Message from the Managing Director
Dear All,
First of all, it is my pleasure to greet you all and share some of the ongoing activities of AHTC.
There is a changing pattern of RTA in Nepal from low to high energy collision. Many people bleed to death on the roads, and some even loose lifes or become lifelong morbid because of delayed treatment. Simple fracture of bone results into amputation of the limb or even death due to mismanagement at the initial hours at the outset.
There are many hospitals and health centres, (most of them located at Kathmandu valley) in Nepal but none is focused towards trauma and rehabilitation. There is not a single trauma centre in Nepal. There is not a single hospital except HRDC which deals with physical disabilities. We have been doing a lot of such cases on charity basis.
We have a lot to improve in this trauma centre to make it the best trauma centre not only in Nepal but also in the south Asia.
Alive hospital and trauma centre is the first trauma centre in Nepal that also built outside Kathmandu valley, in a view to provide timely and efficient services to the patients within the golden hour. We have been doing so many of such cases. We extend our hands with all those who are interested for help and support of the patients in need.
Best wishes
Dr Pramod Lamichhane
Managing Director, AHTC
