Prince Court and Rotary Club KL DiRaja Partner to Improve Healthcare for Underserved Communities

Kuala Lumpur, 19 August – Prince Court Medical Centre has reinforced its commitment to community care through a strategic partnership with the Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur DiRaja, aimed at improving access to quality healthcare for underserved communities.

At the 97th installation of the President and Board of Directors of the Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur DiRaja, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed to provide essential healthcare services to the B40 community through the IHH Life Renewed Fund.

Life Renewed is a community programme by IHH Healthcare Malaysia that sponsors medical treatment for needy patients. To date, it has helped over 2,000 underprivileged Malaysians access expert care from IHH Healthcare Malaysia’s network of hospitals, including Prince Court.

Under this partnership, Prince Court and the Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur DiRaja will identify and profile patients in need of cardiology, ophthalmology, and orthopaedic services, thereby addressing critical health issues within the community and enhancing public care.

Prince Court will also actively participate in various community initiatives led by the Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur DiRaja as their official healthcare partner, contributing medical expertise and support.

Dr Shuba Srinivasan, Chief Executive Officer of Prince Court, said, “Through our partnership with the Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur DiRaja, we are committed to making a lasting impact on those in need of medical attention, reaffirming our dedication to fostering a healthier and more inclusive society. This collaboration enables us to deliver high-quality, accessible healthcare where it matters most.”

Dr. Shuba emphasised the importance of working with strategic partners to address health concerns and contribute to the community's long-term well-being.

“We are honoured to be the official healthcare partner for the Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur DiRaja’s health programmes and look forward to making a meaningful impact together.”

Prince Court and Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur DiRaja aim to bridge the gap in healthcare accessibility through this partnership, empowering marginalised communities to receive the medical care they need.

Dr Alaric A. Nathan, President of the Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur DiRaja, said, “We are delighted to partner with Prince Court in our ongoing efforts to serve the community. This MoU allows us to expand our outreach and ensure that the B40 community has access to quality healthcare. By working together, we can provide life-renewing treatments to those who need them most, upholding the values of service and care that are the foundation of Rotary International.”
