"Earth Brigade Foundation decided to take the initiative and has redirected help to our frontline wildlife protection staff of the forest departments and the poor, underprivileged people in and around the forests to have life-saver oxygen through the latest model of the oxygenator machines from the reputed American brand, Devilbiss," said Dr Sarita Subramaniam of Earth Brigade Foundation.
According to the NGO, the concentrators are one of the most reliable ones in the market. "Our NGO decided to not compromise on quality with the cheaper and non-branded machines without any service centres in India but instead chose this more expensive but bankable life saving critical equipment," Subramaniam added
Earth Brigade foundation has provided 25 oxygen concentrator machines along with disposable nasal canulas to be used in case of an emergency until help reaches the patient or the patient can reach the nearest healthcare centres for the treatment.
