In July, HPH employees showed their commitment to making a difference in the community by taking part in a community workday held by Malama Maunalua, where they removed invasive algae from Paiko Beach. Employees representing all HPH Oahu facilities across various departments participated, including several members of the leadership team. “It was a great day to clean up Maunalua Bay! I never thought pulling stinky, slimy, invasive seaweed would be so satisfying,” said Lorrie Luke, HPH vice president of contracting. “The best part was getting to know more of our HPH team, their families and others in the community.” Healthier happens together when our employees have the opportunity to participate in vital projects like this to care for the land and the community! 💙 #HPHOhana #HealthierHawaii Learn about other ways HPH partners with the community: https://bit.ly/3YPwySv

It is highly commendable of Dr Toyin Akande-Ajala CCST(Geriatrics/ Internal Medicine) for bringing Geriatrics medicine in first class way to Nigeria for the seniors. With my experience in Homecare, and having an elderly mum, I Know this is a neglected area of healthcare that we do not talk much about. Geriatrics healthcare focuses on the medical care and well-being of older adults, addressing the unique challenges and health considerations that come with aging. Here are some benefits of geriatrics healthcare for seniors. Geriatric healthcare professionals are trained to understand and manage the health issues commonly associated with aging, such as chronic conditions, cognitive decline, and mobility issues. They do comprehensive Health Assessments, preventive Care as we all know that Geriatrics healthcare places a strong emphasis on preventive measures, including vaccinations, screenings, and lifestyle interventions to maintain and improve the health of older adults. Another aspect is Medication Management because the older adults often take multiple medications for various health conditions. Geriatric healthcare providers are skilled in managing medication regimens to avoid adverse interactions and ensure optimal therapeutic outcomes. Fall Prevention, Cognitive Health, Pain Management due to chronic pain is common among seniors. Geriatric healthcare providers work to manage pain effectively, considering the unique needs and sensitivities of older individuals. End-of-life Care and Advanced Care Planning: Geriatrics healthcare often includes discussions about end-of-life care preferences, advanced care planning, and the management of chronic illnesses in the context of the individual's overall life goals and values. Rehabilitation Services: Geriatrics healthcare may involve rehabilitation services, such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, to help seniors maintain or regain their independence and functional abilities. Nutritional Support: Geriatric healthcare providers address nutritional needs, ensuring that seniors receive appropriate dietary guidance to support overall health and manage conditions such as malnutrition or obesity. Social Support: Recognizing the importance of social connections for mental and emotional well-being, geriatrics healthcare often involves coordination with social workers and community resources to address social isolation and loneliness. Home-Based Care: Geriatrics healthcare may include home-based services to make healthcare more accessible for seniors, particularly those with mobility challenges. This can include home health visits, telehealth consultations, and assistance with activities of daily living. Lastly, geriatrics healthcare offers a tailored and holistic approach to address the unique healthcare needs of seniors, promoting optimal physical, mental, and social well-being as individuals age. Thank you to Dr Toyin Akande-Ajala CCST(Geriatrics/ Internal Medicine)

As our continuous effort in reducing the prevalence of stunting, Tanoto Foundation has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Pakpak Bharat City Government. "Based on the 2021 Indonesia Nutrition Status Survey, the prevalence of stunting in Pakpak Bharat Regency was 40.8%. This is significantly higher compared to the World Health Organization benchmark of 20%, although we have successfully reduced this figure to 30.8% in 2022. The MoU and collaboration agreement that we will sign will further strengthen our commitment to accelerating the reduction of stunting," said Regent Franc Bernhard Tumanggor. Margaretha Ari Widowati, Director of Learning Environment Development Program at Tanoto Foundation, added that this collaboration is a manifestation of Tanoto Foundation's efforts to support the second pillar of the national strategy for accelerating the reduction of stunting, namely the enhancement of Behavior Change Communication (BCC) and community empowerment. "In the next year, the programs that we will implement through this partnership include promoting the convergence action in villages, participating in stunting discussions at the village and district levels, strengthening the capacity of Family Assistance Teams (TPK), facilitating TPK forums, and monitoring their implementation at the district level." #TanotoFoundation #PakpakBharat #Stunting #StuntingPrevention #StuntingReduction #NorthSumatra #EarlyChildhoodEducationAndDevelopment #ECED #BasicEducation

Which is better: monogamy or non-monogamy? Monogamy and non-monogamy each have their own variables and values. Both paths offer unique journeys, but it’s crucial to set agreements and healthy boundaries with everyone involved. Committing to monogamy can bring deep connection, as it embraces the depth of a single relationship rather than seeking novelty elsewhere. 👩❤️👨 #RelationshipChoices #HealthyBoundaries #Monogamy #NonMonogamy
