🕒 Published: October 31, 2025 by Muqaddas Tahreem
The Clinic on Wheels 2025 initiative launched by Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif is setting new records every single day. On October 30, 2025, the program achieved a remarkable milestone — 54,728 patients received free healthcare services across Punjab in just one day. This revolutionary step is transforming the provincial healthcare system by bringing medical facilities directly to people’s homes and villages, ensuring that even the most remote citizens receive modern medical treatment.
Under CM Maryam Nawaz’s visionary leadership, Punjab’s health sector is witnessing unprecedented reform. The “Clinic on Wheels” vans are fully equipped mobile hospitals, staffed with trained doctors, nurses, and diagnostic experts who provide free consultations, antenatal care, ultrasounds, and medicines — all at the doorstep of the poor.
Introduction – Healthcare at Every Doorstep
The Clinic on Wheels 2025 project embodies CM Maryam Nawaz’s commitment to “Health for All.” The idea is simple yet transformative — if patients can’t reach hospitals, hospitals will reach them.
These mobile clinics have been strategically deployed across urban, rural, and underserved areas of Punjab to reduce the burden on government hospitals and to make healthcare accessible to those who need it most.
With hundreds of green vans branded as “Chief Minister Clinic on Wheels – Life Care”, the program operates daily to provide basic to intermediate healthcare services, emergency aid, and preventive screenings.

Public Response – A Life-Changing Initiative

For many villagers, traveling long distances to a hospital used to be expensive and time-consuming. Now, with the Clinic on Wheels parked right at their doorsteps, they can receive medical attention without leaving their communities.
One elderly patient from Bahawalnagar said,
“For the first time in my life, a doctor came to my house to check my blood pressure and sugar. I didn’t have to spend money on transport or medicine. This is truly a blessing.”
Coverage Across Punjab
The Clinic on Wheels network is expanding rapidly. Vans are now operational in all major districts including Lahore, Multan, Faisalabad, Gujranwala, Sargodha, Bahawalpur, and Rawalpindi.
Each district health authority monitors and reports daily progress to the Punjab Health Department, ensuring transparency and accountability.
Soon, the government plans to add 500 more vehicles to the fleet to ensure complete coverage of the province.
Digital Monitoring and Transparency
Each mobile clinic is GPS-tracked and digitally monitored through a centralized Command and Control Center.
This system allows the health department to monitor:
- Daily patient numbers
- Types of diseases treated
- Medicine usage and inventory levels
- Feedback from patients
This data-driven approach ensures that no area is neglected and that services remain consistent throughout Punjab.
How to Avail Clinic on Wheels Services
Citizens do not need to register online or visit any office. The vans follow a district-wise route schedule, stopping at fixed community points or going door-to-door.
