CVSKL making heart care more accessible

CVSKL, a leading regional cardiac hospital, chalked up another milestone by launching CVSKL Foundation.

The hospital’s first foundation aims to improve the healthcare system for Malaysian underprivileged patients, especially those seeking complex medical care. 

A team of doctors at CVSKL founded the charitable and non-profit organisation.

A Board of trustees of industry leaders in various sectors will govern the foundation.

CVSKL Foundation patron Yang Di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Muhriz ibni Almarhum Tuanku Munawir officially launched the organisation, witnessed by the Board of Trustees.

CVSKL supports medical advancement and research

The foundation’s objectives are to support medical advancement and research initiatives to increase awareness of cardiac and vascular diseases.

It will also provide financial support for the low-income group by managing funds received and raised.

Chairperson Tan Sri Datuk Seri Rashpal Singh highlighted that the launch came together at the most reasonable time as the government is shifting its priority from managing Covid-19.

“The high utilization of public healthcare services has led to overcrowded facilities resulting in longer waits.

“We are ready to work with the Ministry of Health to complement the government’s hard work in improving the social wellbeing and health quality of fellow Malaysians,” he added.

Datuk Dr Rosli, a consultant cardiologist at CVSKL, also handed over a cheque for RM1 million in a donation to CVSKL Foundation.

“The establishment of CVSKL Foundation is an essential piece of the puzzle that will amplify CVSKL as a Centre of Excellence.

“In 2021 alone, our CSR efforts totalled up to RM4.15 million, which benefitted 545 patients.

“With CVSKL Foundation unifying and intensifying this, I am certain we can help more people.” Datuk Dr Rosli shared.
