Zulekha Hospital hosts Cardiology Conference

In celebration of ‘World Heart Day’ on September 29, Zulekha Hospital has organised multiple activities to raise awareness on cardiac health and encourage people to address cardiovascular diseases in time.

Observing the month as a ‘Cardiac Care Month’, the hospital is offering affordable health checks and complimentary consultations with experts in addition to hosting webinars and corporate talks.

The hospital also hosted a Cardiology Conference on Friday to highlight the criticality, complicated cases and treatment advancements in cardiology and cardiology surgeries.

During the conference, frontline staff from the Dubai Corporation for Ambulance Services (DCAS) and American Heart Association (AHA) were honoured for their commitment as first responders and their support in the ‘Save Hearts’ initiative.

The initiative is the hospital’s continuous awareness programme that offers cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training to residents.

With the support of certified trainers from DCAS, AHA and Zulekha, the hospital has hosted CPR training sessions across multiple mosques, government offices, schools, colleges, sports clubs and other corporate and public gatherings.
