Welcome to the 32nd GCSMCH&RC

newsletter.

I hope you are staying safe and healthy

through these unusual times! We've been

busy since our last newsletter! As the cases

of COVID-19 increases and continues to

evolve in our country, GSCMCH&RC is

committed to the health and safety of our

staff and providing timely and appropriate

treatment to the ones in need.

Diseases bring in a lot of curiosity with it and the ambiguity on how to

deal with various circumstances in this scenario can be troubling.

Apart from just treating the patients, we have been broadcasting

various informative and awareness videos with the help of our

consultants to educate the audience by large. Our Live Social Media

Talks with the panel of experts has received an amazing response

from the viewers.

The contribution of our staff as healthcare workers has been

commendable and praiseworthy. The commitment to cure and serve

the patients comes with its own set of disadvantages like physical

exhaustion and mental exertion. To curtail this, on the occasion of

Patient Safety Day, poster competition and What an Idea competition

was organized to keep up the motivation and to percolate a wave of

learning along with fun.

As we progress forward for the NABH assessment, we prepare

ourselves to achieve this milestone together and sturdily. All hands-on

board can help us sail through this swiftly. This will again be an

opportunity to add another feather to our crown.

This COVID scenario has helped us in ways to better ourselves in the

field of digitalization. We have improved our MyNet experience

making it user friendly and even more attractive by adding self-

learning modules.

You can read about various other achievements, activities & updates

from around the organization in this 32nd issue of the GCSMCH

Newsletter. As always, please send us your suggestions on how to

improve our Newsletter at [email protected].

We extend our sincere thanks to all the GCSians for their undefeated

and ongoing support. As we understand these times can be

challenging and uncertain bringing along various opportunities and

encounters a long the way, un i ted ef for ts can lead to

accomplishments. These are uncertain times, but we will get through

it - together.

We hear your feedback [email protected]

Taking care of heart healthRisk Factors, Diagnosis & Precautions

World Heart Day Camp

In the time of COVID-19, taking care of a heart is more important than ever before. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been the major cause of deaths across the world. People with CVD and its risk factors, including diabetes, hypertension and diabetes, are more vulnerable to severe forms of coronavirus. In the time of COVID-19, CVD patients are faced with a double-edged threat. Not only are they more at risk of COVID, but they may also be afraid to seek ongoing care for their hearts. Keeping in view of this, we had organized a Free Cardiology OPD Camp from 21st September'20 to 30th September'20 at GCS Hospital, on the occasion of World Heart Day (29th September). More than 120 Patients took benefit of this camp.
