Doctors in tough spot as critical patients are forced to wait
Telangana Institute of Medical Sciences (TIMS) is witnessing a heavy demand for ICU admissions for COVID-19 patients. With ICU beds almost full at the facility, doctors there are in a spot as they are forced to turn away family members unless an ICU bed is vacated. Three ICUs are located on the ground floor, second floor and fourth floor of the institute.
“Since we work in a government hospital, we can’t ask people to take their patient to a private hospital. We are going through traumatic times. As cases are increasing fast, more number of patients will require ICU beds. But there are enough number of beds with oxygen supply. The institute is serving its purpose. But nothing more can be done about the overwhelming demand,” said a doctor at the hospital.

Ordeal of COVID patients and their families continues as they hunt for hospitals
“The hospital staff are insisting on a RT-PCR positive report before admitting the patient. Even a High-Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) report showing damage to lungs is being ignored,” lamented a patient’s relative at the Telangana Institute of Medical Sciences and Research on Tuesday.
