A Timely Intervention

On 10 September 2024, ZC Mr R. Choudhury received a call from our member Ms N. Basu Roy’s daughter who reported that her mother required immediate hospitalisation. En route to the member’s residence, MCA Mr M. Maity called for an ambulance, asking for it to meet him there. He reached within minutes and found Ms Basu Roy in an unconscious state. She had had a stroke. He immediately took the member to the hospital in the ambulance. It turned out that there was a blood clot in Ms Basu Roy’s brain. The doctor advised surgery and the clot was removed. After four days of constant observation and treatment, our member was discharged.
The Support Elders staff brought her home and ensured that she had oxygen cylinders and an at-home nurse for constant health monitoring.

On-going Compassionate Care

On 14 September ’24, the Support Elders Alarm Centre received a call from the neighbour of our member Ms. K. Chowdhury. She mentioned that Ms. Chowdhury needed emergency care and asked us to send someone post-haste. MCA Mr. P. Biswas called for an ambulance to the member’s house and hurried over. He found that our member had fallen and injured her head. She was bleeding and required immediate hospitalization. Mr. Biswas helped her onto the ambulance and admitted her in the Emergency ward. Ms. Chowdhury was treated for her injury and received 3 stitches. She was then sent for a CT-scan to check for internal injuries. After the possibility of internal haemorrhage was ruled out, she was taken home by Mr. Biswas. ZC Mr. B. Chandra has been ensuring that her dressing is changed every alternate day until she makes a complete recovery.

Prediction of disease and cure

Our member Ms. A. Mukherjee used to suffer from cold most of the time due to which she kept ill most of the time. After consulting a doctor, the doctor suggested a blood test. Her test result showed that the CRP was high, which was indicative of an infection. As no further action was taken by the local doctor, the reports were sent to our UK based doctor partners. From them it was suggested that a chest x-ray be done and she was detected of Pneumonia. Medication was prescribed which continued for 20 days. She was again diagnosed after that and was found to have improved. Due to the Well@Home solution and its 24×7 monitoring of health parameters by our CNC team her health problem was predicted in time and cured.

Relief due to timely help

Recently, one of our members received a call from a miscreant who was looking to extort money from her. He claimed he was in possession of some inappropriate images of her–which were obviously fake–and threatened to go public with them. As the calls became more frequent, our member got worried. The caller then started blackmailing her, demanding money in exchange for the pictures. At this point our member notified the Alarm Centre. Mr. Fayzan listened to her patiently and realised that it was a case of criminal activity. He tried dialling the number and found that it was from Indore. He asked the ZC Mr. H. Ghosh to block the number immediately. Next, he called TRAI Indore and lodged a complaint. Our member reported that she received no further fraud calls, thanks to the timely help and series of actions taken by the staff. She was immensely relieved and thanked Support Elders wholeheartedly.
