On 2 August 2006 "Health Awareness
Project" was organised with full enthusiasm & spirit by third year
students of School of Nursing, Sir Ganga Ram Hospital. The main aim of the
project was to bring awareness about anemia in adolescent girls. For this
purpose survey was done in 100 Quarter Area near Karol Bagh to estimate the Hb
level among the girls. Blood samples were taken and data was collected in the
form of questionnaire. After collection of data, analysis was done. The survey
was a great success as we were able to screen 93 girls among 115 families. The
result of Hb estimation were:
-
Normal - 44 (Above 12 gm%)
-
Mild Anaemia - 39 (Hb 10-11.9 gm%)
-
Moderate Anaemia - 09 (Hb - 7-9.9
gm%)
-
Severe Anaemia - 01 (Hb less than 7
gm%)
The affected girls with anaemia were
screened & follow up was done with repeat testing. They were provided with
iron & folic acid tablets & informed them to repeat the Hb estimation
after 1 month after taking regular iron rich diet & drug therapy.
On the day of "Health Project" i.e. 2
August 2006, health education was given in the form of health talks, exhibition
display and dance drama on the topics i.e. Anaemia Immunisation, Family
Planning, Environmental Sanitation free distribution of iron and folic acid
tablets & ORS packets was done. In the end, feedback was taken from the
public. The whole programme was a successful event.
