Last time we wrote, we shared a video with you on Project HOPE India’s diabetes and hypertension prevention program, Project UDAY. The program is working to provide comprehensive diabetes and hypertension prevention by increasing the capacity of providers, improving patient care and education, improving public knowledge and awareness as well as utilizing mHealth technologies to have a great reach and improve prevention and control.
The program has created and implemented a comprehensive training manual on NCDs for community health workers and government health care workers. The training sessions have been lively and interactive while integrating practical experiences into the discussion. Participants engaged in activities such as role plays, analyzing case studies, games, field visits, peer support and peer evaluation. To-date, 140 community health care workers and 90 dedicated project staff have been participated, increasing their skills and capacity to provide education, screening and care to those with or at-risk of developing diabetes and hypertension.
This work has been possible thanks to your support! Stay tuned for more updates on this program as Project UDAY continues to develop.
