Helping Our Needy Patients

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Our charity supports the hospital's needy patients, including low-income or elderly patients ​with little savings and limited family support. Patients are supported with out-of-pocket expenses for essential items such as breathing equipment, mobility aids, and dentures. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we can help these needy patients through various programmes.

 

In appreciation, some of our patients have gratefully com​e ​forward to share their stories.​​​
