Team work and Heart

heart surgery is a team work effort.single handedly any job undertaken cannot achieve its destination unless there is team effort from whole team.

suppose the team is not cohesive with the surgeon in patient management ,the outcome is not good in patient's favour.


any untoward incidence can take place in day to day practise of cardiac surgery.

the entire team should be well equipped to handle the emergency without any hinderances.
it should be smooth sailing for the patient as well as team.

the good outcome of the patient is our goal. there should be a leader in a given situation and all others should follow his or her directives regardless of the their current status without any reluctance.

there is a tendency when two human minds are involved in a situation the solution lies in sharing of work adequately .sharing of available resources to meet demands is the most viable option rather than burning own fingers in the process,just to prove supremacy.

any procedure can be undertaken single handedly also shared with the team mates.if a given situation is handled single handedly ,in long run it can prove disastrous for his  health.

protocol based approach to any problem can reduce the stress and ambiguity in any given situation . 

goal based approach can further help . 

economics of heart

the close association of heart health and money cannot be overemphasized.you have money ,lots of it , you can ask for best of heart treatments available on the shelf.the emergence of issues relating to treatment and prolongation of the same need to be taken into account while deciding .

 we are not taught about money matters in our school curriculum and there is a gap in meeting the requirement of money. we read about large pay packets being doled out to students passing out from engineering or management stream.by the time the child is pursuing the said stream and is ready to face the world , the scenario is completely different. at that given point his stream of choice is not being paid similar to what it was being honored when he set out to achieve it.

this dilemma is faced by many a soul and few have to face it on hand too. they are not at all trained to face such situations in life.so something is lacking in our education or the need to inculcate the value of money should be set in right from the childhood.

money can buy everything but not love.the importance of sweat on the brow needs to be taught to the younger generations .the idea to save for the future unforeseen circumstances should be taught. even if the pay package is more and the man is not able to enjoy life , there is no use struggling so much for the daily bread .

this is closely linked to heart health too.suppose a man is suffering from heart ailment or heart attack ,apart from physical ,mental anguish,the patient has to face the economic hardships too.


splurging on money which comes in suddenly has become a fashion. we donot think of the tragedy which awaits us round the corner.and then start blaming the  situation.

children should be taught the importance of money saved is money earned. and money builds further money.they should be inculcated the good habit of saving . it does not mean that we should not enjoy and keep on saving always. small amount of saving is to be taken out every month .with the compounded interest the money what we have saved after few years will be sufficient to ride over any tragedy .

there are lot of options available on the market.taking out a term plan is one such instrument.variety of endowments plans are also available.one has to make oneself aware of these instruments .

it is wise to have a term plan for ten times the annual income and a critical care illness plan for atleast 3 times the monthly income . the term plan is a good choice for the family left behind and critical care illness for the tragedy for patient himself , help him ride over the income lost during period of his recovery . 


heart ailment and its management causes a lot of burden on the expenditure of the family.the post operative management with medications can cause a lot of burden if not adequately covered by insurance . 


Money and Heart

importance of money in heart ailments cannot be overemphasized.all heart ailments require a lot of money to be spent on treatment.

modern lifestyle illnesses put many a patient inot only in emotional,physical turmoil but also economic problems.our present study curriculum does not train an individual to be economically sturdy.this aspect is to be taught to children right from the begining.
they have to be taught to save for the winter days and also make their savings grow and work for them in times of need.

as a heart patient, one has to withstand financial turmoil apart from physical issues of admission to the hospital.how can one pay for the services in the hospital?
this dilemma and many other questions haunt the patient and their near and dear ones.
to be immune against these factors ,one has to be ready for any eventuality in life.
  

the requirement of ready cash in hand is possible if one has the habit of saving for the winter days.children are to be taught about this aspect from the very begining regarding savings and also power of compounding.regular savings will add upto a massive amount in long run.

this aspect is not covered in our regular studies and effort has to be made by parents in teaching children .as soon as one gets first payment ,every child /young man need to be introduced to the concept of saving.

lot of modalities are available in the market for saving purposes . one needs to evaluate and educate himself regarding term plan/ endowment plans.the medical insurance should be one of priority.
calamity befalls anyone and at any time. but if one is ready for any eventuality ,the smooth sailing through the illness can be less stressful than otherwise.
