Challenges

Gujar Khan is a town located in the Rawalpindi District of the Punjab province in Pakistan and situated about 55 kilometers southeast of Islamabad. The city grapples with several health challenges such as limited healthcare infrastructure and inadequate facilities. This scarcity of facilities hampers timely healthcare delivery, particularly in remote areas. Moreover, communicable diseases such as diarrhea, typhoid, and hepatitis are prevalent due to insufficient sanitation and clean water supply. The lack of proper waste management and overcrowded living conditions exacerbates the spread of infections. Addressing these health challenges requires free medical camps to provide immediate healthcare services, diagnostic facilities, treatment, and health education.

Solution

Transparent Hands plans to arrange a free medical camp and preventive healthcare session to address the health challenges. Our camp will play a crucial role in providing immediate healthcare services to the underserved population of Gujar Khan. The primary objective of our camp is to provide medical assistance, diagnosis, and treatment to individuals who lack access to regular healthcare facilities. Our camp will also offer a range of services, including general medical check-ups, diagnostic tests, immunizations, and the distribution of essential medicines. One of our doctors at the medical camp will also focus on raising awareness about preventive measures, hygiene practices, and the importance of nutrition to combat malnutrition and reduce the risk of communicable diseases. By bringing healthcare services directly to the community, our medical camp will overcome the barriers of distance and accessibility. Patients who require surgeries or other medical treatments will be registered with Transparent Hands and will be referred to one of the panel hospitals. By making a charitable donation to this noble cause, you have the opportunity to positively impact the lives of numerous deserving patients residing in this region.

Transparent Hands recently hosted a free medical camp and preventive healthcare session at Haq Trust Medical Center, Gujar Khan, on June 17, 2023. The medical camp aimed to bring quality healthcare to impoverished patients.

Free Consultations, Medicines, and Diagnostic Tests

During the camp, a total of 176 deserving patients were provided with free consultations by expert doctors. In addition to the consultations, various essential medical services were also offered at no cost, including medicines, diabetes tests, uric acid tests, hepatitis B and C screenings, LFTs (Liver Function Tests), RFTs (Renal Function Tests), Ultrasound/cholesterol tests, and blood pressure check-ups.

Diseases and Treatments

Most of the patients who sought consultation were suffering from fever, flu, cough, migraine, vomiting, seasonal allergies, eye infection, chest infection, diarrhea, abdominal pain, cholesterol, uric acid, urine infection, kidney pain, anemia, and skin fungus. Free medicines were given to a large number of deserving patients. Two surgical cases were registered. A total of 152 screening tests were also conducted.

Preventive Healthcare Session on Hypertension

During the free medical camp, an expert doctor conducted a preventive healthcare session for the attendees. The focus of the session was on diabetes prevention and management. The doctor discussed the importance of a healthy lifestyle, including exercise, a balanced diet, and maintaining weight.

Impact

The impact of the free medical camp in Gujar Khan was truly transformative for 176 deserving patients and their families. It not only provided crucial healthcare services but also brought hope and relief to those in need. It provided impoverished patients with access to quality healthcare, including free consultations and essential medical services. The preventive healthcare session at the camp provided attendees with information on managing hypertension and promoting a healthy lifestyle. The camp positively influenced the community's healthcare outcomes and provided individuals with the tools to take control of their health by raising awareness and providing education.

The success of the camp was made possible by the unwavering support of thousands of donors who share Transparent Hands' mission to extend quality healthcare to impoverished, remote, and rural areas across the country
