Our Community Health Campaign train was at Zorkor – Goo in the Bongo District of the Upper East Region.
Our Health Campaign program is aimed at reaching people living in rural communities who have no access to regular health checkups.
With an impressive turnout of community members, We had the opportunity to attend to a lot of children, adults and the aged.
As part of our two days exercise in the Goo Community, We checked Body Mass Index(BMI), Blood pressure, Random/Fasting blood sugar tests, ENT assessment and consultations and Wound Care. We also Educated community members on alcoholism and foetal alcohol syndrome.
Mothers were educated on nutrition and child care. For children we identified to be under weight, some food supplements and milks were given to their parent to help in their diet needs.
We are committed to seeing a healthy community where children, parents and the aged have access to good healthcare.
