ALULA: AlUla Healthcare Center has launched its Check Your Health campaign to raise awareness and encourage members of the community to undergo preventive screenings to aid the early detection of issues.

The initiative aims to reinforce the concept of prevention over treatment while maintaining community health.

The launch was attended by Talal bin Faris Al-Faqir, deputy governor of AlUla; Dr. Bayan Al-Ahmadi, director of Prince Abdulmohsen Hospital; and a number of representatives from government agencies, along with local residents.

The initiative targets residents, visitors, and citizens by offering 10 essential preventive screenings. These enable beneficiaries to monitor health, helping with the diagnosis of disease in its early stages and managing the issue proactively through a comprehensive package of approved tests.

Tests include an assessment of cholesterol, blood pressure measurement, heart rate and blood oxygen saturation measurement, body mass index, fasting blood sugar test, HbA1c test, total cholesterol test, LDL cholesterol assessment, and a test for triglycerides.

The campaign is being launched during Ramadan to encourage healthy practices at a time when members of the community can visit primary healthcare centers.
