National Institute of Child Health (NICH) – Karachi

In 2013, the National Institute of Child Health invited ChildLife to adopt its pediatric emergency room, one of the biggest children’s ER in Pakistan. In a public-private venture with National Institute of Child Health (NICH). As with Civil Hospital, ChildLife did not simply vamp up the building; it hired trained and qualified staff and put in place innovative technological solutions that would ensure timely and efficient delivery of medical care to incoming patients.
ChildLife Foundation and NICH partnered with Memon Medical Institute Hospital (MMIH), a welfare hospital run by the charitable Memon community, so that patients requiring ventilators when one was not available at NICH could be transferred to MMIH and treated free of charge.
