Rural Infrastructure & Human Resource Development Organization (RIHRDO) Health Care Center – Peshawar took initiative in this year i.e., 2014 and kept on focusing to serve the humanity with dedication and determination. Though our resources are very limited as it is a self-support organization but we try our level best to facilitate maximum patients by providing them consultation, medication, ultrasound and free camps.
All these services are based on as low as possible rates and even in most of deserving and needy cases; we provide them either free treatment or charge them on discounted or very nominal rates. Our devoted staff members are available 24/7 for patients’ services and take care of their utmost satisfaction by follow up calls or visits.
Free Camps:
We organized Free Camps every 3 month for people around our location but it was observed that people participated in these camps from far areas as well. These camps proved beneficial in different senses; not only treated free but numbers of cases were timely referred to different hospitals for further treatment which resulted them securing from major issues in the near future or future.
We tried to involve different specialists for such free camps so that people in this area could have maximum awareness about the most common problems being faced in our daily routine lives.
General Awareness Activities
Due to certain cultural barriers, different issues need to be briefed or highlighted for community which may help people to come out of such restrictions which are human-made barriers.
So keeping the same in view, RIHRDO Health Care Center arranged General Awareness Sessions during the year 2014 and number of people showed their deep interest and attended such gathering with much importance. The details about such activities are as under;
- Importance of Education for Girls
Our culture in Pakistan is man dominated culture, ultimately boys in a family; is considered the best than a girl. In some areas particularly in K. P. K. or interior Sindh or Baluchistan, girls are not supposed to be sent for schooling. We arranged such awareness sessions for the head of the families to brief them about the equal importance for the both genders, both got equal rights for education and grooming in such a competitive life for a better and secure life. We do appreciate the participants for their interest, agreeing with the logics and showed desire to send their girls for schooling.
- Fight against Polio
Unfortunately, numbers of Polio Cases have been discovered during the year 2104 and still it has been continuously increasing almost every month and the worst part of the story is that our Province K. P. K. got the majority cases discovered. Though it was very risky to arrange such awareness session but still we arranged, its precautionary measures (in form of vaccination) and the side effect of the dark side of not availing its vaccination. People participated, realized the facts and admired the efforts of the foundation in such a dangerous situation being seen or observed every day around us against Polio.
Though Rural Infrastructure & Human Resource Development Organization (RIHRDO) got very limited resources but still we try our level best for the uplift of the community.
