There was a real emergency at Bangkok Hospital Pattaya on Thursday morning when a fire was discovered near the Emergency Room. The fire alarms went off and all patients being treated in Emergency and major equipment were immediately evacuated as the fire brigade and Sawang Boriboon Rescue Team were called for assistance. As 5 fire trucks arrived, thick black smoke was seen billowing near the building’s electricity control room about 30 meters from the Emergency Room. Thankfully, the firefighters with the help of medical staff had the blaze under control within minutes. The primary assumption was that it started from a short circuit. Later that afternoon, the Director of the hospital, Dr. Pichit Gangwoengit announced that even though the hospital has a high standard of safety the fire probably began from a burnt out light bulb, near the control room, which had overheated after been left on for a long time. The director also thanked all concerned, including medical staff, for conducting their duties professionally during the incident, because they all regularly take part in fire drills at the hospital to be ready in case of emergencies.
