Trauma Centre, AIIMS, New Delhi

The Jaiprakash Narayan Apex Trauma Center of AIIMS is a multi-specialty hospital in Delhi with 25 clinical departments and 4 super-specialty centres. Patients from Bihar, UP, Haryana, Rajasthan, West Bengal even as far as Nepal and Kerala come here for treatment. In its own modest way, SAPNA, along with other like-minded individuals and organizations, extends support to the resourceless who seek treatment at AIIMS. The orbit of support covers food and medicines. Chronically and acutely sick renal patients needing Haemodialysis or Peritoneal Dialysis are also supported on case-to-case basis. Six such patients were supported during the year.

At the Jai Prakash Narayan Apex Trauma Centre, NGO Sapna continues to extend critical support to unknown and unclaimed trauma victims through its Social Service Counter. Managed by 2 trained social workers under a Pramukh Sewak, in close coordination with the Medical Social Welfare Officer, the counter actively identifies and assists patients and their attendants in navigating the treatment process.

Our services include providing medicines and consumables, ambulance and transportation support, nutritional assistance, travel fare, clothing, diagnostic tests, surgeries, and rehabilitation. In cases where patients are unable to recall or identify their homes immediately, they are admitted to Sapna’s hospice in Noida. For long-term shelter, they are transferred to our homeless care facility Anandam – A Home for the Homeless in Alwar. The centre also distributes essential orthopaedic aids such as wheelchairs, crutches, walkers, and suction machines to improve patients’ quality of life. Additionally, we provide a General Kit containing basic personal care items such as a toothbrush, hair oil, cream, and comb.

During 2024–25, the organization distributed essential ortho-aids and medical support to beneficiaries across multiple categories. A total of 197 general kits and 5 blankets were provided during the year. Major ortho-aids distribution included clothes for 807 beneficiaries, wheelchairs for 36 individuals, walkers for 23 beneficiaries, and X-ray support for 22 cases. In addition, CT-scan services were extended to 6 cases, suction machines were provided to 21 patients, air mattresses to 7 beneficiaries, and MRI support to 3 cases.
