The university\u2019s efforts to support healthy living practices are crucial, as they can help individuals lead happier, more productive lives and contribute to the overall success of the university community. I encourage everyone to take charge of their health and embrace preventative measures,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>One of the participants said, \u201cI am so grateful to Academic City for organising this free health screening. It gave me the opportunity to check my health status and get advice on how to maintain a healthy lifestyle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The university has previously organised wellness seminars and other health-related events. The free health screening event is just one of the many initiatives undertaken by the university to promote health in the local community.
