HOPE & ASIA PETROLEUM RENEW THE CONTRACT OF ITS MHU PROJECT

Mobile health clinics serve an important role in the health care system, providing care to some of the most vulnerable populations. Mobile health care delivery is an innovative model of health services delivery that provides a wide variety of services to vulnerable populations. Mobile clinics can improve access by serving as a vital link between the community and clinical facilities.

The goal of the Mobile Health Units is to strengthen communities to combat these challenges by providing free medical examinations, medication, and care. Medical practitioners are also raising awareness on good hygiene to lower the risk of disease in communities.

Villages in the outskirts of Karachi and interior Sindh are the prime example of such rural areas. These villages face serious health challenges with infectious diseases such as gastrointestinal disorder, pulmonary tuberculosis, malaria and diarrhea being very common. Moreover, malnutrition of children is another alarming problem. Health facilities for the rural poor in the present state are in total disarray.

HOPE - A Health NGO in Pakistan has been active in Pakistan since 1997, under the dynamic leadership of Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla-Child Specialist in Karachi. It strives to improve the health and educational disparity of the deprived community in the country.

On Friday 26^th July 2024, the founder of HOPE, Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla, presided over a signing ceremony for renewal of HOPE's Mobile Health Unit (MHU) contract with Asia Petroleum. HOPE has been a partner with Asia Petroleum for 14 years. 

HOPE operates two Mobile Health Units which serves 30 villages on the outskirts of Karachi.  Doctors from Karachi staff these Mobile Health on a rotational basis.  The doctors set up “clinics” in the houses of community volunteers and treat the underserved population, mainly women and children.  Medicines and treatments are provided free of charge to over 85,000 patients per year.

HOPE - An NGO in Pakistan strives to improve the disastrous health care crisis all over Pakistan. The setting up of these MHUs helps move towards that goal, 26 villages at a time. HOPE stresses very strongly that only setting up of treatment facilities will not solve the problem. Preventive healthcare methods and practices need to be adopted by both the rural and urban population in order for a healthy society to develop within the country.
