Event Details
Type: Medical Outreach Program
Date: 11th – 22nd March, 2024.
Time: 8 am – 6 pm
Location: Calabar Women and Children Hospital
Outline of Events
- Health Awareness Day (HEAD); public health awareness has remained a need in our country. Public health is “the science and art of preventing disease, prolonging life, and promoting health through the organized efforts and informed choices of society, organizations, public and private communities, and individuals.” In Nigeria, public health issues include HIV/AIDS, poliomyelitis, tuberculosis, malaria, etc. It is therefore our prerogative at Calabar Women and Children’s Hospital to periodically provide these services to women and children in the state and beyond.
- Medical Missions (Mms.): This is our social responsibility. Providing a 2-week-long non-paying medical service. Through the support of our sponsors, a team of medical volunteers (volunteer opportunities open to doctors, nurses, midwives, pharmacists, etc.) Services available will include gynecology, obstetrics, nutrition, breast and cervical cancer screenings, antenatal care, fetal care, pediatrics, and surgical interventions. Our medical mission’s target will be to meet the dire needs of very poor mothers and children in the state within the stipulated community service time.
- Movie Theatre: A modern, fully furnished movie theatre with a state-of-the-art finish has been included within the hospital complex. Why movie theatre? Relaxation has been proven to possess both preventive and curative qualities for some health problems. In line with modern medical practice and proof that CWCH is not just another hospital but a complete health management institution, periodic entertainment, such as movies, will be aired at the hospital. Admitting patients and visitors at a comparative cost
