Another bumper camp. We did not expect the no of patients that turned up in the camp. Over 600 were registered, medically checked, tested & then evaluated by the surgeons . The Bardoli Seva Dal turned up in droves & the Vyara Seva Dal turned up in full form as well. The Camp was at the BABS high school in Sardar Chowk in Bardoli. A heart camp requires separate rooms for Echo/ECG testing, one for the intial checkup by the medical officer, another one for the surgeon for final evaluation. The progression ends with the room manned bythe hospital adminstrative staff where patients recommended by the doctor are given dates for operation at the hospital. Arrangements were made at the school for all of these. Plus you will have the seperate area for intitial registration where preregistered patients & new patients are registered. Seva Dal is deployed at all points to ensure flow of patients to the doctors in a orderly manner. Seperate enclosure is there for breakfast, Lunch & tea for all the patients, their rel;atives etc.Breakfast was a nice poha & tea , Lunch was fillling meal of sabsis, rotis, rice, mithai, farsan, papad. Meals were served to all patients & their relatives, around Over 1500 people had a meal. There was also this massive VIP Brigade which turned up. Over 75 VIPs including Chairmans of Sugar factories, NRIS ( Loads of them), a couple of MPs, MLAs, politicos. prominent Businessmen. We hatd to literally strain to accomodate them all on the dais. Was wondering whether the dais could bear the strain!!!!.
The Registration counter is the normally the busiest atthe begining of the camp. Our hospital registrations experts Rajesh Mehta & Anand Patel were on the job guiding the Bardoli Seva Dal to ensure nobody loses their turn & no patient is turned away.
The First patient to get a date was Anusya Bhandari-5 years. from Bardoli. (seen in the pic with Gafoor Bilakhia). Also a view of the registration counter . Our Managing Trustee Kanubhai Patel is addressing the gathering.
More posts on the Bardoli camp coming up.
