With a focus on its Medical pillar, on Saturday July 12th 2014, BAPS Charities Nairobi held a free medical camp at Akshar Healthcare Clinic in Kikuyu town. The main objective of this camp was to provide essential medical screening for the less fortunate residents in the Kikuyu area.
A total of 200 residents from the area were consulted and advised over the course of the day by highly experienced medical practitioners who volunteered their time for this camp.
The screening was focused on Body Mass index (BMI), Blood pressure, Diabetes, and Dental. Most individuals who cannot afford or simply neglect such medical checks found it very beneficial receiving advice on how to improve their lifestyle and recommendations for further treatment if required
