Safdarjung Hospital inaugurates sale of clothes, products crafted by Patients with Disabilities
New Delhi: In a move towards empowerment and inclusivity, centre-run Safdarjung Hospital has launched a unique initiative that highlights clothing and other items created by patients with disabilities. This initiative aims to provide a platform for these individuals to express their creativity while working towards financial independence.
On Friday, the hospital inaugurated a four-day sale featuring a diverse range of items, including clothing, blanket covers, and dolls, all crafted by patients. Having been paused during the pandemic, this initiative has now resumed, underscoring the hospital's commitment to skill development and the empowerment of its patients.
Organized by the Vocational Guidance (VG) section of the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Department, the sale aims to upskill Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) and provide them with employment opportunities based on their newfound skills. The VG section has been actively offering training sessions to doctors, teachers, and craft instructors, benefiting both in-patients and out-patients.
