We held our first free medical camp in Madhu Khalas, Dina, on the 3rd February 2012, utilising our fleet of ambulances. All the Doctor’s, Nurses and local volunteers provided their services free of charge to over 370 people that were treated. Food was also provided to the patients that attended the camp
Objectives for the Free Medical Camp
- Provide medical service and consultation to the villagers at their doorstep
- Provide quality medicines, vitamins, antibiotics free of charge
- Increase awareness of basic hygiene and preventative health care;
- Determine the percentage of most common diseases among the villagers and assess their most pressing medical needs
The volunteer Doctor’s, Nurse’s and organizers used the camp as an opportunity to raise awareness on basic medical issues, hygienic and unhygienic behaviors, and preventative health care. The villagers responded positively to the discussions and expressed their appreciation that an effort was being made to bring attention to such issues. Overall, the medical camps ran smoothly and were deemed a success by all involved. MW Trust is grateful to all the Doctor’s, Nurse’s and local volunteers who did an excellent job
