An electrocardiogram is also available. 

Medical appliance/apparatus:

Crutches, canes and wheelchairs can be borrowed from the AIT Medical Center.  A refundable deposit will be required.  The nurse on duty can be contacted for borrowing these appliances/apparatus.

Student’s Insurance:

Those insured under the Generali Medical Insurance should present their Generali Card before consulting with the doctor for the diagnosis of any illness. Any medical expenses incurred will be charged to the Generali Insurance.  If a doctor is not consulted, students will be required to pay in cash.

Medical Emergencies:

Emergency medical care is available at the AIT Medical Center at all times. In case of a medical emergency, please call 02-524-5555, the Nurse will call the guard to take her to the patient’s location using the golf cart. If the patient needs to be taken to the hospital, the Nurse will call the ambulance.

The AIT Medical Center’s emergency care service is not a hospital emergency room.  Emergency illness conditions such as suspected heart attack, stroke or poisoning require immediate treatment at the nearest hospital emergency room.  If anyone is too ill to come to the Medical Center or to go to a hospital without assistance, please call 02-524-5555 or 1669 directly for Emergency Medical Service (provided by the Ministry of Public Health, Thailand).

Night-Shift Nurse:

A night-shift nurse, who is on duty from 19:30 to 07:30 hours is reserved for medical emergencies.  For safety and security reasons, the door of the Medical Center is locked from 22:00 to 07:30 hours.  In medical emergency cases or if any medical emergency assistance is required, the nurse on duty can be contacted at 02-524-5555.
