Upcoming Medical Camp, Allama Iqbal Town, Lahore
Overview:
Transparent Hands plans to collaborate with Life hospital in organizing a free medical camp at Allama Iqbal Town, Lahore. In this medical camp, our team of expert physicians will provide the following health facilities to deserving patients:
- Free consultation and provision of medicines
- Free treatment of medical and surgical cases
- Free BSR and Blood Pressure tests
- Free ophthalmological consultation
Challenges:
In the past three years, Lahore has been shuffling between the top two ranks of the world’s most polluted cities. The smog epidemic has added a new chapter of ophthalmological and respiratory diseases to the citizens’ lives. Poor air quality results in numerous adverse effects on the general health and wellbeing of the residents, especially affecting those living in remote areas or slums.
Exposure to bad air quality initially causes short-term illnesses such as eye, nose, and throat infections. Over time, it has the potential of leading to ophthalmological complications including acute Uveitis, numerous cardiorespiratory issues, and a variety of cancers. Presently, due to COVID-19, the events have taken a grimer turn by leaving the public health sector burdened to its maximum capacity. Due to saturation of patients at public hospitals, and limited health care facilities most diseases are going unnoticed and therefore remain untreated. Few diseases mentioned above have the potential of eventually worsening over time and may even prove to be fatal.
Our Solution:
Transparent Hands will organize a one-day medical camp at Allama Iqbal Town, Lahore, to provide free consultation and medicines to the affectees. Patients who require undergoing surgeries will be provided free medical treatment at Life hospital in collaboration with Transparent Hands. Team Transparent Hands is determined to bring quality healthcare facilities to the underprivileged residents of Allama Iqbal Town, Lahore.
Donate for our medical camp in Allama Iqbal Town, Lahore, and help hundreds of individuals in acquiring a healthier life.
Transparent Hands organized and managed a two-day free medical camp at the Govt. Girls Secondary High School Umar Block, Allama Iqbal Town, Lahore. This camp was organized and managed by Transparent Hands in association with Life Hospital. Provincial Minister of Punjab for Housing and Development and Public Health Engineering, Mian Mehmood ur Rasheed also graced us with his presence at the Free Medical Camp. The purpose of setting up this camp was to cater to the underprivileged people residing in the said locality. Our camp team consisted of twenty-one members including two supervisors, eight doctors (three male and five female), two pharmacists, one lab technician, one female nurse, two photographers, and five crew workers.
In total, 157 patients turned up in the camp. All COVID SOPs were followed by the camp team. Patients and all other attendees were encouraged to wear face masks and use hand sanitisers. Free Eye check-up along with testing facilities for Hepatitis B and C, blood sugar level, blood pressure, and facility of free ultrasound was provided to the patients. The facility of getting free eyeglasses made was also available so numerous patients got their eyeglasses made.
The majority of the cases examined by the doctors consisted of patients suffering from eye diseases, stomach issues, joints and muscular pains, and various types of allergies. Free, appropriate medication was provided to such patients. Four surgical cases and three Hepatitis cases were found in this camp. All of the said patients have been registered with us for treatment. Further medical care shall be provided to them at our relevant panel hospitals in Lahore.
Team Transparent Hands, extends gratitude to Hon’ble Mian Mehmood ur Rasheed for gracing us with his presence, to all the honorable donors, and to Life Hospital. In the future, we look forward to organizing such camps where we can be of service to the underprivileged patients in Pakistan and facilitate them with health care as we believe health care to be a primary, and basic right of all human beings.
