💙 World Diabetes Day

Diabetes affects millions of South Africans - but with awareness, lifestyle changes, and regular check-ups, it can be managed and even prevented.

Today, let’s commit to empowering ourselves and others with the knowledge needed to protect our health. Together, we can turn awareness into action.

🌍 World Pneumonia Day | 12 November

Together for Prevention, Protection, and Quality Care

Pneumonia remains one of the world’s leading causes of death in children and vulnerable adults — yet it’s both preventable and treatable with timely care.

This World Pneumonia Day, the National Hospital Network (NHN) and its member hospitals stand united in raising awareness and strengthening early detection and prevention efforts across South Africa.

💙 Let’s protect our communities by:
✅ Promoting vaccination and preventive care.
✅ Recognising the early signs and seeking medical attention quickly.
✅ Practising good hygiene and protecting those most at risk.

Every breath matters — and together, we can save lives.

“Only overweight people get diabetes.”

Truth: Anyone can develop diabetes, regardless of weight. Genetics, lifestyle, and age also play a role.

Know the risks. Don’t assume. Get tested.

“Prevention starts with awareness.”

Diabetes often shows no early symptoms - yet left undiagnosed, it causes lifelong complications.

Schedule a simple screening at your nearest NHN hospital.
