Emirates ID organizes campaign to check blood pressure and diabetes of employees

Sunday 25 December 2011

The Public Relation and Marketing Section at the Emirates Identity Authority, in co-operation with Al Noor Hospital, has organized a campaign to check blood pressure and diabetes of the Emirates Identity Authority’s employees working in its head office in Abu Dhabi. Around 80 per cent of the total number of employees applied for the tests.

The Emirates Identity Authority’s Higher management was keen on participating in the campaign to encourage employees to conduct medical examinations and follow up their health conditions regularly. H.E. Dr. Eng. Ali Mohamed Al Khouri, Emirates ID Director General, and a number of executive directors participated in the campaign.

The campaign, which will be also held in all the Emirates Identity Authority-affiliated registration centers across the UAE, was organized as part of the Public Relations and Marketing Section’s health and preventive initiatives to promote the principle of “a stitch in time saves nine” in conjunction with the World Diabetes Day.
