The Bilqees Sarwar Hospital (BSH) provides the employees of the HSNDS factory, their family, and patients in Pakistan with free and subsidized healthcare; this includes 50 dialysis machines to use without a cost and free eye-care treatments ranging from laser vision correction to minor surgeries. Since its inception, the hospital has served a community of 500,000 citizens and treats up to 3,000 eye patients per month. The hospital offers a range of other services, including:
In June, 2016 BSF established Razia Begum Dialysis Centre (RBDC) near Kahna, to treat patients with kidney disease free of charge.[1] The centre provides free dialysis to up to 4,500 patients on a monthly basis, and has provided 5,792 dialysis treatment to date.
BSF has supported Alseeraj for Development and Healthcare in order for it to continue its mobile medical clinic in Syrian refugee camps in eastern Lebanon.
BSF has donated to several departments of Mayo Hospital in Punjab, Pakistan:[2]
BSF has granted 77 scholarships worth US$33,398 to students at the Customs Public School in Lahore.[3] The scholarship programme supports young students from the age of 3 to 13.
