Every reputed, super-speciality hospital should include an ER with quick response time as an indispensable part of the healthcare unit. With all the support functions in place, well-trained and dedicated clinicians quick to act, we aim to set new benchmarks in redefining ER facilities and change the face of healthcare."Dr Keyur Parikh, Chairman Marengo CIMS hospital said, "Brain strokes and heart attacks are increasingly affecting the young population in the 25 to 35 age group and claiming untimely lives. Road accidents related deaths are also on the rise. Our endeavour is to create increased awareness of recognising the symptoms of a stroke and a heart attack and help build awareness on the golden hour. Our efforts in introducing refreshed protocols are to strengthen the medical response and the response of the support functions. It is also to create a matrix where a patient or an attendant is able to get medical help seamlessly and we are able to save more and more lives lost due to these circumstances."This story is provided by BusinessWire India.will not be responsible in any way for the content of this article.
