Volunteer nurse Julian and community volunteer William assisted Christine and Ruth in conducting the event. Over 85 people were in attendance. The sessions involved a review of Reach’s Community Awareness RHD flipchart which generated much conversation among the attendees. One attendee disclosed that they had stopped taking prescribed medications for a heart condition. Others talked about taking herbal treatments for their sore throat symptoms. One young boy described possible signs of RHD. \nThese discussions created the opportunity for FAAYO members to spread health messages to always seek proper treatment and always take and finish full doses of prescribed medications from healthcare personnel – even if they feel better after the first days of taking the medicine. Attendees were encouraged to visit the hospital to see a physician if inflamed tonsils and fevers are persistent. \n  \nOutreach Photos \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n  \n  \n  URL:https://faayocommunity.org/index.php/event/community-outreach-at-bujumbura-hill-hoima-district/ LOCATION:Bujumbura \,Hoima District\, Uganda CATEGORIES:Community ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://faayocommunity.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Bujumbura-Hill-Group-Photo-3.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20220828 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20220829 DTSTAMP:20261011T062101 CREATED:20230328T105825Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230413T162050Z UID:2805-1661644800-1661731199@faayocommunity.org SUMMARY:Patient Home Visit to Kinogozi Village DESCRIPTION:Founding member Christine made a follow-up home visit to the home of an 8-year-old girl who is on the Uganda Heart Institute surgical waiting list.
