Re: Hua Hin hospital special medical clinic

My eldest granddaughter was a nurse at BH, but left for HHH because she could make more money, for less, and more sociable hours. Yes, the basic pay is better at BH, but there are other perks working at HHH that make it preferable.

Re: One dead as airplane makes an emergency landing in Suvarnabhumi

I don't see the problem in remaining buckled up. It doesn't cause any discomfort, does it? Some people are little more than naughty kids, and have to ignore good advice because they can. And then there are the complete idiots that unbuckle the belt, and even stand up, as soon as the aircraft touches...

Hua Hin Speed Cameras

What is also interesting is that this is a different camera location than before. My first two tickets had photos of the front of my car taken from a height above the car. Today's photos indicate that the camera is close to the ground as the angle is aiming high into the front of my car. Also it is...

Re: Hua Hin hospital special medical clinic

I can't disagree with either the current men's or ladies wards, and I hope I'm right that they have a plan to improve the situation. One story during Covid, I had to rush my wife to hospital after the curfew had started - that was an experience in itself, but no traffic. She was settled into bed, ho...

Re: Hua Hin hospital special medical clinic

I don't say HHH is perfect, and part of the remaining areas for upgrading and the main Men and Ladies wards - they are horrible. However, I am confident, with everything else that has been going on at the hospital, so long as the money doesn't run out, then they will follow shortly. Nursing care, ye...

Re: Hua Hin hospital special medical clinic

Which 'new' building do you mean? They've built 4 or 5 new buildings while I've lived here together with a few satellite buildings - so vast is the recent development.

My first there was when my 18 y.o. granddaughter was born. Would that have been the building, or was there something before that?

Re: Hua Hin hospital special medical clinic

My personal opinion: 1. SMC still offers good service, but the frequency of their opening is gradually becoming less and less. 2. The after hours clinic is an excellent resource, and bridges many gaps left by the reducing SMC. 3. Generally, HHH is undergoing a massive upgrade. Improved outpatient fa...

Yes, I've seen monitor lizards running up trees. I can't see a concrete post providing much of a challenge.

Re: Hua Hin hospital special medical clinic

Not really, but I guess if they're sending you to the after hours clinic, you are going late afternoon. I usually visit the SMC on a morning. I know they don't open every evening anymore. Having said that, I used the after hours clinic quite a lot after my accident 3 months back, and I found them to...
