HEALTH TIP!

The National Security Officers Foundation (NSOF) in associa-

tion with the Making Life Important (MLI) Programme hosted

a Medical Clinic for National Security Officers at the Cha-

guaramas Convention Centre on June 25, 2013.

This event was hosted with the support of the Ministry of

Health, the North-West Regional Health Authority, the Office

of Disaster Preparedness and Management (ODPM), a team of

local Dentists and local pharmaceutical distributors.

The Medical Clinic comprised doctors with various specializa-

tions and medical practitioners from Missions to the World.

The intention of this Medical Clinic was to provide an oppor-

tunity for NSOF to show its commitment to the health and well

-fare of National Security Officers, in recognition of the signif-

icant role that they play in protecting life and property in the

normal course of their duties, and the ultimate sacrifice that

they make.

A total of 240 National Security Officers attended the clinic

from among the under mentioned Agencies:

Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force
