'Stop Diabetes' awareness community project from Solo
Hemas Wellness, being committed to its responsibility towards the
community in which it exists and operates, recently embarked on a
community based project that sees teams of wellness personnel together
with medical personnel visiting various hospitals and medical centers
around the island and conducting diabetes clinics as well as awareness
programmes.
These clinics are made available to the people of the area, free of
charge, whereby people can check blood sugar levels and if diabetic
conditions are found to exist they are then advised and instructed on
the proper maintenance and treatment that can and must be done in order
to control the condition.
Hemas Wellness embarked on this worthy 'Stop Diabetes' project in
conjunction with 2013 being the year dedicated to eradicating non
communicable diseases.
It has been found that the main cause for these diseases especially
in Sri Lanka is lack of education regarding the causes, symptoms and
treatment.
As a large segment of those being diagnosed with diabetes is the
youth and middle aged segment, Hemas Wellness has targeted this group in
their ?Stop Diabetes? community project.
Apart from free clinics conducted, the project also includes lectures
and workshops conducted at Universities such as the one conducted at Sri
Jayawardenapura University for over 500 youth.
Marketed by Hemas Wellness, Solo is certainly a step in the right
direction for all those who wish to make a positive change in their
lifestyles in a bid to control sugar levels that induce diabetes.
The increased number of those switching to solo is a testimony to the
radical changes solo can do in your life. Diabetes, if detected early
enough can be treated and be controlled.
