City Bank provides medical equipment for measles treatment

City Bank PLC has extended support to critical paediatric care facilities at two public healthcare institutions as Bangladesh faces a growing measles outbreak.

The bank is providing essential medical equipment for the dedicated measles intensive care unit (ICU) at Bangladesh Shishu Hospital & Institute (BSHI) and the measles-focused paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) at Chittagong Medical College Hospital.

The initiative builds on City Bank’s earlier support for establishing a high dependency unit (HDU) at the BSHI.

Together, the interventions have helped strengthen more than 40 critical care and specialised treatment beds across public healthcare institutions in the country, according to a press release.

The initiatives reflect City Bank’s broader commitment to inclusive and sustainable social development, with a continued focus on healthcare, women and youth empowerment, and community well-being, the release added.

As a purpose-driven institution, the bank continues to invest in initiatives aimed at strengthening communities and creating long-term social impact.
