Morbidity & mortility can be prevented if children are administered with treatment earlier and would not have to wait for the doctors to take care of them. This can be negated by employing a rapid triage of treatment to the children in case of their emergency admission and hopefully lead to immediate emergency care.
The department of Matushree Gomati Hospital gives treatment to children under the age of 18, for all illnesses. We understand that getting admitted to the hospital is a stressful time for both the children and their parents as they wish to get out of the hospital as soon as possible.
