GREENE JR.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><strong>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>The Liberia Insurance Association (LIA), in partnership with Wellness Partners Clinic (WPC), has launched a community health screening and vaccination campaign in Monrovia.<\/p>\n<p>The initiative, which was held recently at the WPC compound in Monrovia, was intended to address COVID concerns in the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to let you know that we care about you people,\u201d Dr. Nicole Cooper, WPC Medical Director, said at the launch of the event. \u201cThrough this campaign, we want to reach out to the communities for them to know that as Insurance Companies and a Clinic, we do care about them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The campaign highlights the importance of health insurance and how it is cardinal for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Cooper disclosed that health insurance exists to make sure people know how to access care and can consistently access that care financially when they need to.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHealth insurance is something that is important to the LIA and WPC and is also important to the community, she said. \u201cThat is why, right now, we are coming together to bring health screening as well as follow-up COVID vaccination and verification activities into communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot everybody got vaccinated at the beginning. Some get vaccinated with one type of vaccine and never get the second dose. Some get their second dose but never get their booster, and some are vaccinated but never get their vaccine certificate,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The services through the health screening initiative, Cooper noted, are going to be free of charge for the communities, and \u201cWe are very grateful to the LIA and Africa Reed for funding the project to allow us to come into the communities to render these services.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The screening initiative could be compared to a mop-up exercise, as it intends to do follow-ups that are needed.<\/p>\n<p>Saye D. Gbalazeh, president of LIA, indicated that by cooperating on social responsibility, the initiative is to ensure how business people can integrate themselves into communities other than making profits.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCompanies can get involved in environmental concerns,\u201d he said. \u201cSo, as companies, in order to just make profit, what do we do with our social responsibilities? Are we engaged in public health promotion? Are we involved with environmental concerns? Are we involved with health issues?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd the saying goes that charity begins at home, so if charity begins at home, we need to ask ourselves these questions: how do we as companies take care of our employees internally before being concerned about the outside world?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He further said that corporate responsibilities are very broad and have to do with internal and external responsibilities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, the Liberia Insurance Association did write a project proposal and submit it to Africa Reed, who reviewed it, and then our proposal was approved,\u201d Gbalazeh explained.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the LIA president said they have received US$20,000 as an association to implement this project, and \u201cwe couldn\u2019t have been successful in writing this proposal without the help of Dr. Nicole Cooper of Wellness Partners Clinic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He informed the body that the money had to be used for the purpose for which it was given, which was for COVID education, COVID vaccination, and the children\u2019s vaccination.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CLAUDIUS T.
