The Dean of the Faculty, Dr. Fadia Mayyas, mentioned that organizing this awareness activity aims to enhance the college's role in serving the university and the community, spreading health awareness in the medical field to protect individuals and society. This is achieved by empowering patients to manage their medications and health conditions.
She added that this activity provides an opportunity to enhance students' skills through practical application and knowledge exchange with the university community. Particularly during the holy month of Ramadan, with its "health considerations" for patients with chronic diseases in terms of medication distribution, multiple doses, and timing closeness, which can be confusing for patients and caregivers. She emphasized that raising health awareness contributes to increasing individual productivity and rationalizing medical expenditure.
Mayyas pointed out that this activity enabled faculty members and students to provide educational and health guidance particularly on the use of common medications for chronic diseases such as diabetes in its various forms, high blood pressure, thyroid diseases, blood thinners, and specific advice for pregnant women during Ramadan.
The activity included an educational lecture delivered by pharmacists Dr. Salam Al-Shanak and Dr. Afaf Khasaone about general guidelines for taking various medications and correcting some misconceptions that could affect fasting during Ramadan.
Additionally, the activity involved students from the college and members of the Training Committee providing health guidance and services including blood pressure and blood sugar measurements to the university community.
