    76% of the Nursing Staff suffer from back pains and other musculoskeletal disorders finds a Godrej Interio survey ~Launches a new hospital bed ‘Chrysalis Nova Activ’ to address the pressing needs of caregivers and aid in patient recover~ ~ Chrysalis Nova Activ is a premium product designed for the highest degree of care for patients in the spectrum of Intensive Care to Post-Operative Care ~ Mumbai, 28th July 2021: Godrej & Boyce, the flagship company of the Godrej Group, announced that its business Godrej Interio, India’s leading furniture solutions brand, in home and institutional segments, today launched the Chrysalis Nova Activ - The Intelligent Sense Bed for modern Healthcare spaces. With this new addition to the Chrysalis range of hospital beds, Godrej Interio is addressing the need for patient safety and the wellbeing of caregivers with the introduction of the Lateral Tilt Feature which can be accessed through the digital touch attendant control panel, among several other intuitive features. During the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, the lack of healthcare infrastructure not only took its toll on the patients, but also pushed tired nurses and caregivers to their limits. This physical toil, especially across the extended shifts during the peak of the pandemic could lead to healthcare staff developing long-term musculoskeletal disorders. According to a study conducted during the pandemic by Godrej Interio's Workspace and Ergonomics Research Cell, this strenuous work environment leads to back pains and other muscular skeletal disorders in 76% of the nursing staff. Further, in case of patients, long stay in ICU wards can result in bed sores and other skin ailments.

They are possibly the smallest but most visible Indian minority. You will find a Parsi in every nook and corner of the world. This community has many luminaries, the “firsts” in diverse professions, and it is not possible to elaborate on their achievements. We list a few instantly recognisable luminaries, who by their contributions have left an indelible stamp of excellence on their chosen professions. By Perin Ilavia The grand old man of India, Dadabhai Naoroji, born in 1783, was a great political thinker and ranks among the greatest Indian patriots. He was the first founder-editor of the newspaper Rast Goftara through which he challenged Britain to stop draining India of its wealth. At 28 he became the first Indian professor of mathematics at Elphinstone College. By founding the Parsi Natak Mandali in 1853 he established modern theatre in Bombay. Going to England in 1855, he started the first Indian firm in London and Liverpool and founded the first Asian Religious Association in Britain in 1861. He was the first Indian to be elected Member of Parliament for the Liberal Party at Westminster, London in 1892, campaigning vigorously for Indian Independence. A close friend of Mahatma Gandhi he was a founding member of the Indian National Congress and the first baronet in the British Raj.
