Dhanusha, Mahottari, Sarlahi, Rautahat in Madhesh along with Sindhuli and Ramechhap also come to Bardibas for snakebite treatment. Arrangements have been made for serious patients who come to the center to be placed on ventilators in a private hospital in Bardibas.
'When there is no knowledge of what to do/not do after a snake bite, there is a problem of burning, tearing, tying with ropes or bicycle tubes, applying turmeric, going to Dhamizhankri and delaying treatment,' said Chakra Bahadur Thokar, another technician and healer.
Krishna Prasad Devakota, chairman of the board of directors, said that they are going to build a facility with ventilators for snakebite patients.
