Force Motors
Pune-based Force Motors has deployed a fleet of mobile dispensaries in Maharashtra, to ease the pressure on the healthcare fraternity. The initiative, which started on April 1, 2020, deployed 30 Mobile Dispensary Vans with doctors, support staff, and medicines equipped to identify COVID-19 symptoms and direct the infected suspect cases to the designated hospitals. Aiming to provide a mobile doorstep dispensary facility, the vans were sent to various economically weaker localities in Pune and PCMC as per a pre-intimated schedule. Doctors in the vans monitor patients for cold and flu conditions and inform patients about preventive measures to be taken to curb the spread of coronavirus. The company has increased mobile dispensary units to a total of 50 vans right now, which can check 2,500 people every day and can examine the symptoms of around 500 patients in a day. Abhay Firodia Group has also earmarked Rs 25 crore to support COVID-19 relief activities.
