At least 2,000 residents in Meru County have benefited from ongoing free medical check-ups and nutrition advice organized by Jubilee Health Insurance, Aga Khan University Hospital and Solutions Sacco.

The free medical camp is geared towards driving public educatįon on the role of preventative care in early dįsease detection and management.

Most of the people who have turned up for this drive are aged between 40 years to 70 years. The prevalent conditions that have been treated during the drive include tract infectįons, gastric disorders as well as musculoskeletal and upper respiratory conditions primarily associated with cold in the area.

Jubilee Health Insurance CEO and Principal Officer rallied the youth to take advantage of the medical drive.

“We have noticed that most of the people seeking medical care during this drive are aged 40 years and above. We are encouraging the youth to also come and get their health checked. Regular health check-ups are designed to detect medical issues and identify risk factors before they manifest.”

The Aga Khan University Hospital Director of Marketing and Business Development Pauline Ngatia noted that medical drives such as this will enable different health stakeholders to predict health trends and to better manage the spread of dįseases.

“The Live Free mobile clinic has not only been beneficial to the people of Meru, but it has also brought attention to the prevalent medical conditions within this region. We will continue to work with Jubilee Health Insurance and Solution Sacco to address these issues,” she said.

Solutions Sacco CEO Daniel Marete noted that the free mobile clinic is enabling Meru residents to attain the highest attainable standard of health.

“Access to healthcare is a fundamental human right. We are very excited to be part of the Live Free mobile clinic which is making this achievable for the people of Meru. We still have four more days left and we would like to rally the residents to come for the free health screenings,” said Marete.

The free mobile clinic, which is part of the Jubilee Insurance 85 Years’ celebration, will end on Saturday, December 10, 2022. The camp is happening in Meru Town, Maua, Chuka, Timau, and Nanyuki regions.
