Health staff will be stationed at various locations, including the Port Launay Bus Terminal, Beau Vallon Police Station, the Baie Ste Anne Praslin Playground, North East Point Home for the Elderly and several others.
Patient safety is a serious global public health concern. Patient safety is the absence of preventable harm to a patient during the process of health care and reduction of risk of unnecessary harm associated with health care to an acceptable minimum. You are encouraged to speak up about patient safety to help prevent medical accidents and to reflect on areas of improvement.

Today is World Sexual Health Day.
“Sexuality Education for all: a bridge to sexual health” is the focus of this year’s World Sexual Health Day on 4 September 2019. This theme emphasises the need for comprehensive relationships and sexual health education for all.
In 2010, the World Association for Sexual Health (WAS) called on organizations to celebrate World Sexual Health Day on each September 4th. The first World Sexual Health Day was celebrated with the slogan “Let’s talk about it!” to start breaking fears and taboos surrounding sexuality.
Since then, World Sexual Health Day has been celebrated in 35 countries in a variety of ways, from round table discussions to conferences and art exhibitions.
Country organizers have taken WSHD activities to schools, media outlets, hospitals, libraries, universities, public squares, art halls, theatre groups, and so many more places.
Today we invite you to celebrate your Sexual Health and should it need a few tweaks, Visit your clinic for redress and advice.
