Hello everyone @throwbackthursday community, I'm @fab-tay and i welcome us all to yet another throwback thursday once again 馃暫and it's always a delight to relieve the memories of great moments of the past. Also, i want to commend the administrator of this group
@jesuslnrs and other team members for all their efforts week in, week out. This week, my throwback will be on the last Community Health Outreach i attended to commemorate the World Pharmacists Day Celebration.
Hola a todos, comunidad de @throwbackthursday. Soy
@fab-tay y les doy la bienvenida a otro Jueves de Recuerdos. Siempre es un placer revivir los grandes momentos del pasado. Tambi茅n quiero felicitar al administrador de este grupo,
@jesuslnrs, y a los dem谩s miembros del equipo por su esfuerzo semana tras semana. Esta semana, mi recuerdo ser谩 sobre la 煤ltima jornada de salud comunitaria a la que asist铆 para conmemorar el D铆a Mundial del Farmac茅utico.
Sound/good health is one of the cardinals of a quality life/living and this can never be overemphasized. However, not everyone enjoyed the basic healthcare as should be for every citizens especially those living in the rural areas where the reach of the government isn't felt as it should be. As part of the program of events to commemorate the world pharmacists day, we the community pharmacists took it upon ourselves to extend the olive branch of healthcare to a rural area in my state of practice here in Nigeria even as we journeyed from the state capital down there.
La buena salud es fundamental para una vida de calidad, y esto es fundamental. Sin embargo, no todos disfrutaban de la atenci贸n m茅dica b谩sica que todos los ciudadanos deber铆an tener, especialmente quienes viven en zonas rurales, donde la influencia del gobierno no es la adecuada. Como parte del programa de eventos para conmemorar el D铆a Mundial del Farmac茅utico, los farmac茅uticos comunitarios nos propusimos extender la rama de olivo de la atenci贸n m茅dica a una zona rural de mi estado, aqu铆 en Nigeria, incluso durante nuestro viaje desde la capital.
The outreach involved we checking the vital signs like the blood pressure, blood sugar (glucose), body mass index (BMI) etc. Also, a free eye check was also organised and there was a health talk with a session on physical exercise. The turn out was massive and it was indeed a great joy to have impacted these people positively, giving back to the community and assisting the government for a good health coverage in the state. Health outreach has always been a part of me even as i look forward to more in the nearest time because: "Health is indeed wealth". Thanks for watching and reading my throwback for this week. Comments and contributions are welcomed.
La labor de divulgaci贸n incluy贸 la revisi贸n de signos vitales como la presi贸n arterial, la glucemia (glucosa), el 铆ndice de masa corporal (IMC), etc. Adem谩s, se organiz贸 un examen de la vista gratuito y se ofreci贸 una charla de salud con una sesi贸n sobre ejercicio f铆sico. La asistencia fue masiva y fue una gran alegr铆a haber tenido un impacto positivo en estas personas, contribuyendo a la comunidad y ayudando al gobierno a lograr una buena cobertura de salud en el estado. La divulgaci贸n de salud siempre ha formado parte de m铆, y espero con ansias que haya m谩s pr贸ximamente porque: "La salud es riqueza". Gracias por ver y leer mi retrospectiva de esta semana. Se agradecen comentarios y contribuciones.
