An approach for better nutrition

As part of the ‘National Nutrition Week’, which was celebrated from September 1 to 7, Care Outpatient Centre and Care College of Nursing organised an awareness programme in Banjara Hills on Wednesday. The event was themed ‘Healthy eating choices for a healthier nation’.

On the occasion, students of the Nursing College made an exhibition stall and conveyed the message to people about how they can be aware of their food groups and balanced diet from which they can get good nutritious things.

They prepared posters, charts and models to convey the theme. More than 300 members attended the exhibition including consultants, staff, patients and their family members. Efforts made by the students faculty members and administration were highly appreciated.”
