According to the article, Philips India has showcased its ‘hospital on wheels’ which hosts facilities from an ambulance to ICU.
This ‘hospital on wheels’ is part of an intensive awareness campaign called IntelliSafari where Philips will target smaller hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities in India covering 300 clinicians over the next month, familiarizing them with state-of-the-art healthcare technology, available at a low cost.
With IntelliSafari, Philips is trying to demonstrate that advanced technology does not always mean expensive technology. The goal of the program is to bring new life saving technology closer to the masses at an affordable price.
A healthcare provider’s responsibility is to provide early and accurate diagnosis along with the best possible treatment, but the price to attain such treatment is often a stumbling block for many small hospitals. Now, with the help of Philips, smaller hospitals can focus on providing patients with the best possible care.
The van is set to travel across key cities in Kerala, before moving on to Karnataka and other parts of India, covering 80 cities in four weeks.
