The Convener of Soul Lifter Foundation, Princess Islamiyat Oyefusi is set to donate medical van for medical outreach to communities in Lagos State.
The convener, who is the daughter of the Late Ayangburen of Ikorodu Kingdom, said the purpose was to provide free medical care to communities with no health centres and those which are very far from general hospitals.
Oyefusi said the vans were targeted at diagnosing 400 people on each trip.
She explained that the medical vans would go round the communities throughout Lagos State helping to provide medical outreach to communities instead of doing medical outreach once in a year.
Oyefusi also noted that it would help the less privileged with medical needs on a first line basis and even with free consultations with doctors.
She stated that free diagnostics in all areas of health would be carried out free of charge.
“The purpose is to provide free medical care to communities with no health centres which are very far from general hospitals.
“Instead of doing medical outreach in a year, this medical vans will go round the communities throughout Lagos State just helping to provide medical outreach to communities.
“It is to help the less privileged with medical needs on a first line basis and even with free consultations with doctors. It is a medical outreach but in a van that goes round,” she said.
