No less than 10 doctors with 40 nurses and volunteers from Kalbe Shares came to TNI AL Kodamar Complex, North Jakarta, Thursday, 15 February 2007. PT Kalbe Farma Tbk did this post-flooding social service in collaboration with MitraKeluargaHospital and TNI AL Marine Corps. The activities carried out including free post flooding treatment and the giving out of baby food.
Straight from the location, Dr Sujitno Fadli one of the medical team explained that there are about 545 patients that came for check ups. The community’s enthusiasm is very high. This could be seen during the time of registration that was suppose to be closed at 14.00 lasted much longer because there were so many people. The diseases mostly found were muscle pain, flu, skin diseases (eczema and daphnia) There were also people who still complain of having diarrhea as well as needing to have their wounds treated.
Besides the above activities, during this post-flooding time, Kalbe Farma also distributed medications such as Entrostop, Kalpanax, etc through 60 organizations and flood posts to areas that were flooded. “Besides distributing medications we also give out banner to remind people about the importance of cleanliness to keep diseases namely diarrhea and skin diseases at their minimum” explained Mr. Abdi Aydi Jaya of Kalbe Farma, as one of the event’s coordinators.
