Am honoured and excited to have the opportunity to speak at the first National Industrial Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Conference in India. This was an idea conceptualised by Dr Subroto Das & his wife, Sushmita. They both started an EMS service called Lifeline after they were injured in a road traffic accident.
Hear his experience on a TEDx video at: https://youtu.be/T43mxJ-hCjs.
It is inspiring and hopeful to see how they started off and have developed since. And having attended the conference, once cannot emphasise the importance of collaboration to build a better system of care. The system is only as strong as its weakest link. Furthermore, healthcare is not just about saving lives… its about giving one a good quality of life. One of my favourite quotes from the conference,“Let's not add years to life but add life to years!!!”
