ABOUT EVENT
The 2019 W Health screenings were planned as a part of the W Health Month Campaign which was aimed at improving community awareness on health issues that affect women and their families by bridging knowledge gap, providing access to health checks and encouraging healthy lifestyle habits.
Slated to run all through the month of October, the W Health Month focused on key areas affecting women such as infertility, endometriosis, vesicovaginal fistula (VVF), cancer, maternal and neo-natal mortality.
The W Health screenings like the name states involved designing free health screening centers in numerous locations and states across Nigeria. These screenings allowed women to come in and obtain health and wellness checks (including checks for the 5 focus issues of the W Health month) at no charge at all and were held every Tuesday in the month of October.
