Awg Zainal Abidin
(R), GM of Primatel Communications presents the
sponsored items to Dr R Dwarakanathan.
Patients of the Kiarong
Dialysis Centre can now enjoy better entertainment
facilities with the addition of three more television
sets sponsored by Primatel Communications.
The three television
sets were presented to a representative of RIPAS
hospital, Dr R Dwarakanathan, the Head and Specialist
Nephrologist of the Renal Unit, RIPAS, by the General
Manager of Primatel Communications, Awg Zainal Abidin.
The entertainment units
were given to the centre as a means to better serve the
community whilst at the same time promoting a better
quality of life.
Awg Zainal Abidin hoped
that their sponsorship could in some way aid those
patients whilst receiving their treatment at the centre.
The Kiarong Dialysis
Centre has been in operation since 2001, when it was
re-opened following the establishment of its main centre,
the Kampong Rimba Dialysis Centre.
It was reported that
the centre in Kiarong receives as many as 36 dialysis
patients who are overseen by two nurses in each shift.
Only six patients can receive treatment at a time.
