Topic: What is the plight of 
       our country's hospital.

It's a little past 11pm. Uday's phone (Staff of Citylight) suddenly from unknown number. Calling out quite loudly, "I'm having an accident bro." I first said are you joking or not, we talked about this 10-15 minutes ago. Uday shouted even louder, "No bro, I'm having an accident, you come soon." After that, he could not speak anymore, from whose phone he was calling, he said Biya come to New Road. Before realizing the horror of the incident, I crossed the road and started looking for an auto to go to a new road. I have terrible anxiety but I'm not hyper, so I usually don't look like that. I called Zafar Bhaiya (elder brother) but he did not pick up the call. I called Farooq brother at the salon and told him everything. He said he was leaving with the bike. As it is in Daulatpur, and near from Nabharasta. So you can reach earlier. Meanwhile, I also went to Zafar Bhaiyya. The two of us set off, when we were half way, Farooq brother called and said that Uday was not kept in the clinic in Nawrasta, he was being sent to Khulna, he told him to go to Gazi Medical. After hearing the liver became more dry, how serious is the situation? Although Uday is the staff of Citylight, we are like a very close younger brother, and one of the oldest. Meanwhile, no one has a number, I don't even know who is with him. Gazi is getting more angry after hearing that he is bringing it to the medical center. Know very well how Gazi Medical is. At the time of Abbu's treatment, he ate less. How many times have you been subjected to irony? But in Khulna there is no such option.

The situation in the hospital is deplorable.

I am standing in front of the hospital, no one is looking. Meanwhile, the tension is slowly rising.After 10-15 minutes Uday was brought with CNG. Now the real trouble begins. I came to know that the injury on the left leg is serious. Mahindra was sitting in front, having an accident with the autobike. Nothing more was known. Before first emergency treatment is not given. With great difficulty, I took him to the reception on a stretcher, we don't know what to do and how to do it, on the other hand, no one at the clinic knows how to handle an emergency patient. The on-duty doctor came, took the blood pressure, chatted with the patient, all standing in front of the reception. No treatment can be given without taking x-rays because of leg pain. The duty time of the person who will do the X-ray is over. he is not Meanwhile, they cannot provide any emergency treatment except X-ray. A car should be sent to fetch him, but there is no car...

Negligence, misbehavior, carelessness of doctors.

Even though it is 10 minutes away from the hospital, a car will have to be sent to bring the person who will do the x-ray. But if you call and say it's an emergency, you come a little sooner. That won't happen. 300 tk extra charge for calling him an off duty. And the cost of x-ray of the feet is 800 tk more. whatever Sir will not come without car. We keep saying that send us cars, send bikes? Will he come if sent? It took half an hour at the reception of the city's busiest and most important private hospital to get an answer to this simple question. Meanwhile, my patient is moaning and groaning. Finally, we sent the car to bring the X-ray man. He is in front of Garib Newaj, the people of Khulna know very well how far Gazi Medical is from there.

Meanwhile, treatment cannot be done without X-ray. But what else to do with an emergency patient? A separate room? Two is a doctor or nurse? Even if you stand aside and talk, you can get assurance. No one has any idea in this regard. I managed to take the patient up with a lot of force and threats. Meanwhile, the hospital boys took him to the 5th floor and gave him a ward. Chillapalla started after seeing the doctor there. Why was the emergency orthopedics patient taken to the ward instead of being treated in the ICU or OT?

Means to be lifted from the bed on a stretcher and brought down. Where the pain in Uday's body cannot be stopped. There is such tension. As if having an accident once is not enough. You will need to be reminded with pain again and again. Meanwhile the x-ray man came, the x-ray report revealed the long bone below the knee, called the tibia. It is broken in the middle. I thought it would be plastered. It was two o'clock in the morning to get a bandage and a partial plaster. I left it on the bed and returned home.

Silent hospital at night

Hospitals and clinics are charging high fees by keeping patients in ICU without necessary medical facilities and equipment.

The next morning I went and found out that the plaster was not working. have to operate. Hearing this, the boy was terribly upset. Do you have to pay compensation for a drugged Mahindra driver? Meanwhile, after cutting the previous bandage and examining the leg, the doctor allowed a bandage to come at 9 in the morning. But the honorable doctor who will do the bandage, was not found till 12 o'clock at night. He was managed by calling an acquaintance. Needless to say, 24 hours had passed since the accident...He said, fifty thousand taka is only the doctor's fee. Remaining OT charges, clinic expenses are there. Even so, he will not do the operation immediately, he will examine for 5-6 days, after the swelling of the leg decreases, he will see what the condition is. In all cases, it will take 70-80 thousand only for the operation. A lot of decisions have been made. Can no longer be kept in Gazi Medical.

It is not possible to get this seat of Abu Naser without known people. Uday's cousin, the seat doctor managed everything and was taken away the next day. After sitting the board of 4 members, the doctor gave the details, the total cost of the operation will be 20 thousand taka. But since the next three days are holidays, and the slot is not vacant, the operation will be next Wednesday. That is after 6-7 days. So be it.

In between, I went to the clinic several times to see Uday. Meanwhile, since Uday is not there, I am facing a lot of trouble to manage the restaurant alone, I have to do all the work with one hand, all the work was being learned by Uday. I used to walk very relaxed. Now again all on yourself. The worst thing is to think about his situation. Although they went together for days, he left for home earlier that day, then this situation happened. This Wednesday 20th, by the grace of Allah, Uday's leg operation was successful. There was not one doctor, but four. Their habits, manners, and communication are vastly different from Gazi Medical. Dawn is fast Everyone will pray for recovery. The cost is 18-20 thousand taka instead of 80. But in Gazi, the bill was about 7-8 thousand taka in one day. Even money is not a problem, if quality treatment is available. Even if you wave money in front of them, there is no time to look back and talk.

The development of healthcare and education sector is the first priority to improve the quality of life of the people.

I just feel sorry for the medical system in this country,disappointed to see people's lack of accountability and bottomless conscience. I don't blame anyone. However, in this country, I have seen with my own eyes the amount of suffering that a doctor himself or someone in his family accepts even if he is sick. And the treatment we common people are getting is much more. Dad has been suffering from cancer for almost 3 years. At that time, I saw mother's tireless and inhuman work from the very front. I was young, I felt helpless. And now I feel disappointed. Hearing that someone is sick or in need of treatment can be overwhelming. Before deciding which hospital to take, you have to think about who to call...After treatment, I have heard of doctors or health workers using and talking to make a patient or half recover. There are thousands of such doctors, nurses and medical workers in the country who can set an example and teach others. If not treatment, people will at least get good treatment.

On that day, a column appeared in Prothom Alo, "The High Court announced on September 12 last year that all hospitals are obliged to provide emergency medical services. Government, private, private, private, private hospitals or clinics, no matter who comes to Ashraf-Ataraf for emergency services, should be turned away." Cannot be given.Emergency department should be available in all hospitals.

But a doctor who was known as the street children's friend Dr. Bulbul, who devoted 27 years to the service of people, finally himself died due to lack of emergency services.

So when the people of this country talk about the medical system, they speak from their own experience and harassment rather than directly targeting the doctors. And the idea that doctors mean all doctors is wrong. Good and bad are everywhere, limitations are there. The country has also seen the doctors who gave treatment by wearing polythene during covid. "Many dedicated doctors are serving the patients. Thousands of patients are returning home after treatment in the hospital. Doctors also have to work under many adversities. Patient pressure is high, manpower and medical facilities are inadequate. There is also deprivation. But providing first aid to patients in emergency, Reassuring the patient, good treatment with the patient's relatives is not another obstacle.

The problem is that the bad words are for the bad parts of the medical system. Not to attack any doctor personally. Those who have devoted their lives or are going to devote their lives to medical care are being crushed by this system day by day. And it is because of this system that this great question is being raised

About profession I don't think it will be possible to practice compassion as long as we continue to accept good and bad without judging them.
