Ragana Diet – News –
On his last breath, Ali arrived at the hospital, where he breathed his last after a journey of pain that lasted for days at home, which he used to silence with painkillers. He did not dare to visit the hospital until his house became like a drink of water…it was too late. The moment he arrived at the emergency department, “he was the surgeon,” says Suleiman Haroun, the head of the Syndicate of Owners of Private Hospitals in Lebanon.
Ali died, and others like him died, who succumbed to the pain in their homes, after entering the hospital became a luxury that only those who have money can afford. This death is not exceptional. With hospitalization bills so high, it is no longer surprising that similar incidents occur, especially since patients are taking many accounts before thinking of going to the hospital or even to the doctor’s office. It is noteworthy that these accidents have become more visible, as Haroun indicates an increase in the cases that reach hospitals “with the last breath”, and most of them are serious accidents. Thus, it is no longer surprising, for example, that a diabetic patient’s foot was amputated because he was late in receiving treatment, and this happened in a hospital, Haroun confirms, or that a patient dies due to a heart condition that was not taken into account. According to Haroun, “There are many cases, for example, that arrive at the hospital, and the owner has suffered a heart attack or has severe abdominal pain, so that it becomes clear after the examinations that serious things have occurred, such as the blockage of the bowel.” Symptoms that can be avoided, but the loss of people’s ability to visit health institutions, and the inability of the guarantor funds to secure the most basic rights for their affiliates, after the differences between what you pay to hospitals and what you miss recently are measured in “light years”, all of which make what was previously impossible an issue. Really today. This is an inevitable direct consequence of the collapse.
The crisis, in turn, affected the number of occupied beds in hospitals, as the decline in occupancy touched 60%. This means that what is currently occupied is estimated at about 40% at best and sometimes less than that, after the number of patients decreased from approximately 6 thousand to 4 thousand, or 3 thousand and 500 patients at other times. This has prompted a large number of hospitals to take operational measures, which are evident today in reducing departments, according to Haroun, so that hospitals reduce the number of beds in their departments to half. In the direct reasons, Haroun refers to the obvious result related to the decrease in the number of hospitalization seekers, while the other reasons are due to the inability of hospitals to operate departments, and therefore “they resort to these measures to reduce operational costs in terms of electricity, staff and medical services.” In addition, the third reason, which is no less important, is related to the decline in specialists in some departments, and the nursing staff in particular. And if austerity affects, according to the captain of private hospital owners, all departments without exception, there are departments that are affected more than others, and the austerity in some of them has reached the point of merging into other departments. In this context, it is possible to talk about the surgical departments in which the number of beds has decreased significantly, as well as the intensive care rooms for children. Despite the crisis in those cares, because “it does not exist in all hospitals, and we have a problem with it in the first place, the current conditions come to make matters worse, as the number of beds in them is forcibly decreasing today due to its equipment, its exorbitant operational costs, and the shortage of specialists available to operate these departments.” Aaron concludes.
