PASSION FOR TEAM WORK – BASIS OF EXCELLENCE: DR. SHARAN PATIL

Dr. Sharan Patil, the Director of the Sparsh Hospital, Bangalore expressed the view that no single doctor will be able to take the Indian Medical Scenario to international levels. Team work, dedication and a chip for excellence is the triad behind the success of the complicated surgery on the 2 year old child Lakshmi, he added. Though institutions are concentrated around cities, a doctor’s mission should also include the rural folk. Doctors in India are second to none in their skills. Dr. Sharan Patil and Dr. Yohannan John were presenting a paper ‘Lakshmi to life’ in connection with the 55^th anniversary of Jubilee Mission, Thrissur on 11^th December 2007. Mayor Prof. R. Bindu was the Chief Guest, Fr. Dr. Francis Alapatt, Dr. K.S. Pillai, Dr. Sunny Pazhayattil and Dr. V.K. Ramankutty spoke on the occasion. Earlier on the day, Mgr. Joseph Kakkassery hoisted the anniversary flag.

Reach health care to rural people, says President Kalam

President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam said medical practice should aim at healing not just the body, but also the mind. Addressing 300 students of the Jubilee Mission Medical College and Research Institute the President said ideal medical treatment was a synthesis of aspects of physiology and psychiatry. The President made the students take an oath of treating at least 20 rural patients a year at minimum cost, providing quality health care to the underprivileged, encouraging development of indigenous medical equipment and realizing that medical professionals were in God's mission.

Affordable healthcare: "You should gear up to provide affordable health care to 700 million people in 6 lakh villages in the country. You must take up research in heart care, thrombosis, HIV, AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, hepatitis and eye care. Your colleges should take you for work in rural areas at least once a month. Rural medical camps should be a part of your curriculum," he told the students. When a student asked him about his views on Kerala, the President said that in human development index, the State was rated number one in the country. He made the students read a statement, "We are born with a divine fire. Our efforts should be to give wings to this fire and fill the world with the glow of its goodness."

The President answered questions posed by Dinesh Thomas Cherian, Malini Gopal, Mirfath Ibrahim and P.S. Manjunath. Fr. Francis Alappatt, director of the Jubilee Mission Medical College and Research Institute, also spoke. Governor R.L. Bhatia, Speaker K. Radhakrishnan, Revenue Minister K.P. Rajendran and Thrissur Archbishop Jacob Thoomkuzhy were among those present on the occasion.

A Red Parasol of Communal Harmony

Setting an example of communal harmony, the Jubilee Mission Medical College and Research Institute is adorning its 'altar'' with a ''red-parasol,'' presented by a temple on all Fridays and during special occasions. Fr. Dr. Francis Alappatt, Director and CEO of the Jubilee Mission considers that the 'umbrella,' presented by Paramekkavu Devaswom in the city, was not just a 'special gift'' but a living example of communal harmony.

The parasol was presented to the Institution by the Paramekkavu Devasom in 2006 as gratitude to the service rendered by the Jubilee Mission Hospital for saving the lives of seven pyrotechnicians. The pyrotechnicians had suffered severe burn injuries in an explosion, a few days ahead of the Thrissur Pooram, at a cracker manufacturing unit at Padookkad. The tragedy occurred when the pyrotechnicians were engaged in making crackers for the grand fireworks display marking the conclusion of the world famous Thrissur pooram of 2006. The injured were admitted to hospital and realising the seriousness of their injuries, hospital authorities constituted a special medical core-team with physicians, plastic surgeons and special trained medical staff in attending burn cases to treat the injured people.
