We have been introduced to the picture of hospital as clean, white and organized institution. But if you belong in the family who don’t have enough means to sustain too many expenses then you probably seen the usual picture of a public hospital. Maybe you have seen patients that area staying in the corridor of the hospital. You probably seen the ratio of the nurse to patient is remarkable.

The big difference between public and private hospital are clearly seen. This is not only visible in terms of the payment but also in the kind of environment and services. Don’t get me wrong I know that doctors and nurses who are working in both institutions are doing their best to supply the best care that they can give. But the truth is that we can’t deny the fact that most of the public hospitals are getting shortage when it comes to the financial status. We are very much informed that the public hospitals have the responsibility to cure all the patients that come into their door if they can. The statistic shows that more than 50% of the patient can received medical treatment without payment.

The sad thing is that this is not well implemented because of the lack of the high technology and specialized services. Because of this reason they are forced to provide care that are only within their means which are normally out to date.

There are also cases where in the public hospitals staffs are forced to use disposal materials twice. They are taught to be resourceful in many ways just to come up with the proper care that they need to provide.

This matter should concern the government and even public officials to be concern on their hospitals. It will surely take a long run before our public hospital can be line with the outstanding private hospital.
