Yuvraj Shivraj Singh Neuro Rehabilitation Centre- Jodhpur

One of the most important IHIF initiatives in the fight against brain trauma establishment of the state-of-the-art Yuvraj Shivraj Singh Trauma Rehabilitation Centre at Rajdadisa Hospital in Jodhpur. The Centre was established on 13th January 2011 and was funded by the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trust. Later during COVID-19, the centre was relocated from Rajdadisa Hospital to Raniji ka Temple, Sardarpura, Jodhpur.

The mission of the Centre is to provide long term rehabilitation to the patients with neurological disorder, stroke and training of Home care givers in Home Rehab. Rehab is also provided to autistic & CP children.

The reasons behind establishing this care facility are staggering statistics. Trauma-related deaths occur every 1.9 minutes in India, according to a 2004 report in the Indian Journal of Critical Care Medicine. This means more than 100,000 lives are lost in India every year because of traumatic brain injuries (TBI). Furthermore, 95% of trauma victims in India do not receive optimal care during the “golden hour” period after an injury is sustained, in which health care administration is critical. The outcome of TBI is drastically correlated to the response of pre-hospital care and rehabilitation. 30% of those who currently die from head injuries could be saved if quality care were available to them sooner. It is estimated that, with an increasing traffic burden in India, trauma is likely to become the third leading cause of death in the country by 2020.

 Finally, in an effort to assist the citizens of Jodhpur, IHIF Yuvraj Shivraj Neuro Rehab Centre has started the Zero Pain Movement, a revolutionary social movement to bring basic physiotherapeutic principles and prevention awareness to the masses. With the Zero Pain Movement, Centre – in conjunction with Medical College and local administration – use physiotherapy as a key tool to reduce the pain and suffering of the general public, especially those who are prone to head and spine injuries. The needy patients are also being given assistive devices like wheelchairs, orthotic & prosthesis aids and appliances.
