Healthcare on Wheels - স্বাস্থ্য চাকা

Healthcare on Wheels” project by the ASP foundation and patronized by Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TİKA), has been conceived to offer medical consultation, conduct clinical tests and supply medicines to people who are living in the slums area, street vendors and remote areas of Bangladesh. “Healthcare on wheels” will be mobile one stop solution for the vulnerable society who cannot reach hospital for basic health checkup.

The objective of the project is to extend healthcare facilities free of cost to the needy at their doorstep. The van/transport will be deployed in each area as per the Bangladesh Medical Guidelines. Along with consultation space, the facilities in the transport include consulting room, a well – equipped lab with diagnostic facilities, medicine dispensation, areas to provide diagnostic care of blood, glucose, pregnancy testing and so on. The van/transport is also equipped to create awareness programmes for child health, geriatric and communicable diseases and to educate society on various lifestyle changes that impact their health.

Apart from our focus on primary health, Healthcare on Wheels broadly covers five aspects:

Health-related awareness,
Health screening,
Treatment,
Skill training &
Empowerment.

The van will also be deployed for various vaccination in rural and coastal areas in future and to help various government and nongovernment agencies as per government rules.

Reaching the unreached through fully equipped Mobile Healthcare Units staffed with doctors and paramedics, providing OPD services, point-of-care test facilities free of cost and free medicines.

Amader Somoyer Pratiddhani Foundation through its initiative, ‘Health Cannot Wait’ is providing people from the underprivileged sections access to an affordable healthcare system in Bangladesh, preventive medicine, health emergency preparedness, and support at their doorstep across urban slums and rural pockets of India.

ASPF healthcare programme aims at taking healthcare at the doorsteps of people. It encourages health awareness and contemporary healthcare-seeking behaviour among underprivileged people. It is done through campaigns, health camps organised at regular intervals, and providing health screening, medical care, and medicines through mobile health clinics. And we do realise, that we need to do much more.
