Am intending to start a Home health Services business. The aim is to offer medical services at the client's/patient's home. Services that will be offered is; Physiotherapy, Nursing, Occupational Therapy, Speech & language therapy and mobility aids.

01.01 Décrivez votre projet en détail

Almasy Home Health services will be mobile medical care unit. This unit will comprise of a multidisciplinary professionals and licensed individuals; Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Medical doctors, Nurses, Patient attendants & Speech Therapists. I also intend to partner with other medical health providers like hospitals, ambulance service companies and medical suppliers for medical need extensions. In my diverse career experience in health sector, over time a witnessed patients being neglected once they are discharged from the hospital. I have seen there is gap between the patient and the medical profession in terms of follow ups and adaptation. This unit will be more organised and orderly with medical professions and will solely work with surgeons and liaisons personnel for referrals. The aim is to forge the relationship between local and overseas medical doctors and for those patients who requires follow ups.

01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?

Our country's population is 60% made of youth and major is amongst this young generation face is unemployment. Most of the medical professions are actively working towards leaving the country for employment. For this reason, Almasy Home Health Service will create employment for young medical professionals that will be involved in providing medical services to patients. Health services is very expensive and this will come in hand as medical stepdown hence being affordable for patients with medical insurances and without. During my career, I witnessed most spinal cord and brain injury patients having difficulty in adapting to their environment simply because there's no medical profession to help the patient in behavioural change in avoidance of further medical complications that may result to unnecessary expenses and trauma. Almasy Home Health Service will be an overflow channel for public referral hospitals and other mission facilities.
