- Abstract
Staff was trained to explain to COVID patients and families about medical insurance and its claims thereafter, which is not a routine for psychiatry patients. Despite these hassles, we started a designated COVID ward in our MHE and even started providing COVID treatment to nonpsychiatric COVID patients too. A physiotherapy consultant for chest physiotherapy was recruited, which was a need of the hour for the COVID patients.
