Peter and Company Distribution (PCD) Limited recently hosted activities in commemoration of World Health Day on April 7th 2021 as part of our ongoing “PCD Know Your Numbers Health and Wellness Community Outreach Program”. Given that the ethos of this program is to bring awareness to our communities on proper health and wellness management practices through products, education, screenings and tools, it was a fitting complement to this year’s World Health Day theme of equal access to vital health care.
Spearheaded by the Human Resource Department, with all Covid-19 protocols observed, Health Clinics were set up at PCD’s Sales and Distribution Centre, Cul-de-Sac, PCD Food Mart, Vieux Fort, PCD Food Mart, Bois D’Orange and Wet and Cold Express, Castries from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Over 178 customers and employees benefitted from these vital screenings, which are among the key health indicators we all need to measure and manage regularly to take charge of our health along with a balanced diet and regular exercise.
These clinics were manned by health professionals and afforded our customers and employees the opportunity to get their blood sugar and blood pressure levels checked.
Wellness Packages were also distributed to our team members throughout the organization consisting of fruit plates, granola, bars, water, Vitamin C sachets and other healthy snacks.
A series of Virtual Mental Health Sessions were also conducted with Ms. Francisca Plummer, BACP Accredited Psychotherapist under the theme: “Stress Management and Protecting Our Mental Health.” Four (4) very fortunate, randomly selected employees each received a complimentary follow-up, personal consultation with Dr. Francisca Plummer.
A virtual “Socacize” aerobic workout session was hosted by Regional Master Trainer Shani Victorin with the PCD Team for a truly well-rounded approach to physical and mental health and wellness.
