Dear Ms. Jan C Ford’s friends,
Good evening there! I would like to update all of you about our Bagan Clinic's activities for November 2024. We could treat:
- 36 dental patients
- 8 surgical patients
- 777 general medical patients
Before consultation with a Doctor, patients were
checked for blood pressure, pulse oxymeter, pulse rate, and temperature by our
staff in the clinic.
A stroke patient was being carried by wife from examination and treatment room to physiotherapy room.
Our Laboratory Technicians are preparing the blood samples and reagents before putting them into the respective Laboratory devices in the Laboratory.
Penicillin test dose to 4 year old boy for rheumatic fever by one of our nurses. In our country, Streptococcus infection is common and it can cause tonsillitis and rheumatic fever in children and some adults and the consequences are thematic heart disease and nephritis. Thus, we have to treat them with injection penicillin once a month. It is more effective than oral penicillin tablets.
In the Physiotherapy unit, our Physiotherapist is preparing for neck traction to a patient.
In these days, almost all people including
patients have been facing many many challenges, such as many check points on the
way, weather change (cold season from November to February), shortage of
transportation (afraid of armed people) etc travelling to our Bagan Clinic.
Anyhow! We can help patients by means of
- Treating their suffering/diseases
- Sharing the cost of medicine and surgery as well as transportation
- Providing accommodation and one meal since August 6 , 2011, when we started opening our Bagan Clinic with support from our donors, team and our fellow staff. I very much appreciate all of them for their kindness, sympathy, generosity, commitment and etc. Thus, we can sustainably operate our Bagan Clinic since August 2011
Kind regards,
HlaTun
