The medical camp took place in the Saif Zone conference room, providing a convenient and accessible location for the Northern Emirates employees to participate in the health check-up. The venue was carefully taken into consideration to ensure the participation of a maximum number of employees.
The medical camp featured a comprehensive range of health check-up services addressing various aspects of well-being. The services included the following.
- Doctor Consultation : Employees could consult with qualified medical professionals, address health concerns, and receive personalized advice on maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
- Blood Sugar Test : Monitoring blood sugar levels is crucial for preventing and managing diabetes. The camp provided a convenient opportunity for employees to undergo blood sugar tests, contributing to early detection and preventive measures.
- Blood Pressure (BP) Check : High blood pressure is a common health issue; regular monitoring is essential. The medical camp included BP checks, enabling employees to assess and manage their blood pressure levels.
- Cholesterol Screening : Elevated cholesterol levels can pose significant health risks. Including cholesterol screening in the health check-up allowed employees to understand their lipid profile and take steps towards a heart-healthy lifestyle.
- HbA1C Test (if needed) : For those at risk or managing diabetes, the Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) test provides a more comprehensive assessment of blood sugar control over time. This additional service showcased the camp’s commitment to addressing specific health needs.
