The Thai Department of Health Services ้ has held a training session for private hospitals on how to detect and treat Ebola patients.
According to the department, there are a few hospitals that failed to comply with the standard procedures when treating patients suspected of having Ebola.
Although there is no report of patients with Ebola in Thailand, the Ministry of Public Health is taking no chances. Medical personnel in private hospitals in Bangkok have recently been trained on how to contain and detect the fatal disease.
They have also been instructed to follow the standard protocols, including abiding by the safety procedure if any patient is treated for Ebola in their hospitals, monitoring the global outbreak, and identifying ways to prevent the spread once a patient is admitted.
People are encouraged to call Hotline 1442 to report to the Department of Disease Control if they find anyone with suspicious symptoms.-VNA
