Overview of the Healthy Living Campaign
In a significant move towards enhancing community wellness, the Direcția de Asistență Socială Baia Mare is spearheading a comprehensive healthy living campaign from September to October 2025. This initiative, led by specialists from the Serviciului Logistică Medicală Comunitară, aims to promote a healthier lifestyle among both children and adults.
Engaging Children in Healthy Habits
This week marked the commencement of interactive sessions where 20 children, beneficiaries of the social centers under the Direcția de Asistență Socială, engaged in learning activities focused on nutrition, rest, and daily physical activity. The campaign’s slogan, “Fii activ! Mănâncă sănătos” (Be active! Eat healthy), emphasizes the core message that a balanced lifestyle is essential for overall well-being.
Learning Through Interaction
These sessions are designed to be engaging and informative, helping children understand the importance of making healthy choices. Activities include practical demonstrations, fun exercises, and interactive discussions that not only impart knowledge but also inspire enthusiasm for healthy living.
Supporting Adults with Health Screenings
Alongside the children’s sessions, the campaign extends its reach to adults, with 60 individuals benefiting from free health screenings. Participants had the opportunity to get their blood glucose levels tested and blood pressure measured. These screenings are critical for early detection of potential health issues, providing valuable insights into personal health management.
Educational Presentations for Adults
In addition to the health screenings, adults participated in informative presentations offering practical recommendations for maintaining an active lifestyle. These presentations featured actionable tips on balanced nutrition and ways to incorporate physical activity into daily routines, empowering participants to make informed decisions regarding their health.
Encouraging Healthy Choices
To further support the journey towards healthier living, all participants—both children and adults—received wellness packages that included hygiene products and healthy food items. These packages are designed to encourage the continuation of healthy habits beyond the campaign, reinforcing the message that good health requires ongoing effort and commitment.
Community Impact and Awareness
This healthy living campaign represents a pivotal step in promoting preventive care and a healthier lifestyle within the Baia Mare community. By raising awareness about the importance of physical activity, balanced nutrition, and regular health check-ups, the initiative aims to foster a culture of health consciousness amongst residents.
Looking Forward
The Direcția de Asistență Socială Baia Mare’s efforts contribute not only to individual well-being but also to the overall health of the community. As more residents participate in such initiatives, the combined impact can lead to a healthier, more vibrant society.
