In the wake of the recent gas pipeline fire in Putra Heights, The Red Clinic at Jaya One is reaching out to the community with a heartfelt initiative free wound care consultations for burn victims affected by the tragic incident.
Burn wounds are delicate and, if not properly cared for, can lead to infections or long-term complications. Recognizing this, The Red Clinic wants to ensure that victims receive timely, professional support as they begin their recovery.
A Doctor Who Truly Cares
At the forefront of this effort is Dr Richard Ngu, a dedicated practitioner with a strong background in wound management. He honed his skills in a high-pressure orthopedic unit and now holds a Postgraduate Diploma in Wound Care from Lincoln. Known for his gentle approach and clinical precision, Dr Richard is deeply committed to helping his patients heal well both physically and emotionally.
He's usually based at the clinics Jaya One branch, and his consultation hours can be found on their website.
Support Beyond the Hospital
While serious burns require initial care at a hospital, proper follow-up care is just as important. That's where The Red Clinic steps in. They offer expert advice and assessment free of charge, even if you choose to have your wound dressings done elsewhere.
For patients with existing health conditions like diabetes, consistent and correct dressing routines are especially important. Unfortunately, wound care products can be expensive, sometimes costing hundreds per session. While the clinic can't fully cover these costs, their goal is to empower patients with knowledge and guidance to manage their recovery safely.
