MEDICAL APPLIANCES BANK

Recovery from illness, injury, or surgery often requires specialised medical equipment such as wheelchairs, walkers, hospital beds, commodes and other rehabilitative aids. For many families, purchasing these appliances can be financially burdensome, particularly when they are required only for a short duration.

The Medical Appliances Bank enables patients and caregivers to access essential rehabilitative equipment on a rental basis, ensuring that quality care remains affordable and accessible during the recovery period. By promoting the reuse of medical appliances, the initiative reduces financial strain on families while ensuring that equipment continues to benefit multiple patients over its lifetime.

Through the support of GAIL (India) Limited, State Bank of India and Banco Foundation, Lifeline Foundation is able to make rehabilitative medical equipment more accessible and affordable for patients and families in need.
