Challenges
In Sargodha, respiratory infections like pneumonia and bronchitis are widespread, driven by poor air quality and dense living conditions. Additionally, the area sees a rise in waterborne illnesses, including diarrhea and typhoid, due to limited clean water and poor sanitation. Malnutrition is notably affecting children and pregnant women, causing growth and developmental challenges. Furthermore, non-communicable diseases such as diabetes and heart conditions are on the rise, worsened by scarce healthcare resources and low health awareness.
Our Solution
Transparent Hands is organizing a free medical camp and preventive healthcare session in Sargodha to aid the community’s most vulnerable individuals. Our experienced doctors will provide free medical consultations, dispense essential medications, and conduct a range of diagnostic tests at no cost.
We will oversee the registration of attendees and coordinate the referral process for patients in need of more specialized medical treatments or surgeries to hospitals on our panel. We warmly invite your generous donations to make a meaningful impact, offering hope and relief to the inhabitants of Sargodha. Let’s come together in this noble mission to enhance healthcare access and support those in critical need.
Transparent Hands held a free medical camp and preventive healthcare session on Circular Road in Sahiwal, Sargodha to make quality healthcare available to impoverished patients on May 19, 2024.
