GHCA had received enquiries from four underprivileged dialysis patient recently who required fistula surgery assistance urgently in order to undergo haemodialysis treatment safely.
This medical surgery cost ranges from RM2000 to RM5000, and this is such a huge expense for the dialysis patient's family to bear on, especially during the current economic uncertainties.
After speaking with the patients, GHCA concluded that the fistula surgery is vital for each of the dialysis patients because it reduces the risk of virus infection by allowing them to receive dialysis treatment via their hands after the surgery rather than via their neck before surgery.
Thus, GHCA assisted these four patients with their medical surgery fees, after which we continued with providing them with dialysis aid accordingly to the needs of the patients.
We are grateful to have been able to assist these families in completing their surgeries, and we wish them a speedy recovery!
