MHPPS in Hospital MIri: Workbooks, Hotline,
Lounge
We have produced COVID-19 workbooks (image above) to be distributed to patients,
but it turns out that even healthcare workers assigned to COVID-19 wards ended up
liking the workbooks as well. This is just not to fill in time, but the books have mental
health tips and information we know regarding COVID-19 at that time. These books
are disposable, and would be thrown away after patients have used them in the wards.
WE HAVE TWO HOTLINE numbers where people can message or call to obtain
support. We have also prepared two lounges at Hospital Miri, the lounges are
characterized according to its risks. Infection control protocols are implemented.
Many people do not have the time to rest during the pandemic and the availability of
these lounges have proven to be useful.
