The goal is to discuss health in a lively and friendly environment, chosen for its accessibility. A dedicated stall, branded with the town hall's colors, will be set up. Each session will focus on a different theme, inspired by national campaigns, and will be suitable for all ages. Topics will include smoking cessation, vaccination (including against HPV), and cancer prevention.
The municipality will collaborate with the Territorial Professional Health Community (CPTS Sud Ard’Drôm) for theme selection over the next six months. In January, a stall will be dedicated to diabetes.
The advanced practice nurse from the Municipal Health Center, Huguette Bayet, will be central to this project, supported by the town's doctors and the Head of the Center, Audrey Antoinat, depending on the topics covered. This initiative follows the flu vaccination campaign conducted in November for municipal employees.
“"We don't want to wait for residents to get sick to talk to them about health. We want to act proactively, reach out to them, and empower them to take care of themselves."
The first event will take place on Tuesday, November 17th, focusing on 'Mois sans tabac' (No Smoking Month). The nurse will engage with the public about the risks of smoking and present solutions for quitting, in a supportive and non-judgmental manner. A participatory motivation wall will also be set up.
