An innovative approach to life care and health for new mothers and children
Posted: 19-Aug-2009

     Samitivej Hospital is committed to providing patients with service that is limitless and “beyond walls” through its innovative information technology. This will provide patients will a new and comprehensive medical care experience that will bring them closer to their physicians.
     Samitivej Hospital has taken its healthcare service to an even higher level by implementing and combining science, technology and mind to create new standards of excellence in medical care.
     One of the innovative technologies for life introduced by Samitivej Hospital is the “Home Care” service, which applies IT and communications in creating a sense of confidence and assurance among patients, even after they have been discharged from the hospital. Once the patients return home, they may install the program on their home computer, and instantly get connected to the hospital, where doctors and nurses will continue to provide utmost and close care to patients. Patients may seek advice from the doctors, who are able to see the patients and their conditions through digital camera in real time communication. This service is currently available to new mothers as they require special advice and assistance
      Samitivej Hospital is the only private hospital to be awarded the Gold Class-Family Bonding Hospital for excellence in mother and child care and to receive the prestigious recognition as a Mother and Baby Friendly Hospital by WHO and UNICEF.
      These awards and achievements are a testament to Samitivej Hospital’s ability to provide advice to new mothers in all areas of motherhood, particularly with regards to breastfeeding. Breastfeeding is of paramount importance to the development of a child.
       Experience shows that not all mothers are able to successfully breastfeed their child and this is why Samitivej Hospital has implemented the Baby Homecare service, to assist new mothers and provide them with the necessary support.
      A team of qualified doctors and nurses are available 24 hours via the computer to offer advice to new mothers. Another service offered by Samitivej Hospital is “Look @ My Baby” service where parents and the family can watch the baby’s movements and behavior in the nursery through the IP VDO on the LCD TV in the comfort of their room. This avoids any disruption to the baby while they are asleep and also minimizes any infections the baby may receive from visitors.  All you need to do is to call the nurse at the nursery to switch on the camera on the baby’s crib and you can enjoy seeing your little bundle of joy any time!
 

      The Baby Homecare and Look @ My Baby is the latest innovative technological services provided by Samitivej Hospital on the occasion of the 30th anniversary celebrations.
