On World COPD Day, we stand with the global health community to raise awareness about Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

COPD is preventable and manageable when detected early. As a training institution for healthcare professionals, we remain committed to promoting education, awareness, and advocacy for better respiratory health.
Let us continue to champion prevention, early intervention, and support for individuals affected by COPD.
Together, we breathe easier.

Today, we join the global community in marking WORLD ANTIMICROBIAL AWARENESS WEEK, a call to action to preserve the power of antimicrobial medicines.

Antimicrobial resistance threatens healthcare worldwide, but with awareness, proper use of medications, and strong infection-control practices, we can prevent its spread.

At IHS&T UBTH, we continue to educate and equip the next generation of healthcare professionals to promote safe, responsible, and evidence-based antimicrobial practices.
Handle With Care — Protect Our Future.

WORLD ANTIMICROBIAL AWARENESS WEEK reminds us of our responsibility as future nurses and healthcare leaders to promote the safe and responsible use of antibiotics.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global threat but together, through proper hygiene, infection prevention, and responsible medication practices, we can protect the effectiveness of life-saving treatments.

At the College of Nursing, UBTH, we remain committed to training nurses who champion global health and patient safety.
