NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Clinical Manager at the Kidney Center, Ashley Pinder, is urging Bahamians to schedule their annual checkups and complete necessary lab work, warning that far too many residents are now being treated for kidney failure.
His call to action is being echoed by Registered Dietitian Renecia Bain, who emphasized the importance of daily awareness when it comes to food and drink choices. Bain highlighted that diabetes ranks as the second leading chronic illness in The Bahamas, just behind hypertension.
Diagrams shown during the health initiative illustrated the organs most affected by these diseases, further underscoring the need for preventive care.
Meanwhile, the Cancer Society continues its long-standing work on Grand Bahama, serving as a pillar of support for cancer survivors, newly diagnosed patients, and their families throughout the treatment journey.
Despite the vital role the Cancer Society plays, representatives stress the ongoing need for a public oncology facility on the island, a gap in healthcare that still needs to be addressed.
Senator Russell noted that the health fair, part of a wider awareness campaign, will continue making its way throughout the island, bringing vital health services and information directly to the community.
