Karauli : Advanced Life Support Ambulance of District Level Hospital of Karoli city remains a white elephant for the patients. There are facilities in the hospital, but even in extreme emergencies, patients are not able to avail its benefits. The situation is that an ambulance equipped with life-saving machines worth Rs 25 lakh, provided from the MLA Development Fund, will not save the life of even a single patient in three years. Has not been used to protect. Ambulance has so far been used in VIP visit protocol. The magazine discussed with people from different sections for the use of state-of-the-art facility ambulance. Everyone said that if there is a facility, the needy patient should also get benefit.
Social worker Rinku Kumar Jatav, resident of village Khedi Haiwat, says that due to lack of operation of life support ambulance, dozens of patients lost their lives on the way in three years. In the last one month itself, three people including a woman died in a normal ambulance. In such a situation, ALS ambulance should be operated immediately.
RIICO industrial area entrepreneur M. Iqbal Bablu says that it is ironical that ambulance service is not operational in the district level hospital. The then MLA had provided ALS ambulance to take serious patients to high-end hospitals with life-saving machines. But not getting any benefit.
Young businessman Mohit Mittal says that the referred patient may lose his life and the facilities available in the hospital are of no use. Such indifference is painful for the victim’s family.
