Rajvithee, the nearest hospital to Rajprasong site, has prepared ambulances, blood and beds as the government's deadline for the red shirts protesters to end their rally passes, Dr Rewat Wisarutvej, director general of Medical Services Department said.
Other hospitals are now on standby and prepare altogether 190 beds, 190 units of blood in case violence happens.
"For Rajvithee Hospital which is the nearest hospital to Rajprasong and Rajprarop area, 40 ambulances are on standby. All people of all sides could trust our medical personnel as they would work with etiquette in mind, the doctor said.
He said that he asked medical personnel to work with carefulness. Soldiers are assigned to move injured people from the rally site to the spots which would be outside the rally site.
The government had issued a deadline for protesters at Rajprasong to leave the site before 3pm. However when the deadline passed, the government gave the protesters more time to decide.
