Need of the Hospital

CLAPP Board of Trustees has realized an increasing need to develop a new Hospital which can cater thousands of such patients who have no other place to go for free surgeries. These conditions if not treated timely, make these patients crippled and disabled forever. Thousands of patients are untreated just because of lack of money. CLAPP Trust has felt the pain of those needy patients and Board of Trustees has decided to construct a new hospital with a vision to change the lives of those needy patients who are living with their disabilities due to financial constraints.

Initiative for Hospital

With better financial management, CLAPP Trust saved a good amount from the donations received from Local and International donors by freezing the expenses up to a certain limit.

Clapp Board has decided to establish a new hospital where free surgical treatment can be given to the patients of Crania-Facial deformity, Blindness (congenital or acquired cataract), Club foot, Hydrocephalus, Hole in the Heart in addition to Cleft Lip & Palate and Post-Burn Contractures.

Clapp Trust has already purchased a piece of land measuring 18787,5 square feet or 1745 Square meter in 2011 equivalent to 4 Kanals and 3.5 Marlas. When we started developing the Building designs, we soon came to realise that this piece of land is quite insufficient as per our requirements. In 2014, we purchased another adjacent piece of land measuring 1750 Square meter to add to the project requirements. But our Architect was still not convinced that we have adequate land for our needs. So we were asked to purchase an adjacent piece of land to fulfil our desires to establish a state of the art hospital. So now the total land measures about 47,700 Sq.

Feet or 4431 Square meters (10 Kanals and 11 Marlas). The cost of land and other expenses incurred on it amounts to 1.6 million US$.

The building designs for 400 bedded hospital have been finalised by “Green Studio” firm. They have designed many Medical colleges and Hospitals in Punjab. CLAPP has submitted the

Building designs to the Punjab Government. We hope to start the construction process somewhere in May 2016 and complete the project in March 2018.

Pakistan Scenario

Pakistan is fourth country in the world having more cleft patients after China, India and Indonesia. 1 out of 10 children born with a cleft dies before his/her first birthday. Incidence across the globe is approximately 1 out of 500-700 Live births but it is 1 in 550 live births in Pakistan. Children with a cleft palate who do not receive surgery by age 10 may have lifelong speech issues.

In Pakistan, more than 9,000 cleft lip & palate patients are born every year. More than 70,000 cleft patients are un-operated, still waiting for surgery since many years.

Cleft is not the only problem in Pakistan. There are many other deformities for which patients have to wait at government hospitals for so long as there is lot of rush of patients waiting for their turn for Surgery.

Pakistan Scenario shows the following figures about such deformities.

Cranio-facial Deformities
In Pakistan, more than 1,000 cases every year.
More than 10,000 are un-operated, still waiting for surgery since many years.

Hydrocephalus
In Pakistan, more than 3,000 cases every year.
More than 25,000 are UN-operated, still waiting for surgery since many years.

Blindness (Congenital Cataract)
In Pakistan, more than 40,000 cases every year.
More than 300,000 are UN-operated, still waiting for surgery since many years.

Club Foot
In Pakistan, more than 5,000 cases every year.
More than 35,000 are UN-operated, still waiting for surgery since many years.

Hole in the Heart
In Pakistan, more than 40,000 cases every year, majority of these patients die due to delay in surgery.
More than 100,000 are UN-operated, still waiting for surgery.

Post Burn Contractures
In Pakistan, more than 5,000 cases every year.
More than 30,000  are UN-operated, still waiting for surgery since many years.
