The U. N. Mehta Institute of Cardiology & Research Centre requires about 30,000 Blood Transfusions per year.

• The MAA AMRUTAM MOTHER MILK BANK initiative was undertaken to address the problem of limited access to safe and quality donor human milk for vulnerable infants admitted to the PICU, NICU, and PCTRR departments of U.N. Mehta Institute of Cardiology & Research Centre.
• Our primary objective was to establish a state-of-the-art milk bank that would ensure a consistent supply of screened donor human milk, improving the nutrition and health outcomes of these infants.
• To achieve this, we collaborated closely with healthcare professionals and implemented stringent donor screening processes. Advanced milk processing technologies were also employed to enhance the availability and nutritional value of the donated milk.

• The MAA AMRUTAM MOTHER MILK BANK initiative demonstrates a remarkable degree of improvement in services, operates on a substantial scale, and showcases sustained impact. It positively influences various stakeholders, including infants, healthcare professionals, and the community, by effectively addressing the critical need for safe donor milk at UNMICRC. Through the promotion of donor milk's importance and the establishment of a reliable system, the initiative significantly improves health outcomes and contributes to the overall well-being of patients.
