Thursdays are for Throwbacks. Hence, we brought this back to you. sit back, relax, relearn and enjoy.

Asake Asake, congratulations my friend. I have missed you.

Asake: thanks Tola. I am grateful I guess.

Tola: Sup with you? You only call me "Tola" when you're down.

Asake: I am fine. Tola is your name too right?

Tola: now I am sure something is wrong.

*Baby starts crying*

Asake starts weeping uncontrollably, without making efforts to feed or pacify baby.

Tola: ( while petting the baby) My friend, please talk to me, what's going on?

Asake: I don't know how to explain it, but I feel depressed when I am supposed to be happy. I Feel worthless, hopeless and helpless. My husband has tried his best but he doesn't understand me.

Tola: you must be going through PostPartum Depression.

WHAT IS POST PARTUM DEPRESSION?

Postpartum depression (PPD) is a complex mix of physical, emotional, and behavioral changes that happen in some women after giving birth

Your body and mind go through many changes during and after pregnancy..

What should you do?

Pneumonia as pronounced(neemonia)

This is an infection that causes swelling of one or both lungs. It is caused by bacteria, fungi, or viruses in most cases.

As opposed to most people who attribute pneumonia to consuming cold foods or being exposed to cold. It is confirmed to be caused as a result of an infection, the most implicated is a bacteria known as Streptococcus pneumoniae.

This infection is life threatening but majorly in younger children and older individuals. A child or an adult with a weakened immune system may create a loop for the infection to occur and manifest.

Some of the symptoms of this infection may include;

Cough
Chest pain
Fever and chills
Difficulty in breathing

It is good news that this infection can be prevented by immunization, appropriate nutrition, and taking adequate environmental measures.

Once confirmed pneumonia is absolutely treatable. Pay attention to your health and that of those around you. Pneumonia is an infection that is preventable.

Each day is a new beginning.

A new week to keep grinding to be at the top of the mountain.

This new week, "Remember when you see a man at the top of a mountain, he didn't fall there".

It is only through years of consistency, diligence, hardwork, and of course the God factor.

It'll all fall in place soon 👍

Every 17th of September marks the world patient safety day. I bet you didn't know there was anything like that ☺️.

According to WHO, patients safety aims to prevent and reduce risk, errors and harm that occur to patients during provision of healthcare.

The main purpose of this is to promote patient safely by increasing the public awareness, engagement, and enhancing global understanding towards global solidarity and action.

As a patient you should know about your treatment plans.

It is not wrong for you to ask about your treatment options and the risk that may me associated any procedure to be performed on you.

You have a right to know why certain medications are prescribed and the possible side effects.

Your wellness is our priority 🥰🥰🥰. Know your rights and put it to good use.

This particular Wednesday is for our Scrub Nurses.

Amazing and diligent set of professionals. Thank you for setting up the operating room and ensuring all instruments are sterile. For handing over the appropriate instruments during a procedure, you're absolutely fantastic🤭.

If you've ever seen how these people carry the safety of their patients on their head, you'd agree with me that they are super incredible. Thank you for all that you do we love you❤️.
