having been exposed to public hospitals, i have seen first hand the needs of our hospitals. not all hospitals get the funding that they need and most of them lack the equipments that they need to be able to provide treatment or care to patients.
the hospital where my uncle works for in the states recently sold the defibrillators that they have been using for less than 2 years at a very low price since it was hospital protocol to change equipments every 18 months. what my uncle did was to buy 18 defibrillators and sent them to a hospital in bacolod as his donation. instead of going on a trip for his birthday, he spent the money buying the equipment. the equipment is still in tip top condition and still looks brand new. the hospital director who is a best friend of my uncle was very happy as they really needed the equipment.
my uncle says he may have spent his birthday without going on a trip or without a party but the money he used to buy the machine was money well spent. not only was it money well spent but it surely is to be used to save lives.
