At Manipal Hospital Dhakuria, a senior awareness program was held recently. Everyone received a health examination as part of the program, and Dr. Aritra Roy, an orthopaedic consultant, then provided an orthopaedic consultation. To give all citizens a place to ask questions about health and wellness, a health talk session was held.

The session was presided over by Dr. Avijit Bhattacharya, HOD Internal Medicine, and Dr. Amitabha Ghosh, Consultant- General & Laparoscopic Surgeon.

Following a Q&A session, doctors shared their knowledge on wellness, a balanced and healthy diet, the value of good sleep, and a healthy lifestyle. Everyone in the community had the chance to learn more about leading a healthy lifestyle during the Q&A session.

“A knowledge session for senior citizens will spread awareness among them. A healthy lifestyle is crucial in today’s fast-paced life.” In the future, our committed group of physicians and staff at Manipal Hospital will organise more awareness events,” said Mr. Dilip Roy, Director of Manipal Hospital Dhakuria.

The program, which started with a nutritious breakfast and continued with lunch and a tea break, involved about 56 senior citizens.
