Health Symposium
Participating in the health symposium was great practice for education of patients with different conditions. At this symposium we spoke to a wide audience and we focused on breast health, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and menopause. We also touched on some men’s health subjects like prostate cancer and on nutritional modifications that could be made to specifically to the Grenadian diet. During the symposium, we answered questions and conversed with our interactive audience. Following this we took the attendees blood pressure and blood glucose and got the chance to speak to them individually about the topics presented at the symposium. We also were blessed with the opportunity to eat some porridge with them before we left. I personally enjoyed the fact that the people in Grenada were so interested and open to being educated about their health, it made it so enjoyable to teach them. Health is a subject that is extremely important and applicable to daily life and was greatly valued by all Grenadian people.
