FREE SURGICAL AND MEDICAL TREATMENTS FOR IMPOVERISHED COMMUNITIES

Transparent Hands is a Gift Aid nonprofit organization registered in the UK. As one of the largest online crowdfunding platforms in the healthcare sector, Transparent Hands raises funds to make quality healthcare accessible free of charge. The organization provides free surgeries and medical treatments to the most deserving patients. In addition, Transparent Hands uplifts vulnerable and underserved communities by arranging free medical camps where patients benefit from checkups by expert doctors, medicines, diagnostic tests, and preventive healthcare sessions. Patients diagnosed with health conditions that require surgical or further medical interventions are registered for treatment. 

CHALLENGES FACED BY PATIENTS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES 

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) around 50% of people in the world do not have access to healthcare services. What’s more, a large number of people are pushed into extreme poverty due to healthcare expenses each year, especially in developing countries. Many patients and their families cannot access life-saving treatments due to financial constraints or because their needs are not being met by the healthcare facilities near them. Patients in developing countries are currently facing multiple issues: 

• The quality of healthcare and facilities available to patients is often inadequate. In fact, approximately 10% of hospital patients get a new infection while they are hospitalized. 
• Many patients live in rural and remote areas that don’t have modern, well-equipped hospitals with trained staff. 
• Public hospitals are often overburdened and private hospitals are too expensive for patients belonging to underprivileged communities. 
• Local hospitals often have large surgery backlogs. 
• Lack of sanitation and access to clean water contributes to the prevalence of diseases. In some developing countries, as much as 75% of the population lacks adequate access to soap and water.
• Preventive health is not available to millions of patients, especially women and children.
