The Bangladesh Indenting Agents’ Association (BIAA), in cooperation with Insaf Barakah Kidney and General Hospital, organised a free medical camp for its members and their family members on Saturday.
The camp provided free diabetes and kidney tests, along with medical consultations and health advice. Around 100 people received medical tests and consultations during the programme, according to BIAA.
BIAA President Bahalul Mansur inaugurated the camp at a ceremony held on Saturday afternoon.
Insaf Barakah Kidney and General Hospital Additional Managing Director Md Altaf Hossain, former BIAA president Md Nuruzzaman, and BIAA directors Kazi Shah Alam, Md Jashim Uddin, Al Mahmud Moinul Haque, Shohrab Hossain Sumon and Mohd Akhtaruzzaman, among others, attended the inaugural ceremony.
The medical examinations included serum creatinine and random blood sugar (RBS) tests, as well as CUS, to assess participants’ health conditions.
Speaking at the inauguration, Bahalul Mansur said the medical camp was the first initiative of its kind organised by the association for its members and their families.
He stressed the importance of health awareness, particularly in detecting kidney and diabetes-related complications at an early stage.
“The earlier such complications are detected, the easier it becomes to take appropriate preventive and medical measures,” he said.
Bahalul Mansur said the association would organise more health and welfare programmes for its members and their families in the future.
Altaf Hossain also stressed the need for greater public awareness of health issues and appreciated the BIAA initiative to provide medical services to its members and their families.
He said cooperation between BIAA and Insaf Barakah Kidney and General Hospital would be expanded in the coming days, creating more opportunities for association members and their families to access healthcare services.
The organisers said the initiative was aimed at encouraging regular health check-ups and raising awareness of diabetes and kidney-related diseases among the BIAA community.
