Challenge
Established in 18499, Jhelum is counted among the oldest districts of Punjab. Despite being one of the biggest and oldest districts of the province, Jhelum is unable to address the healthcare problems of its underprivileged residents. Many patients continue to suffer due to a lack of access to healthcare facilities or because they are unable to pay for their treatments due to poverty. A larger number of the local hospitals are often overburdened. Hundreds of patients suffering from hypertension, allergies, flu, gastric problems, cough, weakness, fever, pain, and diabetes need urgent support.
