THE medical team assigned at the Temburong District's 'get-together' ceremony with His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam recorded a total of seven cases of casualties, which mainly involved students.

Speaking to The Brunei Times, Senior Nurse Hj Helmi Hj Nayan, who led and monitored the 21 member team, said he was confident that his team would be able to handle any situation that might arised, since he had sufficient number of staff and equipment. His only main concern was the weather instability.

"Only the weather can be our problem as it is the probable cause for a heatstroke," he said. Dividing the medical stations into three main camps, Hj Helmi elaborated each of their specialised functions where one would cater to the VIP guest, another one was for the performers and one for the public.

The seven cases that needed attention yesterday involved mainly students who suffered dizziness,stomachache and one experienced fatigue. There was also two cases of students stung by bees and a student suffered a broken arm from a fall.

"In most cases, the students suffered dizziness or weak because they don't eat the food which were given to them," said Hj Helmi.

"Sometimes they are not used to the food or just don't like it so they don't eat it hence the result."

A total of 14 schools participated in yesterday's event where students came to either to wave the mini national flags or doing the field performance during His Majesty's visit to the Temburong District at the Civic Centre area in Bangar Town.

The police play no lesser role in upholding the law, maintaining peace and securing the prosperity of the nation. They form the backbone of law and order in the country.


The contribution and importance of the Fire and Rescue Services is also significant as they also put their lives on the line in rescuing people and saving properties.


The voluntary uniformed personnel, such as the Red Crescent, Scouts and even uniformed cadets play an important role in community affairs and development.


These associations play an important role in moulding the youths to be responsible and caring individuals with good character and in times of need, these associations always lend a helping hand to society.

Strong teams of medics to the rescue

Nurses attend to students. - BAHYIAH BAKIR


Twenty-two people collapsed from heat exhaustion during the first meet-and-greet session with His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam yesterday morning, held in conjunction with the monarch's 65th birthday celebrations at Padang Bandaran Kuala Belait.


Fortunately, they were all in good hands thanks to the readily available teams of medical personnel who had been deployed at the scene to ensure the safety and well-being of the public.


Eighteen medical teams from Suri Seri Begawan Hospital and Panaga Hospital comprising doctors, nurses, support staff and paramedics strolled the fields making sure the strong crowd of VIPs, students and other well-wishers were in good shape.


Red Crescent Society volunteers were also on hand to assist medics monitoring the thousands-strong crowd.


According to one of the medical teams, the affected were mainly those struck by heat exhaustion or dehydration, who were then brought to one of the five makeshift first-aid stations strategically located at the venue. No admission cases were recorded.


According to a Suri Seri Begawan Hospital personnel, most people suffered hypoglyceamia (low-blood sugar) because they had neglected breakfast and had not properly hydrated themselves throughout the morning.


Medical officers advise those who will attend future meet-and-greet sessions to get a good night's rest, but most importantly, to have breakfast and bring bottled water, especially for the flag-waving students.
