1:1 Personalized Consultation Using Mobile App
Providing Metabolic Syndrome Management Service
The city of Guri, Gyeonggi Province (Mayor Baek Kyung-hyun) announced on the 29th that it will recruit 200 participants on a first-come, first-served basis for the Public Health Center's Mobile Healthcare Project from December 2 to 27 to prevent and manage metabolic syndrome for the promotion of citizens' health.
This project is designed to encourage improvement in participants' health status by providing customized health management services using a mobile app to individuals who have one or more health risk factors among five indicators: blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, waist circumference, triglycerides, and HDL-Cholesterol.
Eligible participants are adults aged 60 or younger who are not diagnosed with hypertension, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia, and who reside or work in Guri City.
Pre-registrants will receive a phone consultation and then visit the Public Health Center according to a scheduled appointment to undergo body measurements and basic health checkups. Only those selected as final participants will receive the project services.
Participants will be provided with three basic health checkups (initial, 3 months, and 6 months) and 1:1 customized health, nutrition, and exercise counseling services for 24 weeks. Those who consistently participate until the final checkup will receive a smart scale as a gift.
Kim Eun-joo, Director of the Public Health Center, stated, "We hope that citizens who find it difficult to visit the health center can manage their health anytime and anywhere through the mobile healthcare service," and added, "We will expand digital health management services tailored to each life cycle to create a city where all families are healthy."
