Hinduja Hospital

Being in Mahim West at Hinduja Hospital puts us right in a very busy corner of the world. It is a bit different from the other side of the tracks. The streets here have a very specific feel to them. We have been part of this neighborhood for a long time now. People around here know the building well. It is not about being the most polished place; it is about being functional and open. We spend our hours making sure the place is clean and the lights are on. There is a lot of coordination involved that people never see. We do not talk in mission statements. Instead we talk about who is handling the next intake or if the records are sorted. It is messy sometimes and it is always busy. That is the reality of a big hospital in a place like Mahim West. You see the same faces at the tea stall outside every morning. We share stories about the commute or the heat. When it pours the entrance gets crowded with people drying their umbrellas. We just keep moving. The floors need mopping and the phones keep ringing all day long. It is a constant cycle. We take pride in just getting through a tough day without any major hiccups. It is a practical life we lead here. No gloss or frills. We have learned to deal with the humidity and the crowds just like everyone else.
