M42 brings together top global health experts for the inaugural Abu Dhabi Global Healthcare Week 2024

M42’s Capital Health Screening Centre distributes 2,000 iftar meal boxes to workers

  • Volunteers visited blue-collar workers in Musaffah and Al Ain, talking to workers and boosting morale

Capital Health Screening Centre, part of the M42 group, got into the spirit of the holy month by distributing 2,000 iftar meal boxes to labor workers in Musaffah and Al Ain. It was the second year running that Capital Health Screening Centre had taken part in the initiative, this year extending its reach to Al Ain and doubling the number of meal boxes provided.

Led by Chief Executive Officer at Capital Health Screening Centre, Ali Ibrahim Mohamed Alsaffar, the Capital Health Screening Centre volunteers team included 35 individuals who helped give out the boxes, which contained dates, fruits, water, protein-rich dishes, a cool refreshing laban drink and mouthwatering traditional Ramadan delicacies.

Ali Ibrahim Mohamed Alsaffar, Chief Executive Officer at Capital Health Screening Centre, said, “Ramadan is traditionally a time of communities and families coming together. Some of these workers are away from their homes and families and this small gesture is our way of showing them that they are cared about and appreciated. Seeing the joy on their faces as we hand out our boxes is rewarding and extremely heartwarming. While the primary focus of Capital Health Screening Centre is medical screenings, our outreach into the community exemplifies the holistic approach needed for fostering well-being on a broader scale and addressing not only the physical but also the emotional and social needs of individuals.”

Capital Health Screening Centre volunteers engaged in heartfelt conversations, sharing stories, and offering words of encouragement to the workers. The initiative spread joy and comradeship during this special time of the year. These residents were delighted with the Capital Health Screening Centre initiative and said it made them feel like valued members of the community. 

Capital Health Screening Centre is actively involved in the community. It offers a range of medical screening services for individuals and companies, including residency visa medical screenings, occupational health certificates and eligibility for pension and benefits. It also has a fleet of mobile screening units that provide on-site services for groups of 20 to 600, which saves time and travel costs for companies and employees.
