2. HOSPITAL IN BOMBAY Feeling the need for a sophisticated diagnostic center to help our patients coming from Kutch as well as those in Bombay, a good samatarian family has donated a fully constructed building in Central Bombay. This building named Maru Hospital is being developed into a diagnostic cum day surgery unit. A mammography unit has already been donated by Dr. Dhiraj Shah from U.S.A. 3. DISEASE PREVENTIVE PROJECT Rheumatic heart disease is very prevalent in Kutch. Bidada Sarvodaya Trust in collaboration with KEM Hospital, Bombay have adopted two villages. We are monitoring 700 children quarterly for stepococci, a bacteria and giving them preventative shots. We plan to adopt more villages on availability of funds. We also propose to start preventive work in polio and eye as well as other diseases.
