Urgent! Need List Of Ubon Ratchathani Hospital Phone Numbers

[sarias]

My wife's brother was just attacked by a group of <deleted> and beaten into a coma - taken from the hospital in Nakhon Phanom to one in Ubon Ratchathani and we don't know which one. We live in San Francisco and unfortunately the victim is the only member of her family with the wherewithal to deal with anything like this. No one can tell us what hospital he's in. I tried to access some hospital phone numbers on line from here but it's not possible. Can anyone here help us out with a list? THANK YOU!

Sapit Prasong Hospital 045321174

on Sapasit road , government hospital .

[sarias]

Thanks. That was the only number we had already. He's not there. I can get a list on line here but that's the only one with a number listed. We're really frightened for him because he was originally moved from the local hospital to the 'big hospital' in Nakhon Phanom and then they sent him off again from there. Apparently no simple bump on the head.

An other one on the map is Rajavej Hospital but I think that is the private one .

[elwood]

Area code for Ubon is (0)45.

Rajavej - 280040 ; Ubonrak 260300 and 260285. These are private hospitals but he could have been sent there.

The following are from an old booklet, so I hope that they are still valid;

The number you have, 321174, on my list is Saphasit Prasong Army Force Hospital, which is also used by civilians

The number I have for the main government hospital, Saphasit Provincial Hospital in Saphasit Road, is 240074 - this is most likely where he would have been sent.

Central Memorial 254771.

Payathai 284001.

As I said, these are from an old booklet, but should imagine that they have not changed. If I find anything more up to date I will send again.

Good luck.

Hello again; just found a pouch that contained pills issued by Saphasit last year - number written is 045 - 244973, but have also seen the number 240074, that I gave previously, on a website, so have a go at all!

[sarias]

Thank you all so much. Since there is really nothing we can do from here and my wife has finally fallen asleep I'll just leave this list by the bed for her. If her sources don't come through for her and call soon she at least has some numbers to call now.

Within 6 months of our moving here (year and a half ago) both her father and aunt passed away. Now this.... It can be tough to be 7,000 miles from home on the best of days, really difficult at times like this. And a horrible, impotent feeling when there is a crisis in the family and she can't be there to help.

Thanks again for helping out.

Sorry that last post did not format

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hospitals_in_Thailand

[sarias]

Yeah, I'd seen that wiki list. They tell us how many beds each hospital has but not their phone numbers. It finally dawned on me that we should just call the hospital in Nakhon Phanom and ask where they sent him. It turns out they never had him. And my brother-in-law's friend - who was with him when it happened and may or may not have told my mother-in-law that he went to Nakhon Phanom (SHE says he did...) - isn't answering his phone.

After 24 hours neither his brother nor mother can tell us what hospital he's in! And they wonder why I wanted to put an ocean between us....

[nichapaS]

Hi, i'm from Ubonratchatanee but livning in BKK right now. i'm so sorry about your brother and If you dont mind giving me your bro's first name and info, i'll call all the hospitals that i know in Ubon for you. i know what it must feel like for your wife, ive been in one of those situation before. Hopefully your brother will get better soon.

[AliasJohn]

PM his name and I will run around the hospitals for you.My business is close to all the hospitals and is better I go in person. Quick response that way. Regards John

[David Peters]

Very good of you John to do this. From my experience, patients from outside provinces such as Nakhon Pannom are transferred straight to Saphasit Provincial Hospital. Never to a private hospital, never to the army hospital in Warin. Being transferred from NP to Ubon means that it is serious and only Saphasit can deal with serious cases. .I wouldn't even bother looking anywhere else beside Saphasit.. But it will be difficult for you to get patient information from the hospital as you are not a relative. My guess is that family from NP are already there and mobile phone calls to them will provide the quickest answer.

[kdc1899]

Is he prior military? 2 military hospitals in Ubon and Warin. Also, Ubon is a province. He may be in any of the 30 some odd hospitals in this province.

Good luck.

[sarias]

Thank you David and John. Sorry for the delay, guys. We slept and are just waking up. My wife Lam called Saphasit last night but they didn't know if he's there. Apparently he didn't have his ID on him so they don't have him registered. His friend drove back to NP to get his ID but that was 12 hours ago and he's still not answering his phone. Maybe he's sleeping. It's a long drive.

Anyway, my wife's brother's name is Sangma Raksamerwong. John, if you still wouldn't mind taking a look for us it would be greatly appreciated. I realise it is getting late there but the way things are going we may still be in this same situation tomorrow morning your time. Lam is going out of her head with worry, especially as we know his injuries were obviously serious enough to warrant transferring him 370km. Usually anything they can't handle in NP gets transferred to Sakon Nakhon.

[kdc1899]

Have you called the original hospital in Nakhon Phanom ?

They should know where they transfered him to (or at least the name and phone number of the ambulance company).

We tried that but as he didn't have any ID on him they had no record of his being there. Lam has tried to call the emergency room to see if someone there might remember him there but they don't answer their phone either. It's not easy to figure this out if people don't answer their dam_n phones.

[kdc1899]

Just have her call them (initial hospital in Nakhon Phanom) back and speak to the ambulance dispatcher. If for some reason the dispatcher has no record of a 300 km job that he gave (and recieved a kickback for) to the ambulance company (can't be more than 5 local ambulance companies) that transfered the brother; at least the dispatcher can give your wife the phone numbers of the 3 or 4 ambulance companies (probably one) that would have the equipment and personal on hand to recieve that very lucrative job. I'm positive a hospital nurse and probably an anesthesiologist were in the sizable ambulance that would be required to transport the personal needed to monitor and maintain a coma patient for that distance.

I went to visit somebody at Sapphasit hospital a while ago, but they couldn't find the guy because they used his middle name. I'm befriended with the local tourist police in Ubon, will call them today to find out where he is.

I'll keep you informed, please let us know when you've found him.

P.S. Coma patients were normally transferred to Sapphasit hospital, a very high medical standard. Let's hope the best.

Good luck!

An other one on the map is Rajavej Hospital but I think that is the private one .

They wouldn't bring a coma patient to a private hospital without having the order doing so.

[sarias]

We got the doctor's number and just spoke to him. Lam's brother just woke up! He'll be OK but it's going to take a little time. His brain really got rattled.

Thank you all soooo much for your advice and good wishes. It was very helpful.
