Over 200 of Brampton community residents had their blood pressure and cholesterol level checked at the free heart and health-screening clinic.
“It was an amazing experience, I worked as a volunteer in the registration line and later I had my blood pressure and cholesterol level checked. I am glad that my blood pressure and cholesterol level is very normal,” said Kuldeep Paul, Brampton Resident. Paul is an active member of the Sant Nirankari Mission, and working has been working in all community events for past 20 years.
“There are many people who do not have a health card, and Normal routine check up cost them a lot of money, also they afraid to see a doctor because it might go in their medical record, so I think, It is a good opportunity for them to have free check up at this event, said Paul.” Community service is often referred as “Seva” in one of the basic principals of the Sant Nirankari Mission. Mission is known for itsAdopt-A-Road cleanliness drive events, Blood donation clinics, welfare and awareness events. “It’s a fantastic day.
