Healthcare and Well being
A pandemic, tragedy or accident negatively impacts people, households, and livelihoods in more ways than one. The most important and critical impact is on health and bodily harm which needs immediate and quality care for restoration and protection of life.
Under our charter of services, healthcare and wellbeing is the primary pillar of support that focuses on ensuring lives are saved, and timely medical care, support and counselling is provided to those impacted and their loved ones.
Our tireless and selfless volunteers work with hospitals, caregivers, counsellors, and other social service organizations that are all working towards helping people recover and return to normalcy after a tragic event or illness.
The following are the areas we can help with
Hospitalization help: Getting admission to a hospital in cases of emergencies during a pandemic
Consultancy / Counselling: If you are not sure what to do, we can connect you with a medical professional who can guide you on the next steps based on your diagnosis and/or provide with most medical counselling for recovery and rehabilitation.
Medical Expenses Assistance: If you are not able to afford large medical bills or expensive treatments, we will find you the most affordable option and on needs basis we will work with donors and other social service organizations.
