In 2006, when I was leaving anesthesia and initiated Emergency Medicine program in Kerala with the support of GWU and IIEMS in Calicut Mims and Dr.Ashish Nandi in Kims Trivandrum, we had only one PG program in Kerala at AIMS Kochi under Dr.Gireesh Kumar.The unconditioned support from Dr.Bobby Kapoor, Dr.George Abraham, Dr. Tamorish Kole and Dr.Azad Moopen in initiating and experimenting a new concept and training program have to be mentioned. The growth of EM in Kerala is tremendous and grass route level. Nine years created history. More than 50 hospitals are holding proper EM in Kerala. More than 100 qualified Emergency physicians are working in Kerala. More than 300 residents and more than 700 ems staff are working in this small state. More than 40 percent DNB Emergency Medicine seats of national average are in Kerala. 352 Asap emct trainees and 150 Angels emct trained volunteers are available here. Asian Ems award, AAEMI award, and Aiims entrepreneurship award have reached to angels community ems network. The sparkling touch of a very vibrant district magistrate of Calicut Dr.PB Salim IAS helped EM Kerala to cross the boundaries of hospitals. IIEMS Kottayam is a pre-hospital training initiative of Dr.George Abraham has bagged platinum status of AHA in 2014 and 2015.The highest number of life support providers in Kerala. India's biggest community-based ems network with 500 ambulances is running in Kerala. Five medical colleges in Kerala state are running PG program in EM.More than 300 EMS paramedics who have been trained from Kerala, are now placed safely and high level in various parts of Globe. EM veteran Prof.Suresh David moved from Vellore to Kerala recently and enriched EM Kerala. EM pioneer Dr.Babu Palatty moved from Bangalore to Trichur and enforcing em training in Kerala. More than 7 AHA ITC are operating in Kerala. India first rural Emergency Medicine center has been launched at Omasseri. India first community-based rural Emergency medical care task force has been launched in last week at Kondothpalam village. India's first community-based bike rescue team with 150 higher ends trained volunteers launched in 2014 in Calicut. Emcon 13, the biggest em conference was hosted at Waynad in November 2013 with a theme of caring people. .bridging gap was the unique medical conference with its public participation. When we organized emcon 13 in Kerala, our aim was to sensitize entire state to em concept and to bring quality em care here. Honorable Chief Minister of Kerala Sri. Ommen Chandy was the chief patron of Emcon 13.We did India's biggest Emergency Medicine road show in connection with Emcon 13 which covered 14 districts with 102 shows that attracted thousands of people in Kerala.This amazing growth of EM has happened in a small state with a population of 3/123 cr of India.Kerala Government health services are the only area where em penetration is relatively less paced. The most popular hill station pilgrimage destination of Kerala, now moving from the concept of cardiology center to Emergency Medical care centers with trained volunteers. The death rate in Sabarimala was very high ( average 1.5 deaths per day in the season ) due to the lack of primary life support care. This year Government has taken it very seriously and trying to establish proper EM care. Proudly observing the life-saving mission in Kerala. ...when looking back, l myself jumped out of a well established and safe specialty to an area that was not known to anybody in the locality and nobody like to move to Indian casualty in a decade back. Honestly, Em is the most wanted glamorous specialty in the region.

Mooppada Home : A complete go green concept home in my home village

I have an ancestral property in Cherukara, precisely on the Cherukara-Chelamala road near the Aligarh University campus in Cherukara-Elamkulam village ( Malappuram District). Originally, my grandfather owned this property, then transferred it to my father and eventually to me. When I inherited it, it was a “Mottakunnu,” barren except for numerous rocks, without a single tree. Fifteen years ago, I promised my father that, God willing, I would build a home on it.  This land is imbued with my childhood memories, including my life there and our affection for plants and domestic animals. Now, a dream has been realized. We have just formally moved into our dream “Mooppada Home.” The construction took seven months to complete, adhering to a theme that did not disturb the natural environment.  We preserved all the soil, rocks, and plants, protecting nature as it is. The property utilizes solar energy and natural water sources. The house is built in an “Erumadam” style but includes all modern

 Civil station -Kozhikode Booth 83 at 7.30 am The queue at 9.30am without any change  Voting at Kozhikode As a responsible citizen, I endeavored to cast my vote at Kozhikode Civil Station Government UP School Booth number 83. I joined the queue at 7:45 am and remained there until 9:15 am. Unfortunately, the queue was at a standstill, and I was unaware of the situation inside the booth. Many individuals were postponing their voting to resolve the issue. Consequently, I also left the booth without casting my vote. Perhaps I will make another attempt later in the evening. It's worth noting that some people had been standing in the queue since 6:45 am, patiently waiting for their turn. "After standing in line for two hours, I finally managed to cast my vote at noon on my second attempt. The queue system in Calicut was somewhat embarrassing. They allowed 3 to 4 senior citizens, 2 women, and then 1 man, which caused a significant delay in the men's queue. The management's un

This performance was staged at the I MA Kozhikode as part of the New Year celebration in 2024. All credit for the motivation to do this performance goes to my better half and star dancer, Dr. Supriya . Sudhi Kadalundi was the choreographer, and his team supported us in the chorus. The songs from the movies Oru Maravathoor Kanavu ( Sundariye) and Kudukku ( Theyithaka ) The success of any group art performance hinges on teamwork. Some elements, like song and background selection, occurred spontaneously in this performance. The highlight was the impromptu choreography, seamlessly matching the steps to the song and setting. Mr. Sudhi Kadakundi excels in this area with his expertise and experience. We garnered significant appreciation and applause from the audience. Ultimately, such performances outside our professional realm provide immense joy and a meditative experience. Choreographer Sudhi Kadakundi and Chorus  Comment from DrShukur Guntur  , Andra Pradesh
