Immunization Day at IUBAT

Rotary Clubs world-wide sponsor child immunization programs, usually coinciding with government initiatives. IUBAT has strong connections with Rotary Club of Greater Dhaka which provided the vaccines for the national polio eradication drive held last February. Using the IUBAT campus, this annual event attracts local residents of all ages. Under the guidance of faculty member RN Shamsun Nahar, IUBAT College of Nursing students organize the event, register clients and administer vaccines. In time, we hope to develop a primary health care clinic to serve the neighbourhood shanty-dwellers.
