Mobile Message Alert System launched at MR Bangur Hospital
With the aim to provide even better services in Government Hospitals, a number of innovative steps had been taken by the State Health department. A new addition to the plethora of services is the 'Mobile Message Alert System', which will remove dependence on paperwork. The system has been launched at MR Bangur hospital.
This is how it will work:
- Patient is admitted to the hospital through the authorized counter
- Details of the patient is keyed in to a computer
- Once registration is completed, details of the patients automatically texted to the concerned doctor
- SMS includes name of patient, ward number and bed number
- This facility will be available 24×7
If the condition of the patient is critical:
- No need to fetch call-book from the ward master's room, only a call message will be sent
- Call message will include name of patient, bed number, and symptoms, number of car driver
- The doctor concerned will be coordinated over phone
After the registration of the patient, a printout of the details will be given to the patient party which will include the name of the physician who will treat the patient.
A test-run of the system is being done for the last seven days and will be implemented soon.
