HEALTH PROGRAM OF THE WROCŁAW COUNTY NOMINATED IN THE HEALTHY LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMPETITION
February 1, 2024
Wrocław County was nominated in the competition „"Healthy Local Government"” for being implemented by NZOZ Your Doctor tick-borne disease prevention program for 2023–2025. The competition for the best health program in Polish municipalities, counties and voivodeships is organized by PortalSamorzadowy.pl and Rynek Zdrowia magazine. We cordially encourage you to take part in the vote, which will last until February 12. You can vote here.
The tick-borne disease (Lyme disease) prevention program for residents of Wrocław County is aimed at people who have recently been bitten by ticks and have not undergone tests.
Previous participants of the program could report for consultations at NZOZ Twój Lekarz clinics free of charge and without a referral. Thanks to this, they had access to diagnostic tests and, if necessary, visits to an infectious disease specialist.
All participants of the program received educational materials on the prevention of tick-borne diseases along with access to a series of medical podcasts WHAT DOES YOUR DOCTOR SAY?. You can listen to podcast episodes on: Spotify and YouTube
The conversation touches on a key aspect of family medicine: the physician's role in health education and collaborative planning of next steps. The program doesn't end with diagnosis. Its goal is to create an individualized health plan and provide real support to the patient in changing their lifestyle.
The discussion focuses on the practical aspects of participating in the program – from the first step, choosing a primary care facility, through completing the questionnaire, to interpreting test results and the role of the family doctor. Particular emphasis is placed on the importance of cardiovascular disease prevention and the role of lifestyle in reducing health risks.
