Nanming promotes construction of 'healthy communities'

Nanming district in Guiyang is advancing the development of "healthy communities" by enhancing health services to foster a culture of wellness and promote healthy living habits among residents.

To achieve this, Nanming has created the Guanghe Neighborhood Activity Center as part of its healthy aging project. The center offers a variety of activities, such as calligraphy, singing, dancing, fitness programs, health knowledge competitions, health consultations, and health lectures, to enrich the community's health-oriented lifestyle.

The center features a "health cabin" equipped with height and weight measuring devices, blood pressure monitors, blood glucose meters, and various free health education materials.

Nanming is also upgrading its community canteen services by implementing healthy eating strategies that promote balanced nutrition concepts and provide dietary guidance for individuals with chronic conditions.

The district relies on the International City Community Health Service Center to offer residents various healthcare services, including general medical consultations, traditional Chinese medicine, rehabilitation services, and electronic health records.

The district also implements a family doctor contracting system, conducts regular health check-ups, and manages follow-up care for residents.

Nanming emphasizes promoting health culture through continuous outreach initiatives, organizing regular knowledge-sharing sessions, free health consultations, and health education activities to enhance residents' understanding of health-related matters.
