Prince Sultan Center for Cardiac
Medicine and Surgery launched several alternatives for patients to continue
availing their medical service. The said program was inspired with its theme
“We Will Serve You in Your Home”. Patients can still be treated in the
premises of their own homes. They can communicate with the doctors through
the provided mobile number 0596706500, they can ask for their preferred
schedule of doctor’s appointment. And patients can still seek medical advice
through phone calls. The center’s staff is willing enough to attend to
their needs and inquiries.
Because of the health crisis
caused by the corona virus pandemic, the health center is doing every
possible way to serve the patients without coming to the hospital. They will
provide assistance in an initiative that aims to be of good and favorable
service. They will help facilitate the patients to obtain treatment without
hospital appearance; they will assist in rescheduling the patient’s
appointment according to priorities, and will take into account emergency
cases. These practices are part of the center’s preventive measures that will
strengthen the prevention against health risks and will raise the level of
safety and security.
Furthermore, the center recently
provided a service to communicate with all patients who have INR clinic and will direct them to nearby centers and hospitals for
examination. The patients can also contact the hotline number 059043311 for
the result. For heart patients and their families, they can ask for some
words of awareness regarding heart diseases as well as precautionary measures
to prevent new corona virus infection. In the event of any symptoms of the
said disease, patients can always directly call the hotline number.
The Center’s Director,
Dr. Abdulrahman Al-Mesnid, confirmed that these initiatives and alternatives
they have provided are the center’s way of looking after the welfare and the
common good of the patients. It is their duty to reach out and continue
facilitating medical services for patients and clients without their presence
in the hospital. This is also to ensure that the patient wouldn’t leave their
homes for the sake of treatment.
