The Diabetes Mellitus Awareness session was successfully conducted by Dr. Yousra for our Year 3 and 4 students on 30th November 2023. It increased awareness and understanding of what diabetes is, its causes, and how it affects individuals on a daily basis. Dr. Yousra also emphasized on the importance of a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular physical activity, in preventing and managing diabetes. The session not only addressed misconceptions and reduce stigma associated with diabetes but also encouraged a supportive and inclusive environment for students with diabetes. The session contributed to creating a more informed, supportive, and inclusive school community. It covered what is Diabetes Mellitus Type 1, symptoms of Diabetes, prevention/treatment and how to support a Diabetic patient, along with a nice video to summarize the session using simple information for children to understand.
