hospital’s infrastructure is designed for eye services and OB/GYN care. For three and a half years, its obstetric and gynecologic services were shut down due to the absence of an OB/GYN. A lone surgeon managed the inpatient department (IPD) for two of those years, but after he left, the department remained closed for nearly two years.

Unfortunately, during those difficult years, staff members often went without a salary. The hospital’s buildings are quite old, and the roof of the outpatient department is falling in.

In addition, two key pieces of eye equipment would significantly support the ophthalmic surgeons in their work. These challenges are why we are reaching out to you for help. Prem Sewa Hospital is at a turning point with new staff, and they need support and financial assistance to move forward. Will you join us in supporting them?
