Top stories from Fakeeh University Hospital - July 2022

Dear All,

Hope everyone is having a great Summer.

Here are some July updates from our end at Fakeeh University Hospital .?

We are not just a tertiary care hospital, but also an academically-driven organization, focused on continuous learning. It helps us improve patient outcomes. Hence, to enhance the learning curve, FUH's healthcare professionals dedicatedly involve themselves in continuous learning. As a part of this, we have started the FUH Grand Rounds initiative. It focuses on cross-functional knowledge sharing to elevate our standards of care.

Further, we don't limit health education only to professionals. Our social community is changing, and so has parenting. It is no longer just the role of a mum, but a father is equally involved in the journey. We recognize this fact, and thus, to assist new fathers, and as a part of our community engagement program, we partnered with Mother, Baby & Child Magazine for all Dads-to-be.

Serving the community is one of the most important priority areas of Fakeeh University Hospital. In this effort, we regularly meet the society where they are, and reach them in the comfort of their own surroundings.

Each month, we organize the FUH Life Café session, every third Wednesday. We love to see a great turnout at every such session, which encourages us to keep going. Through these sessions we aim to create a support group for new mums with babies less than 1 year of age to share their experiences, discuss their concerns and more. The session in July focused on the subject of weaning, where the mums were happy to receive useful information and also interact with other mums.
