A STITCH in time can save nine - or perhaps more. That's the saying the founder of Home Nursing Providers Sdn Bhd, Yakob Abdul Rahman Wilhelm Scholer, always uses to describe how home nursing can help add days to a life.
The well known gure in the local auxillary health scene feels that it's time Malaysians possess first-hand knowledge of the subject with the launch of his book, Guide to Home Nursing.
"The book provides nurses, healthcare providers and caregivers with an idea of how to help patients who are being looked after in a home setting," he said.
Despite many wishing to care for their loved ones at home, Yakob expressed his concerns that they aren't aware of the proper techniques.
"The right techniques should be brought forward and explained," said the man who initiated Malaysia's first AIDS Awareness Committee, which developed into the present Malaysian Aids Council.
While medical literature is expensive, Yakob said: The book is at RM32 only available in MPH and POPULAR book stores in the country. In the international market, the books will be sold around US$29.50 each (RM72) or more. I feel that the Malaysian community should have it at a lower price."
