Past Medical Camps
We have 4 medical camps in the books!
What Did We Do During Our Medical Camps?
Some Common Trends
Our focus was preventative care. We saw that a lot of our patients suffered from ailments with preventable causes. The most common cause was malnutrition. We aim to mitigate this issue in the communities we are trying to help, and will continue to do so in future events. Our patients often suffered from malnutrition even though many of them farm and grow their own food.
After having conversations with them, we realized that many did not know how to follow a healthy diet. We spent time educating them on healthy eating habits and what the proportions of vegetables, protein, grain, and dairy should be in their diets. Pairing education with treating their symptoms of malnutrition allows more comfort and growth
Remediate treatable illnesses
Medications, braces, and at-home exercises were used to treat bacterial infections, joint and muscle injuries, wounds, and skin issues.
Follow up care
We gave patients referrals for government hospitals which enables them to access free Healthcare in the future
Malnutrition
Malnutrition caused most of the symptoms our patients experienced. With the correct knowledge, they will be able to better nourish their bodies and decrease future likelihood of symptoms.
