Transparent Hands has been bridging the gaps in Pakistan’s healthcare sector by organizing free healthcare camps. This initiative provides invaluable medical services to underserved areas like Utror. Numerous patients receive free medical services from our camps annually. We will provide multiple healthcare services, ranging from free medical consultations to medicines and diagnostic tests, at our medical camp in Utror, KPK.

Challenges:

Utror, a scenic valley in Kalam, is marked by its breathtaking beauty, but behind the picturesque views lie serious healthcare challenges. The area’s remote location and insufficient medical infrastructure make it difficult for residents to receive timely and adequate medical care. The lack of healthcare facilities and trained professionals leaves the local population, particularly women and children, vulnerable to preventable illnesses and untreated conditions. The community faces numerous health issues, including respiratory infections, skin diseases, and malnutrition. Many children in the region suffer from stunted growth, while others face the threat of diseases like diarrhea and vector-borne illnesses.

Solution:

To tackle these challenges, Transparent Hands is organizing a free medical camp and preventive healthcare session in Utror. Our dedicated medical team will offer the following comprehensive free health facilities to the underprivileged community.

· Eye Glasses
· Eye Check-Ups
· Gynecology Check-Ups
· Ultrasound Scans
· General Check-Ups
· Lab Tests including:
– Hepatitis B & C Screenings
– Uric Acid Tests
– Cholesterol Tests
– BSR (Blood Sugar) Tests
– Blood Pressure Monitoring
· Preventive Healthcare Session
· Deserving Surgical/Medical procedure cases will be registered

Preventive Healthcare Session:

At our upcoming free medical camp in Utror, we will also conduct a preventive healthcare session. It will help the underprivileged community to learn about disease prevention and the importance of regular medical check-ups. Our skilled medical team will empower individuals to take charge of their health and make informed decisions about themselves and their families.
