Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus have become a threat to public health as they have a high potential to cause complications from various diseases, and many people are unaware they are afflicted because the diseases often occur without complaints.
Badiklat PKN Polyclinic collaborated with Hermina Jatinegara Hospital to hold a Health Webinar with the theme “Prevent and Control Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus for Better Work Productivity” for Badiklat PKN Employees, on Thursday (2/22).
Together with the resource person, an internist at Hermina Hospital, dr. Fita Fitrianti, webinar participants received health knowledge ranging from Recognizing causes, Risk factors, Complications, to Preventing Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus.
Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus can be prevented by implementing a healthy lifestyle and balanced nutrition with CERDIK, namely regular health checks, getting rid of cigarette smoke, regular physical activity, a balanced diet, getting enough rest, and managing stress.
Through this activity, it is hoped that employees will further increase awareness of maintaining health and being able to implement prevention and control of hypertension and diabetes mellitus to increase work productivity.
