The Department of Community Health Techniques at the College of Health Technologies and Medical, Al-Mustaqbal University, organized a field health screening activity under the slogan “Healthy Weight and Ideal Blood Pressure… Your Gateway to Sustainable Health and a Better Life.” The initiative targeted new students and their families during the university’s registration period.
The activity included basic health assessments, including measurements of weight and height, calculation of Body Mass Index (BMI) to classify weight categories and obesity levels, and blood pressure measurements. These procedures aimed to raise participants’ awareness of the importance of monitoring health indicators and identifying risk factors associated with obesity and high blood pressure.
Hundreds of students participated in the initiative, which continues throughout the registration period. The activity seeks to promote health awareness and encourage students and their families to adopt healthy lifestyles and undergo regular health check-ups as essential steps toward disease prevention and sustainable well-being.
This initiative reflects Al-Mustaqbal University’s commitment to promoting health awareness, serving the community, and fostering a culture of prevention and health education among students and their families.
