Problem
A well-established communication channel with donors and patients is a key requirement to ensure better operations. Setting up seamless operations while maintaining a huge volunteer donor base without a robust and secure communication channel is a challenge. Thus to convey important information like details of blood banks, donation camps and requests for blood units in emergency, a communication channel targeting wide reach for mass audience (donors) is required.
Solution
Sankalp India Foundation is managing their operations and communication efficiently with SMS communications via MSG91 API. With MSG91 APIs and real-time robust system, SMS is delivered to the volunteers and patients to build communication at different events such as
- Volunteers areĀ informed about the blood donation camps and drivesĀ via SMS containing details of the drive.
- Kin of the patients are sentĀ details of the Blood Banks which have the required blood group unitsĀ via SMS.
- SMS regardingĀ blood units requirements in emergency and the detailsĀ are sent to volunteers having the required blood group.
- Blood donation requests for Bombay Blood Group along with detailsĀ are sent to the registered Bombay blood Group donors via SMS.
Benefit
As a result, the patient gets details of blood banks or donors via secured channel, making the operations reliable and seamless. Moreover, the updates of camps and emergencies sent to donors results in a better coordination and resulting in timely procurement of required blood units saving lives.
