Adults need vaccines as well ! Don't wait, Protect your family today !

As an adult, you are busy with life and have many responsibilities — but don’t forget to take care of yourself !
Today, everyone among-st adults is physically and mentally stressed out to cope with the ever increasing competition and expectations. Ever increasing working hours, improper meals at irregular times, coffee and junk food habits, congested work places, unhealthy lifestyles, lack of exercise and fresh air, everything is virtually pushing adults to decreased immunity. This makes adults vulnerable to the disease. Ludhiana Hospital Bathinda Provides Adult vaccination.

Also protection from some childhood vaccines can wear-off over time. Adults, thus become at risk for vaccine-preventable diseases due to their age, job, lifestyle, or health conditions. Every year, thousands of adults become seriously ill and are hospitalized because of diseases that vaccines can prevent. These diseases could turn fatal in many adults (>25% of deaths in adults is due to infectious diseases).

Old age again brings threat to get infections due to waning immunity in grand parents. This again could put the entire family into distress to handle them in illness. Moreover, they can spread the serious diseases in the family itself, children as well as adults due to their poor health.

Vaccines are recommended for adults on the basis of age, prior vaccinations, health conditions like asthma, diabetes,renal disease, liver disease etc, lifestyle, occupation, and travel. Adult vaccination has significant role in curbing morbidity, mortality, and disability among adults  due to infectious diseases such as tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, human papilloma virus (HPV) causing cervical cancer in women, Japanese encephalitis, measles, mumps, rubella, meningococcus, pneumococcus, typhoid, flu ( including swine flu), and chickenpox.

The need for vaccines does not go away with growing age. Vaccination is recommended throughout life to prevent infectious diseases and their complications.

Always remember, Vaccination is not just for children!!!

Protect your child, family members, parents, and yourself by being up-to-date on vaccinations! This shall reduced morbidity (illness), hospital admissions, health costs, mortality (deaths) and perhaps most importantly leading to improved quality of life .

 "Pain now, Gain later
   Pay now, Save later
   Decide now for Health later!"

Talk to your doctor about the vaccinations you & your family might need to protect your health for life!

Know About Your Baby’s Emotions

First smiles are only the start of the amazing emotions your baby will develop and show during the first year. As early as 3 months, they may be ‘reading’ expressions and storing the information in their growing memory bank. These stored experiences will help them manage and control their own emotions as they grow. It all begins with that one little smile… At 3 months your baby may enjoy socialising with you and the other immediate members of the family. They smile easily and may have a keen interest in other human faces. Babies   learn about others’ emotions and expressions   when they can watch, listen and participate in social interactions. You can also expect to hear the first of the many giggles during this time. The best way to make your baby laugh is by making funny little ‘burrr’ sounds, pecking them on the cheek or by tickling their stomach. The reactions you get will have a significant influence on how your baby reacts to various situatio...

Childhood Vaccines, Why Your Child Needs Them !

What is a vaccine? When germs enter the body, the immune system recognizes them as foreign substances (antigens). The immune system produces the right antibodies to fight the antigens. Vaccines contain weakened versions of a virus or versions that look like a virus (called antigens).
