Health Outreach to a Nursing Home: Head of Department Wu Chaobo Delivers a Warm Lecture on Cancer Prevention
Sharing the warmth of winter and accompanying health. To further improve the health awareness of older adults, on the morning of November 13, Dr. Wu Chaobo, Head of the No. 2 Treatment Area of our hospital, went to the nursing home to give a heartfelt public science lecture on cancer prevention, turning specialized medical knowledge into warm daily care. The lecture aimed to help the elderly understand cancer scientifically and build a health concept of “prevention early, detection early, treatment early.”
Taking into account the reading habits and comprehension abilities of older adults, Head Wu used easy-to-understand language, combined with life-related analogies, to gently convey complex medical knowledge. He especially emphasized the early signs of common cancers in older adults and reminded everyone to pay attention to small changes in the body. At the same time, he offered many specific and practical suggestions on how to prevent cancer scientifically through a balanced diet, appropriate exercise, regular health checkups, and a positive outlook.
“So there is so much knowledge in everyday meals!” “A good mindset really is very important!” Throughout the lecture, the elderly participants frequently nodded and actively interacted with Head Wu.
Actively moving forward and expanding high-quality medical resources and public health education services beyond the hospital is a social responsibility that our hospital has consistently upheld over the years. We firmly believe that bringing specialized cancer prevention knowledge closer to the public in a more accessible way is a key link in improving health literacy for the whole population. In the future, the hospital will continue to uphold this philosophy, organize more diverse and in-depth community health activities, and use practical actions to safeguard the health and well-being of the people, contributing to the development of an increasingly comprehensive community health protection network.
