| Truly a fitting celebration to mark the National Heart Month, Asian Hospital and Medical Center pulsates with breakthroughs that bring to the next level the quality of healthcare in the country. |
Aptly dubbed “First Beat,” the launch features three new innovations aimed at providing better services to patients: the Lifestyle Medicine Program, Asian Hospital and Medical Center Info Channel 98, and Service Enhancement Initiatives. |
“Through the years, Asian Hospital and Medical Center has always been at the forefront of innovating services for the benefit and satisfaction of patients. This year we’re introducing the Lifestyle Medicine Program offering topnotch services for lifestyle-related illnesses; Asian Hospital and Medical Center Info Channel 98, the information hub for everything about the hospital and the latest in medicine; and Service Enhancement Initiatives which provide enhanced patient care for a more pleasant and comfortable hospital stay,” said Theo Seiler, Chief Executive Officer of Asian Hospital and Medical Center. |
Lifestyle Medicine Program |
Asian Hospital and Medical Center has been actively educating the public about diseases that emanate from unhealthy lifestyle choices. The Lifestyle Medicine Program offers a comprehensive line-up of services focused on encouraging patients to get into a healthy lifestyle as well as providing treatment for lifestyle-related illnesses. |
The Lifestyle Medicine Program consists of services from the Cosmetic Surgery Services, Center for Women’s Health, Lasik/Refractive Laser Surgery Center, Dermatology Laser and Light Center, Sleep Laboratory, Executive Check-Up Packages, Nutrition Clinic, and the Golf Performance and Sports Rehabilitation Clinic. |
Asian Hospital and Medical Center Info Channel 98 |
Another first for Asian Hospital and Medical Center when it comes to modern advancement is the Asian Hospital and Medical Center Info Channel 98, a dedicated information channel that would bring patients and guests a wealth of information. |
Info Channel 98 offers information on medical services, hospital profile and admission procedures, safety and security advisories, and important directories. Patients can also watch Asian Hospital and Medical Center’s important milestones as well as stories of hope and survival from patients of Asian Charities. Educational programs such as medical lectures and updates, the latest medical news, hospital events such as the WiFi Launch and upcoming symposiums, medical tips, featured medical departments and procedures, and medical videopedia are also shown. Patients and guests can also view televised daily masses conveniently on their TV screens inside their rooms. |
Service Enhancement Initiatives |
Finally, Asian Hospital and Medical Center is introducing Service Enhancement Initiatives aimed at giving patients a more comfortable, hassle-free stay in the hospital. Patients will now be provided a variety of kits containing items that they would need during their confinement so they can relax and focus more on their recovery. |
Asian Hospital and Medical Center will provide a Guest Information Kit, which contains important directories, information on medical services and hospital procedures, a welcome message from the CEO, stationery, and pencil. Patient will be given a welcome kit, which consists of toiletry items such as shampoo, soap, toothbrush, lotion and among others. |
For pediatric patients, Asian Hospital and Medical Center will provide a Kiddie Backpack filled with coloring and activity books, crayons and toys. For new moms, a Maternity Bag will be given before they leave the hospital, where they can put all their baby stuff inside. |
Through these new innovative services, Asian Hospital and Medical Center hopes to serve as an inspiration in bringing world-class medical care to local patients and medical tourists. |
