Life Cares Hospital

The hospital sits right on Thittamangalam Road in Vattiyoorkavu. It is a busy spot, especially in the mornings when everyone is heading to work. We spend a lot of time just keeping things moving. The building itself is part of the Coolhomes area, so it’s easy to find once you get close to the junction. Inside, things are usually pretty steady. There is always someone at the front desk checking files or talking on the phone. The waiting chairs have seen better days but they do the job. We have different floors for different things, and the stairs get a lot of use. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to switch over to the generator, which makes a bit of a hum in the background. Most people who come here are from around Vattiyoorkavu, so we see a lot of familiar faces. The nurses are usually rushing between rooms with clipboards. It gets a bit hot in the afternoons, so the fans are always going. We don't have fancy decorations on the walls, just the usual posters about health and some notices. There is a small space where staff takes their tea breaks, usually talking about local news or the traffic on the way in. It is just a regular place where people come when they aren’t feeling well. We try to keep the floors clean and the medicine cabinet stocked. It is not a quiet library, that is for sure.
