ambulance and emergency not trained or equipped to handle hip fracture cases?

I noticed this glaring inadequacy The ambulance driver and help were totally untrained. They did not know how to immobilize the hip and procedeed to try and lift the patient onto the streatcher Same happened in the emergency room. The lady helpers (aayas,maushi marathi) and the men(mamas marathi) attempted the same thing. This continued even after the hip surgery where they tried to turn the patient holding onto the surgery side of the hip

Nanavati operation experience

Called ambulance came in 20 minutes No upfront cash needed Took to emergency ward . It is good to find a doctor .then admission is fast You need to choose a room then you are taken directly to the room after filling forms at the emergency ward Xray done. By evening the admission  will tell you the approximate cost.sharing rooms will be cheaper than single delux. But down side is no place for relative to sleep and you can get a crazy patient in the other bed. But cost is significantly lower Now you need to pay 70% the day before the surgery. Holidays and night surgery will incurre significantly higher charges for ot Good anaesthetist. Dr Bhatt who took all the history .much better experience than hinduja. Good Dr sahane. Operation finished in 2 hours Good floor admin mehwish and shweta shetty and nurses . They have a guy who comes for feed Back on the second day which helps makes services better

One out of 10 medicines in India 'fake'

An estimated one in 10 medical products circulating in low- and middle-income countries like India is either "substandard or falsified", says a new research report from the World Health Organisation (WHO).  38 and 90 per cent of the artemisinin medicines on the market were substandard or falsified. http://www.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/one-out-of-10-medicines-in-india-fake-may-cause-severe-illness-who-117112801415_1.html

india doctors have no clue about drug resistant bacteria ?

. The main reasons for this are the spread of classically ‘hospital’ strains, particularly resistant Klebseilla and E Coli, into the community and vice versa, and the repeated admissions of individuals to hospitals with long standing underlying diseases,” said Dr Sumit Ray, study’s author and vice chairman, department of critical care, Sir Ganga Ram Hospital. http://www.dnaindia.com/health/report-drug-resistant-germs-escape-hosps-2560728 what i have personally seen is that doctors in the OPD who examine patients with probes . DO NOT personally supervise the sterilisation of equipment used. The leave it to the lowest of the low ward boys. Who do not know anything about drug resistant or are least interested in thorough sterilisation of the equipment

Experience with suburbandiagnostics.com blood-test-at-home

so mom needed to get bloodtest done phone suburbandiagnostics.com/blood-test-at-home/ at 8 am The lady at the call center says we usually require one days notice? wtf . we cant plan one day in advance for serious cases Then she says the "technician" will call you in 30 minutes. 10 am call again. Another person on the line . clueless on what my interaction was with the previous rep. Again i told her about the technical. she says technician will come between 3-4 pm and that i can till the technician what all i need done. 3.30 pm call again tell the rep no technician has called. rep says he has talked to the head of the technician and they will come by 4pm 4.15 technician calls to find out my exact address. cost comes to 5600 . reps portable swipe machine does not work. have to stress how to find cash to pay as suburbandiagnostics.com/blood-test-at-home/ does not have an online payment system. imagine these guys have got so much funding but still do not h

Care 24

If you need an attendant/aaya to look after your elderly parent in time of need . Care 24 is what i tried. https://care24.co.in/ Mumbai: (+91) 22 3349 1491, Delhi: (+91) 11 3958 9589 They have improved since 2 years ago with online payment via their mobile app or payment in cash to their collection man You do not pay the staff directly. But the only negative is you have to pay for a minimum 7 days to even have the staff for 2 days.So 850 for 12 hours . so about 6000 minimum so now if you cancel the service and have a balance on the care24 app. 1) the balance will no longer reflect. 2) When you call up the call center . The rep will no longer know who you are as the account is closed. So i need need to pause the service it is better to pause than cancel the service .

99% doctor's giving antibiotics without testing sensitivity

Over the past 2 years I have had 3_4 doses of antibiotics given without sensitivity tests .I felt better for a while then again it became worse.finally a doctor did a culture and sensitivity test and found the stephalloccous bacteria resist to a whole number of antibiotics. On top of this many doctors are labelling patient symptoms psychosomatic and prescribing anti depressants.

Graveline says that drug companies do not mention this on their disclaimers because most people consider hair loss as very important and so hair loss becomes “a threat to marketing”. - See more at: http://www.belgraviacentre.com/blog/statin-drugs-contribute-to-hair-loss-says-retired-doctor-and-former-nasa-astronaut-209/#sthash.tTBfPhlr.dpuf
