FINQ’s 130 Member Nurses Team for the Camp
Introduction
On November 22, 2024, Qatar Charity and CIC, in collaboration with the Federation of Indian Nurses Qatar (FINQ), the Indian Doctors Club, the Indian Physiotherapy Association (iPhAQ), and Wellcare Pharmacy, successfully organized a medical camp at Umm Al Saneem Health Center. This event aimed to address the health needs of the laborer population by offering basic health screenings, medical consultations, and evaluations for acute and chronic health conditions, as well as asymptomatic assessments. Operating in two shifts from 6 AM to 4 PM, the camp provided accessible, compassionate, and quality healthcare services to laborers who often face barriers to regular medical support.
Together, we have set a benchmark for community service, and I look forward to continuing this journey of making healthcare accessible to all. Thank you all once again for your extraordinary contributions. With warm regards and deep appreciation,

Nurses hands-off time of less than 20 mins between the shifts . We achieved a median registration-to-triage time of just 3 minutes throughout the medical camp. This was made possible by the dedicated efforts of the nurses and the

The nurses’ handoff time between shifts was consistently under 20 minutes, achieving a 100% success rate
The triage accuracy was above 95%. While there were initial concerns regarding stream selection, these were quickly addressed with the support of the IDC flow team coordinator and FINQ triage leads. Additionally, the accuracy of vital sign measurements was 100%.
