Australians are helping Indonesians improve medical services

There is a need for Bali as a top tourist destination to always have updated medical facilities and hospital in general aside from having just Bali luxury villas and private villas in Bali. This is because tourists may just suddenly need some medical attention and the time saved from not having to go to farther hospitals may spell another life saved.


Thanks to Australia, which has been helping Bali since the terrorist attack in Bali wherein about 88 Australians were among the 200 fatalities, Bali today has improved medical services.


During the said terrorist bombing, Bali’s Sanglah Hospital served as the treatment center of about hundreds of injured people. However, 62 Australians had to be flown to the Royal Darwin Hospital as they needed emergency treatment. It may be noted that the Bali’s Sanglah Hospital had been receiving training from medical professionals shortly before the bombings.

And with the 10th anniversary of the Bali bombing, Dr. Len Notaras, The head of Darwin's National Critical Care and Trauma Response Centre, is visiting again the said hospital to have talks on additional trainings. With this training, an estimated 65,000 Australians are being treated every year at Bali’s Sanglah Hospital.

“For Australians travelling abroad, if there is an incident or an episode occurs while someone is away we can actually become involved much more quickly because we know the individuals up there,” said Dr. Notaras.

This move is especially useful since there is a need for the island to balance its beautiful Bali villas resort with updated hospitals and centers for treatment. With this, more tourists from everywhere in the world will be complacent whenever they will visit Bali.
