More socio-medical activities - exclusive establishments created for social welfare


Social organizations were roped in with medical services under the banner of King George Medical College and Indian Society against Smoking to help poor/destitute/helpless people in getting free drugs, surgical accessories for their operations, blood, nutritious food, fruits and also their investigations done .These patients were even provided with volunteers to look after them if no one was available. Large number of patients of Chronic Empyema Thoraces have been operated under this effort. The organizations cooperating in this were a large number including Om Sewa Kendra, Bharosa, Abhinav Bharat foundation, Prem Niwas, Madhur Samadhan, ISAS and so on. All festivals were celebrated with these poor patients and sweets were distributed. Many of these were provided free transport services or Railway tickets to return to their homes.
  
A WELFARE SOCIETY was created at institutional level to provide money for poor, destitute or people below poverty line or any body who could not afford his treatment. This purchases the drugs directly from pharmaceutical companies and sells to the patients from shops opened in many departments at atleast 26% less prices than MRP. This has created better sitting place for patients in OPDs, Television with channels to entertain during waiting and also relay health related programs in my OPD days.

1. AASRA
    Was created to provide suitable and honorable place for seating patients' attendants waiting during the surgery of their wards in New Surgical Block. This also had a Television with channels, facility for drinkable water, air cooling and an attached toilet.

2. TOBACCO CESSATION UNIT

    The first ever Tobacco cessation Clinic of our state was established at King George Medical University in 2002 with the support of World Health Organization. This caters to the need of thousands of Tobacco addicts with facilities of Registartion, clinical evaluation and care, investigations including PFT, Cotinine tests, Carbon Mono oxide monitoring, dental care and highly trained Clinical Psychologist for counseling, medical social worker, doctors and help lines with large number of outreach programs to keep in their contact in follow up so that those quitting Tobacco may maintain their tobacco free status.

3. SATELLITE CENTERS FOR TOBACCO CESSATION
    Several satellite centers have been opened at many cities and even villages after some responsible persons are trained in this field and we provide support in form of training, literature, cassettes, CDs and other IEC materials. Few are running very well as Madur samadhan, Anubhav and Mankapur telephone industry. This is patronized by its GM Mr. Tripathi and run under guidance of Dr.S.K.Mishra, the CMO of this institution.

4. EMPYEMA SURGICAL UNIT
    More than 4252 patients of empyema thoraces have been operated till last October since 1976 and poorest of the poor patients are being provided all including latest operative procedures viz. Video Assisted Thoracic Surgery. This is first time it is available in our state. All facilities essentially have been created with social support and donations from MLAs funds etc. Several procedures have been modified by me ,one goes by name KANT'S PROCEDURE ,a technique of Modified Open Drainage with intra thoracic dressing with foam for managing the critical patients of Chronic Empyema thoraces with BPF, poor pulmonary functions and poor general condition making him unfit and reject for any surgical procedure under General anesthesia.

5. DIABETIC FOOT UNIT
    Facilities for latest treatment of Diabetic foot patients have been acquired and this is being imparted including vascular bypass, use of growth factors and provision of pressure studies needed for modified shoes to achieve offloading.

6. FACILITY OF NUTRITIONAL CARE
    Most of the times surgical patients are really not looked after regarding their nutrition. This has been now rectified by provision of training, trained dieticians and frequent interactions with such experts. This led to establishment of nutritional supplementation in surgical patients  and thus marked improvement in outcome.

7. SCHOOL HEALTH PROGRAMS
    Regular school programs are being done dealing with health related issues but always on Tobacco hazards and its cessation. It will be difficult to truly express on the number visited in last 30 years, it should be colossal. We did a survey for NOTE India and WHO of tobacco consumption in relation to World Cup for Cricket in 1996 and we did this in over 9000 children. Two generations are participating in this program and now there is full fledged Youth wing to look after this segment. Our volunteers have received international scholarships and awards.

8. AUDIO VISUAL PROGRAMS FOR PATIENTS
    Regular audio visual programs on health issues are being run for patients under my care both in out door and Tobacco counseling and AV room.

9.     ANO - RECATL UNIT - FOR MINIMAL INVASIVE     TREATMENT OF HAEMORRHOIDS BY DG-HAL     AND RAR - OVER 405 PATIENTS MANAGED.

    All resident doctors and consultants are encouraged to utilize the facility of health and fitness center in our department after 4.00 pm or when free to keep them fit. We have indoor games including Table tennis. During November we had a cricket match with our post graduates. This has brought health, fitness and enthusiasm along with closeness and better relationship.
