🧼🖐️👣👄 July is Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) Awareness Month!

Moms and Dads, let’s work together to keep our children safe and healthy! HFMD is a highly contagious illness that commonly affects young kids—and it can spread quickly in homes, schools, and daycare centers.

✅ Make it a habit to wash hands with soap and clean water or use an alcohol-based sanitizer
🚫 Remind children to avoid touching their eyes, nose, and mouth
🧽 Regularly clean and disinfect toys, tables, and other commonly touched items

Let’s stay alert and take preventive steps to stop the spread of HFMD. Prevention is the best protection! 💪👶

"𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀: 𝗔 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁"

We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined us at the Mental Health Awareness Talk held last June 30, 2025, at the Sports Palace. Organized by the UNC Health Services Department, this event was more than just a gathering — it was a step forward in fostering a culture of empathy, openness, and support within our community. 💖

Our guest speaker, Dr. Marylendra A. Penetrante, delivered an insightful and empowering talk that resonated deeply with students and employees alike. Her message reminded us that mental health is not a weakness, but a vital part of our overall well-being, equally important as our physical health. She addressed real-life challenges, shared coping strategies, and encouraged everyone to speak up, seek help, and support one another.

The session was filled with thoughtful conversations, moments of reflection, and a renewed commitment to break the stigma surrounding mental health. 🙌✨

We are proud to see the UNC community come together to learn, listen, and grow. Let this be a reminder that you are not alone, and that reaching out is a sign of strength.

💚 Let’s continue to prioritize mental wellness — in ourselves, in our families, in our campus.
Together, we can build a more compassionate, understanding, and mentally healthy community.

For any questions or support, feel free to reach out to us at unc.medicaldental@unc.edu.ph or visit UNC Health Services.
