Telemedicine Workshop

We had a one day Tele-medicine workshop for the Hospitals in the east which have been supplied with some basic equipment recently. All the District hospitals were represented  with a participant each with the exception of Dewathang and Riserboo Hospitals.

The workshop covered on the overall Telemedicine coverage in the country and provided hands on training for the participants on the web based consultation that is to be followed .

Mongar Hospital will now serve as the expert end for the Telematic centres in the east instead of JDW as practiced earlier. A digital camera will be procured for each of the centers  by the Program.

I have been identified as the Focal Point for Telemedicine in the east and we will collectively  try to see how we can make a difference with the use of ICT in our patient care.I am absolutely  optimistic in this path!
