You Hospitalised
Food-borne diseases have caused thousands of
people to be hospitalised each year. According to
TIME’s research 351,000 people from around the
world die of food poisoning every year, thus making
it a growing global medical concern. In light of this,
ambulance services may prove to be an inevitable
solution to the problem. The 108 ambulance service
has provided a quick and efficient emergency
medical service network in India, equipped to tackle
the situation of a steady decline in the health and
well-being of people across the country.
Over the past century, our lifestyles have undergone
tremendous change. Consequently, eating habits
have dwindled as well. Human longevity that saw a
huge jump in the last 100 years, has also witnessed
quite an evident decline in the 21st century. Stomach
ailments have become an everyday phenomenon on
account of erratic food habits, without any heed to
its nutritive value. What has changed? Is it the
widespread use of packaged food laced with
preservatives, whose composition the consumers
have no clue about? No matter how determined you
are to maintain a nutritious lifestyle, the fast-paced
era demands that we compromise on our own
healthy state of being.
This brings us to the question: What happens when we
consume junk food on a regular basis? Obesity is one
condition that is spreading at quite an uncontrollable pace. In
addition to unhealthy food, the recurrent lack of exercise can
lead to respiratory disorders, apart from digestive and
gastrointestinal abnormalities.
The body can react in many ways to consumption of fast foods, food
poisoning being one of the major diseases that is apparent on a
global scale. Different kinds of bacteria could lead to food poisoning
and to various degrees of intensity. The cause for this could be
unhygienic cooking methods, especially in the monsoon season,
which may lead to incomplete destruction of harmful micro-
organisms.
The onset period of this disease could be 2 to 8 days and it could
last for a longer span if medical attention is not provided. This
could lead to hospitalization. It is estimated that food-borne
diseases cause approximately 76 million illnesses, 325,000
hospitalizations, and 5,000 deaths in the United States alone,
each year.
Imagine yourself in a situation where you feel an immense
evacuation of energy confining your abilities to do anything by
yourself. Food poisoning is one such condition that can cause
extreme dehydration and may land you in a precarious situation,
unable to breathe or even intake a morsel of food. However,
medical services in India are fortunately at pace with the need of
the hour. The government, in partnership with private
organisations such as Ziqitza Healthcare Ltd has put in place the
108 ambulance services to facilitate better emergency medical
services in India.
As per the study done by Ziqitza Rajasthan they receive
maximum calls related to stomach pain due to various
reasons across the states they are operating. 108
Ambulance service can transport you to the nearest
medical help in the shortest possible time span. The
government also utilizes the benefits offered by Ziqitza to
provide 108 ambulances with a team of fully trained
medical staff on board, in order to ensure proper
introduction of medical care in your body, at the earliest.
Emergency medical conditions don’t knock on the door;
they are quite an unpredictable disaster. Nonetheless in
the current context, it is a relief to know that medical
services in India are sufficiently competent to provide 24-
hour emergency medical services with one call.
