In line with the Ministry of Health’s (MOH) goal to provide free health screenings to people aged 18 and above, Pejabat Kesihatan Daerah Kampar in collaboration with UTAR Division of Human Resource successfully conducted a one-day free health screening service at UTAR Kampar Campus on 18 July 2023.

The programme, which is parked under the MoH’s National Health Screening Initiative (NHSI) 2023, attracted a total of 131 visitors from Kampar including UTARians. The visitors received basic free health screenings which included physical examination, bio-physical measurements, blood pressure examination and pap-smear screening.

The event was conducted with the support of some medical officers and nurses from nearby government health clinic Klinik Kesihatan Kampar.

The response was good and many visitors expressed their gratitude for the good initiative taken by the government in providing free health screening services to people aged 18 and above.
