New Delhi/Rourkela: SAIL-Rourkela Steel Plant (RSP) has provided a 108-bedded oxygenated COVID Care Centre along with an ambulance service for the employees and the family members of the steel PSU. "The 108-bedded centre extends the treatment facility to the affected RSP members. With the surge in the numbers of COVID infected persons, it has become imperative to rationalise the hospital beds" a press statement issued by the company noted. While the moderate and critical Corona positive patients are being treated at dedicated COVID treatment facilities such as Ispat General Hospital (IGH), typically the asymptomatic and those with mild symptoms are being kept at the COVID Care Centre which is equipped with oxygen supply, medicine and food, the statement added.
