Let’s Provide Free Healthcare to the Needy in Kasur
Transparent Hands is going to organize a free medical camp and preventive healthcare session in Kasur. We aim to extend essential medical services to underprivileged communities in the area. Kasur, like many other cities in Pakistan, faces challenges that make it difficult for many of its residents to access even basic healthcare. Through this initiative, we aim to bridge the gap and provide life-changing healthcare to needy patients.
Challenges in Kasur
In Kasur’s low-income neighborhoods, residents often struggle with inadequate healthcare facilities, poor sanitation, and a lack of awareness about preventive health practices. These challenges along with high medical costs leave many health issues unaddressed.
Kasur has seen an increase in diseases such as malaria, acute respiratory infections, scabies, and water-borne diseases. Many people are forced to choose between paying for medical treatment or fulfilling their basic needs, resulting in diminished quality of life.
Our Solution
To tackle these challenges, Transparent Hands is organizing a free medical camp that will provide medical consultations, check-ups, diagnostic tests, and medicines to underprivileged patients. Our dedicated team of qualified doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and volunteers will ensure that every patient receives the care they deserve. This camp will be an opportunity to reach out to the underserved population of Kasur and improve their health and well-being.
The medical services will include:
· General Medical Check-Ups
· Gynecology Check-Ups
· Blood Pressure checkups
· Hepatitis B & C Screenings
· Ultrasound Scans
· Uric Acid Testing
· Cholesterol Tests
· Blood Sugar Testing (BSR)
· Preventive Healthcare Session
· Registration for Deserving Surgical/Medical Procedures
Preventive Healthcare Session
Our medical experts will also hold a preventive healthcare session, which will focus on one of the most common health issues in Kasur. The session will provide individuals with crucial knowledge and practical tips to protect themselves from common diseases and lead healthier lives.
