Improving Efficiency!



I was particularly concerned about the delay in radiological diagnostics at JDW. It is said that dates for USS and Echo are given as later as 2 to 3 weeks! With five radiologists and several Technicians, I thought there should not be such a long waiting list for USS particularly.I believe , lot of time is spent on typing the reports. I understand not more than about 10-20 Echos are done daily. How can we improve this:
1.Reports can be hand written as and when the scan is over
2.Reports can be brief especially if normal study.
3.Or Standard formats can be utilised.
4.Deploying assistants to write reports as the scan is being performed is another way, especially with Echos.
5.Given the adequate machines, may be atleast 2 radiologists can devote to ultrasound along with other Technicians.


Just my thoughts anyway!

Milestone for MRRH: Dialysis begins


Begining today, MRRH will probably be able to cater to the need of renal dialysis to patients of eastern Bhutan. Two patients , who were till date being dialysed at JDW, were successfully dialysed here today.
This is definitely a great achievement for Mongar Hospital. This is going to avoid lot of referrals and un-necessary travels for the patients .
It will be handled by the Medical specialist and a team of five trained nurses.
It is definitely a proud moment and my heartiest congratulations to all involved in this mamoth task.
