Construction of path needed for emergency access in busy rural hospital Ref: 172.00 Where is this project needed? Dang, Nepal Who needs help with this? Mahendra District Hospital, Ghorahi How will my support help? There is only one district hospital in this region of Dang. It is extremely busy and operates with just 7 professional doctors, and also provides emergency facilities for the 5 other adjoining districts. The hospital is lacking many basic facilities and operates on a very tight budget. One of the urgent needs identified by the hospital is to provide a smooth walkway in order to move patients between different parts of the hospital building. This project will provide a 50m route between the emergency entrance of the hospital to the indoor operating rooms and emergency wards. This will ensure the safety and comfort of the patients. Cost Breakdown All items are bought in Nepal; to reduce costs and to support the local economy. All costs are therefore given in Nepalese Rupees. JustAid is currently using an exchange rate of £1 = 120 Nepalese Rupees. This rate is slightly lower than the Banks because it allows for fluctuation in the rates Materials needed: Cement 30 sacks x 450 NRS =13500 NRS Sand: 3 x 1500 NRP = 4500 NRS Iron rod: 50 x 50 = 2500 NRS Gravel: 4 x 2000 NRP= 8000 NRS Skilled labour = 6000 NRS Project Implementation costs = 3,500 NRS Local bank charges to receive funds= 350 NRS Local Contribution: Cement 20 sacks x 450 NRS = 9000 NRS Unskilled labour = 5000 NRS Total Cost of Project = 38,350 Nepalese Rupees Did you know... The population-per-doctor in Nepal is about 18,000, in the UK it is about 800. Not only is there a massive shortage of doctors, but also, 90% of the doctors in Nepal are based in the cities and yet nearly 90% of the population lives in rural areas.
