Living to its brand promise, ‘Today. Tomorrow. Together.’, Ncell organized the health camp in line with its anniversary theme ‘Here for You’. Health camps are very good platforms for promoting preventive healthcare services by providing free screenings of general health well-being beings helping individuals detect early health issues, if any.
All the patients who were screened at the health camp can also avail 20% discount at Norvic International Hospital for extended health checkups as per the referral in the prescription. In the camp organized from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., medicines were distributed for free to those needing the drugs.
Jabbor Kayumov, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Ncell said, “We organized this health camp at the heart of the city as a part of our commitment to promoting healthier well-being of our community because we care for our people. This is a testament that Ncell is Here for Nepal and the Nepali people, and always believes in giving back to the community. We will be organizing such health camps at the provincial levels in the days to come.”
