Philippine Heart Month
GreenCity Medical Center has celebrated Philippine Heart Month this Valentine’s Day of 2020. The event aimed to raise awareness on how to prevent and manage one of the leading causes of death in the country; heart attack.
The celebration consisted of different activities that gave our participants a simple insight into their current state of health such as free ECG, RBS, ABI, cholesterol, and uric acid. These were done in conjunction with our lay fora wherein topics related to Heart Attack, such as its prevention and possible implications, as well as the proper management of the disease, were discussed. The participants were also given the opportunity to raise questions or clarifications, thus, enriching their knowledge even more. The interest and willingness of the participants to learn about this topic encouraged an easy discussion and demonstration of basic life-support or hands-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by the Philippine Heart Association Central Luzon Chapter.
This event furthers GreenCity’s advocacy of patient education and empowerment by giving people the necessary knowledge needed to make informed decisions for their health.
