QCU Implements Risk Assessment for Students and Employees
Starting February 9, 2023, the Quezon City University (QCU) Medical and Dental Services Unit, in collaboration with the Quezon City Health Department, has launched a Risk Assessment program for students and employees. The goal of this initiative is to identify individuals at high risk of developing lifestyle-related diseases and provide them with preventive measures such as nutrition, physical activity, and smoking cessation.
The risk assessment will involve taking a detailed medical history and conducting various measurements, including body mass index (BMI), hip and waist circumferences, blood pressure, and random blood sugar tests. Those individuals identified as having lifestyle-related diseases will be enrolled in the Quezon City Health Department’s Non-Communicable Disease Prevention and Control Program. This will give them access to free maintenance medicines and regular health monitoring.
Here is the schedule for each campus:
– San Bartolome Campus: Thursday, 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM
– Batasan Campus: Monday and Tuesday, 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM
– San Francisco Campus: Thursday, 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM
