This is how Patients' Aid Foundation is building a 600-bed OPD and cancer research facility
Patients' Aid Foundation was founded when a group of concerned citizens planned on reducing the burden on Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre Karachi (JPMC) in 1990.
Through a private-public partnership, the organisation today is de-stressing the country's oldest government-run hospital to provide quality, free-of-charge healthcare to the thousands of patients that await assistance at the facility.
Here's what Patients' Aid Foundation has achieved so far
Housed within JPMC Karachi, Patients' Aid Foundation has relentlessly been serving its motto of 'humanity meets healthcare' for over two decades.
Beginning their journey exclusively with the Blood Bank, the Patients' Aid Foundation today has expanded reach to over 14 departments and various multi-billion projects within the JPMC.
The Patients' Aid Foundation has so far completed ten large-scale projects and established a state-of-the-art blood bank and laboratory with Pakistan's first CyberKnife facility.
The organisation has also been able to:
- Improve and create existing and new systems
- Renovate existing hospital spaces and structures
- Fund massive infrastructure projects
- Provide modern equipment and machinery
- Provide human resources to different departments in JPMC
Upcoming projects
The Patients' Aid Foundation is striving to take under its fold projects like Cyber Knife 2, a new 600-bed OPD and surgical complex and a world-class comprehensive cancer research and treatment facility.
