Our team did a workshop on health promotion and disease prevention for Ukranian refugees in Vienna. The visit and the workshop were organised by our wonderful med-student Luka Kovacevic who is also actively involved and regularly volunteers his time at Train Of Hope, which is an NGO offering social and legal support for displaced individuals.
After a short input session, the magical Community Health Lab team Ramona Afzali, Anna Duregger, Tobias Fragner, Igor Grabovac, Isabella Schiller and Filip Stupar did blood glucose and blood pressure, bodyweight and other measurements together with advice on improving and maintaining health.
We are very happy to report, that the visit was a hit and some of the most engaged ladies also already want to form a “Health Group” and make sure health remains a priority even in such deeply difficult circumstances. We will be back.
