Our member Ms A. Chakrabarty, was discharged from the hospital and was prescribed injections at regular intervals to keep her stable. On 27th May, 2024, ZC Mr S. Mukhopadhyay received a call from our member’s family regarding the urgent requirement of the injection to be given. The weather being cyclonic very few medicine shops were open and no medical assistant was available. Without bothering about the weather conditions, Mr Mukhopadhyay immediately set out to get the injection. He bought the injection and found a medical assistant who could give the injection and took him along with him to the member’s house. After the injection was provided, the ZC waited to ensure that our member was fine and then left the house.

On 20th April’24 after calling our member Mr S. Mitra numerous times when ZC Mr A. Rudra didn’t receive any reply, he immediately went to check our member’s wellbeing. After ringing the bell for quite sometime when he didn’t receive any response from Mr Mitra, he got worried.
Mr Rudra started finding a way to look inside the house while calling Mr Mitra’s name. Mr Rudra somehow found a window, which he could force open. Through that he could see Mr Mitra lying on the floor. After calling a few times he heard him moaning and saw his legs move slightly. He immediately called another staff and MCA Mr S. N Pramanik reached him within a few minutes. With the help of the local police Mr. Rudra could enter the house. He found Mr. Mitra lying unconscious on the floor. Along with MCA Pramanik, Mr Rudra rushed our member to the nearby hospital. The doctor immediately put him on saline and started his treatment. Our member recovered within three days and he was brought back home with care by Mr Rudra.

While monitoring the medical data our CNC team found that our member Dr N. Mukherjee’s respiratory rate had increased a lot.
Ms S. Roy of the CI team shared the report with our member’s family.Initially they thought it must be for some temporary reason.
Ms Roy was concerned since the data continued showing increased heart rate of our member. During her visit she observed that he was breathless while speaking and also complained of a pain on the lower part of his chest. His wife too checked and found that a part had swollen and become red. She immediately requested for a consultation with our doctor partners. Dr K. Basu suggested a blood culture and chest x-ray. This was arranged at home and the report showed a patch of pneumonia. Dr Basu prescribed antibiotics, taking which our member’s respiratory rate normalized, making him
feel much better.

ZC Mr B. Basu had received a call from our member Ms S. Busch around 11.42 p.m. stating that there was no electricity. As she has breathing problem, it is necessary for her to use the sleep apnea machine for a comfortable sleep. Due to power failure, she was unable to use the machine and was worried that she might incur breathing problems. Understanding the gravity of the situation Mr Basu called the Alarm Centre and they informed MCA Mr M. Sinha to reach the member’s house immediately. He contacted the CESC people instantly and took them along to the member’s house, got the problem detected and resolved. Then he switched on the sleep apnea machine and our member was greatly relieved. After ensuring that electricity was restored and there wouldn’t be any further issue Mr Sinha left the house at around 12.34 a.m.
