September 29, 2024, marks World Heart Day with the slogan “Take care of your heart, take care of your life.”
World Heart Day, in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), is observed in more than 90 countries. On this day, educational campaigns are organized to raise awareness and educate people about cardiovascular health. These campaigns aim to teach people how to maintain heart health through a healthy lifestyle, eating nutritious and safe foods, and staying physically active to care for their hearts and overall well-being.
In this regard, the Iranian Psychiatric Hospital plans to contribute by providing educational resources at the hospital’s health center, including educational films for visitor awareness and educational pamphlets, and by referring patients to specialists in the field.
Educational liaisons in the clinical departments will also offer necessary training to families and patients.
