ADA free health screening for Akrofuom residents

The Adansi Development Association has started its health screening exercise at Akrofuom in the Akrofuom District. The exercise is expected to be rolled out across the seven paramountcies in the Adansi land.

Excerpt from the article:

The highly patronised health screening exercise also coincided with the commemoration of the 2023 Menstrual Hygiene Day, where the Association teamed up with the Rotary Club of Obuasi to sensitize school children on the need to maintain hygienic and safe menstruation.

Speaking about the rationale behind the exercise, the President of the Adansi Development Association, Henrietta Oppong, said that true to the Association’s core mandate to help improve the livelihoods and wellbeing of residents of Adansi, the group decided to embark on the health screening exercise.

The exercise covered screening for blood pressure, diabetes, malaria, BMI, and body temperature.

“We are doing this across the seven paramountcies to ensure that the older people will be screened to know their state of health and how to live their lives to the fullest,” she said.
