Health Goes to School

On November 21st, the closing of the “Health Goes to School” Program will take place, which was implemented by the Secretariat of Human Development and Environment of the Municipality of Concordia and whose objective was to bring the different Primary Health Care areas to participate, through workshops, in schools in order to promote actions focused on the prevention, care, and recovery of health, in addition to obtaining information in the field on other issues related to the sanitary life of the community in general.

 

Guillermo Echenause, Secretary of Human Development, Health and Environment, expressed his satisfaction with this task performed, highlighting the support of Mayor Enrique Cresto for the implementation of said program, and also remarked that it was executed on the initiative of Licentiate María Inmaculada Soto Denis and the outstanding collaboration and participation of the Primary Health Care Area staff.

 

“The objective was to bring the different areas of the Primary Health Care centers so that, through the holding of workshops, they could identify the determinants of the health-disease process, both for the health of individuals and communities,” said the official, adding that another point was to “promote actions aimed at strengthening the prevention, care, and recovery of the health of residents.”

 

Finally, he pointed out that at the closing of the “Health Goes to School” Program, the conclusions obtained from the work carried out during this time will be shared, for which he extended an invitation to the entire community to attend on November 21st, starting at 9:30 a.m., at the Concordia Convention Center.
