Visit to Leprosy Hospital Rawalpindi

Rawalpindi has the oldest leprosy hospital in the region. Set up in 1904 by the British Leprosy Mission , the hospital is located in what is now a congested part of the city. At the time of establishment of the hospital, it was a deserted place in the outskirts of the city. The hospital was the brainchild of an American professor, Dr R. R. Stewart , who used to teach at the local Gordon College of the US missionaries. The programme deals with tuberculosis, skin problems, blindn ess, psychotherapy and rehabilitation. In Pakistan, 1,000 new leprosy cases are discovered annually. It may be noted here that leprosy is one of the least contagious of the contagious diseases in the world. St. Thomas CFCBR staff visited and learnt about the hospital activities and facilities available to the patients. Dr. Chris made a presentation about the Leprosy Hospital Rawalpindi . It was a great addition to the knowledge of CFCBR staff.
