Visiting a patient at Ara Damansara Medical Centre

On Thursday, July 16, 2015, my ex-colleague was admitted to Ara Damansara Medical Centre for dengue.  Ara Damansara Medical Centre is located at Lot 2, Jalan Lapangan Terbang Subang, Seksyen U2, 40150 Shah Alam, Selangor.
Ara Damansara Medical Centre is a tertiary hospital with Centres of Excellence for brain, heart and spine & joint. 
 I visited her on Sunday, July 19, 2015 at 2.30pm and stayed for two hours.
 She was supposed to be admitted at ParkCity Medical Centre but no ICU rooms were available so she was referred to Ara Damansara Medical Centre.
 Bought her a basket of fruits.
 
She was alone in the room when I came. Glad to see that she was her normal talkative and cheerful self. She is expected to discharge the next day which she did.  She was given a week's rest from work.

Till next week, rest well...
