Join Hands With Us to Tackle Diseases in Kasur

Transparent Hands is dedicated to its mission to make healthcare accessible to all deserving patients. This time, we are going to arrange a free medical camp to provide low-income communities of Dhing Shah, Kasur, with essential healthcare services. Due to financial constraints and inadequate medical services, Kasur’s residents experience many avoidable diseases. Through this camp, we will bring quality healthcare services to Kasur, offering much-needed medical support.

Challenges:

In Kasur, healthcare access is limited especially for low-income families. High costs of healthcare at private hospitals make it difficult for residents to receive routine check-ups or treat illnesses early. This situation has led to cases of many preventable illnesses and untreated health conditions, particularly among the elderly, women, and children.

The residents of Kasur are facing health issues due to poor water sources and air quality. Various communicable and gastrointestinal diseases are also prevalent in the area.

Solution:

To positively impact the lives of numerous needy individuals in Kasur, we aim to uplift them by providing them with quality healthcare services. This camp will provide free medical check-ups, lab tests, treatments, and medications to low-income patients who otherwise lack access to healthcare services, ensuring they receive necessary medical attention. At the free medical camp in Kasur, our qualified team of doctors, nurses, pharmacists, lab technicians, and volunteers will provide the following medical services.

· General Check-Ups
· Gynecology Check-Ups
· Blood Pressure Check-Ups
· Hepatitis B & C Screenings

Preventive Healthcare Session:

To support the long-term wellness of underprivileged communities of Kasur, this camp will also include a preventive healthcare session. This session will emphasize the management of one of the common health concerns in Kasur.

Through hosting this medical camp and holding a preventive healthcare session, the quality of life of numerous needy individuals will be improved.
