Advanced COVID Care beyond Hospitals, which was launched to treat COVID patients at home. She said, “The second wave of COVID infections has seen hospitals faced with a steep rise in the number of patients resulting in pressure on the bed capacity. Since a majority of the cases of COVID are asymptomatic or mild, we decided to launch the ‘Advanced COVID Care beyond Hospitals’ that reaches out beyond the four walls of the hospitals to deliver timely treatment at home for these patients. Regular monitoring of parameters just like in hospital with video consultation from special ICU doctors will ensure timely treatment and any potentially serious complication can be addressed immediately. Patients will be guided through their recovery at home without having to step out of the house or being exposed to a potentially harmful environment. Through the Advanced COVID Care beyond Hospitals programme, our health experts will treat COVID-positive patients through their treatment at home and limit the disease progression.”
COVID-positive people who do not show serious symptoms can be treated at home if the symptoms are identified early and the appropriate medicine is administered. It is also important to use the right medicine to guarantee that patients recover quickly and do not enter a low-oxygen state. The right treatment and close monitoring of COVID-positive patients will reduce the requirement for resources such as hospitalization, beds, oxygen, and ventilators.
Patients can call a special hotline number to be connected with a general physician who will assist with the required tests and medications. This facility is also available to other hospitals that may require expert COVID patient care guidance from top physicians. To consult with a COVID-care expert about their symptoms and therapy, patients can call 044-28292929.
