This program was designed to allow young children in their growth period to directly experience the various functions of the health center and to naturally learn the importance of health management in daily life. In particular, the program was structured to provide practical help in forming healthy lifestyle habits through education and activities tailored to the children's level of understanding.
The participating children toured the health center, visiting the following departments in sequence: examination room, radiology room, vaccination room, physical therapy room, clinical pathology room, maternal and child health room, oral health room, fitness room, and health promotion room, where they learned about the roles and functions of each department.
In particular, in the oral health room, the children sat in a dental chair to experience the clinical environment firsthand and listened to explanations about the dental equipment on display, naturally learning the importance of oral health.
In the health promotion room, the children measured their height and weight using a body fat analyzer and learned about the necessity of healthy physical management. The infectious disease prevention education included a handwashing activity, which was conducted as an experiential session with rhythmic movements, increasing the children's engagement and participation.
County Governor Son Byeongbok said, "I hope this visit to the health center helped the children feel more familiar with the health center and develop habits to protect their own health. Uljin County will continue to operate a variety of experiential health programs for the healthy growth of the future generation."
