Project Detail
There is a continuous increase in the number of patients with chronic liver and kidney disease. Early detection is crucial for the patient to have a proper treatment as soon as possible. Caritas social workers recruit and screen eligible participants, who will be referred to Precious Blood Hospital (Caritas) to receive free body check up service. Consultation fees and medial report explanation are included. Referrals to public hospital for further follow up can be arranged if necessary.
