Health promotion strategies were intensified in accordance with National Policy on Strengthening the Prevention and Control of Chronic Lifestyle Related Non Communicable Diseases (Administrative Order No. 2011-0003 dated April 14, 2011 ) to effect holistic changes to hypertensive individuals.
Biggest loser contest and Zumba sessions were conducted to promote healthy diet and physical activity.
Efforts to improve hypertension awareness and medication adherence were done through health education campaigns, text brigades, and home-visits to identified hypertensive individuals.
Added to that, to ensure that our active BHWs are geared up for the hypertension epidemic, hypertension screening and health education refresher training was also done.
We thank our partners-Barangay council, BHS, and fellow health advocates for their enormous support.
