Pindapata

Best wishes for 2018. On this raining morning friends, devotees, brothers & sisters in the dhamma assembled in the Wat Ananda Metyarama. Charity starts on the first day of the new year. The thought moment of giving voluntarily comes to mind right on the first morning of the new year. This cultivates community spirit. After the marathon midnight chanting, we rejoice by offering alms to the sangha order members. We usher the new year chanting amidst fireworks display booming at esplanade. To purify ones mind, do good avoid evil.

Hoist a heavy person

Ricky is glad to share this short video. It shows an electro-mechanical hoist. This helps nursing healthcare service provider. Some patients are very heavy weight. This hoist helps to elevate the heavy patient from bed to wheelchair and vice versa. Many nurses find it a burden and often sprain their wrist in their course of lifting the patient. By acquiring this bedside aid, many occupational injury can be prevented. It gives nurses a sigh of relief and improve productivity. Both patient and care giver stand to benefit from using hoist. Cheers! what an innovative idea for service providers.
