Google Gol Gappa
My search bar majorly is Google, so I did not miss the Google Doodle the whole day, but clicked on play the Pani Puri Game sometime back. And it was fun!
Thank you Google…for bringing back some yummy Pani Puri and some childhood gaming memories…
Yeah, those scores aren’t great; took sometime to get the hang of the game, but it was fun playing it.
And for those who haven’t tried…I mean the Game and Gol Gappe…well, enjoy some!
Until next, it’s Pani Puri time!

Lockdown Countdown: Medical Training
As a Registered Medical Practitioner (RMP), for some specialties, it was mandatory to take training, test and get certified to fight the COVID-19 pandemic.
I am an AYUSH Practitioner, Homoeopathic Medicine being my speciality. And as per Maharashtra Council of Homoeopathy (MCH), the test and to express the willingness to serve when the need arise (in Mumbai as per the notice) were a must.
- For those Homoeopaths (RMP) who would want to keep themselves updated on the notices, please visit: https://mchmumbai.org/
- For Homoeopaths (RMP) training, please visit: https://mchmumbai.org/covid19/c19home.aspx (You can take the exam once you have gone through the training material. I am not sure of the last date of training or exam though.)
- For those Homoeopaths (RMP), who want to serve, please visit: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScK4czUFL8nfHW4fawzP6hVq9dFAiW_SWIW-yj2LwK_wKHQaA/viewform
A few more website links that were circulated in the medical groups and those that are official with correct information are as mentioned below. The training material is good. Healthcare professionals or those who would want to be a voluntary participant – COVID Warriors, it is essential to be trained before you serve the patients. This is important because Self-Care is a priority if you want to care for others. No point falling ill yourself. That way you are not helping yourself or people around you.
Training Topics include:
- Basics in/for COVID Care
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) donning and doffing methods (Personal Safety)
- Hand Hygiene
- Social Distancing
- Sample Collection, Packaging and Transport (Diagnostics)
- Guidelines for Isolation and Quarantine Facility
- Infection Control
- Nursing Care
- Care during Pregnancy
- Participation Details
- Guidelines Issued

A Decade Of Distinction
Not very long ago, I was a part of the Corporate Communication Team at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital (KDAH)–a beautiful learning experience. And today, it has been ten years since its birth in the year 2009. A brand close to my heart, an institution that sets benchmark in the Indian healthcare industry, a hospital that is the biggest in the western suburbs of Mumbai–yes, KDAH is indeed a space where every life matters.
Facebook Live on KDAH decade of distinction was nostalgic! Worth listening to the KDAH journey from KDAH Chairperson, Tina Ambani, Reliance Group Chairman, Anil Ambani, and none other than, Mrs. Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani herself.
Inspiring words, Great work…Congratulations Anil Sir, Tina Ma’am, Mrs K Ambani, KN Sir, Dr. Ram, Dr. Tushar, Dr. Shetty, Dr. Mihir and KDAH team…glad I was a small part in the first ten years of KDAH Distinction! 😊😊😊
