Roads were shut and stern warnings were issued as the country experienced extreme weather conditions
As we reflect on the year gone by, it is filled with the kind of uncertainty and strugÂgle that our generation has never witÂnessed before. Millions of healthcare professionals across the world battled the unprecÂedented effects of the pandemic. We witnessed the fight for hope - for a better tomorrow, for a happier tomorrow. We, at KEF Holdings, were inspired by this resilience displayed by mankind and are determined to not just cope with the situÂation but to come out of it stronger.
With our flagship hospital, Meitra in Calicut, Kerala, we are constantly striving to bring quality healthcare closer to the patient. To be collaboraÂtive and create a healthcare ecosystem of learning and support. To enhance possibilities for cliniÂcians through technology adoption. But most importantly, we are determined to create an enÂvironment that would motivate the healthcare system to continually put patient-centricity above all else.
"It is the right time to leverage technological innovations to solve healthcare challenges, by givÂing the doctors more digital solutions in their arÂmamentarium. Meitra Hospital has always prided itself in being at the forefront of healthcare inÂnovations and have invested in technology and unique business models to enhance the healthcare ecosystem, scale its reach and create a truly enÂriching patient-centric experience," said Faizal E Kottikollon, Founder and Chairman, KEF HoldÂings and Meitra Hospital.
And this very thought led to the vision of creatÂing a network of like-minded organisations that work together to improve the delivery of healthÂcare in their regions at no additional cost. The pilot project was accomplished last year, when Meitra Hospital collaborated with Health MinÂistry, to establish Kerala's first Tele-ICU at Beach Hospital, Kozhikode, enabling the hospital to operate at 90 per cent occupancy in its critical care unit.
The official launch took place on the auspicious occasion of Kerala Piravi in September 2020, in the presence of Health Minister K K Shailaja, Faizal E Kottkollon, along with other dignitaries.
The Government General Hospital, also known as Beach Hospital, became the first member of Meitra Hospital's mission to upgrade and equip healthcare with technology and bridge an acute shortage of intensivists in the country.
This is only the beginning for KEF holdings, as we are entering a new era of redefining healthcare in India, UAE and in several other parts of the world, by redesigning the care delivery model beyond the traditional hospital set-up.
