Ms Gani, who stays in a flat under the care of Support Elders, was detected with arterial blockage during a routine ECG. The cardiologist advised her to go for pacemaker implantation.
The family members were informed of the doctor’s advice. The Support Elders staff started coordinating with the cardiologist and the member’s family to assist Ms Gani undergo all pre- and post-operative tests and making arrangements for admission at the hospital.
A day ahead of the surgery, an MCA accompanied the member and admitted her to the hospital. During the surgery and thereafter, the Zonal Coordinator regularly updated the member’s family on the situation.
The Support Elders staff monitored the situation right up to her discharge and even after she was put under the care of nurses at home.
