SRM Trichy College of Nursing organized a “World Arthritis Day” program on October 14, 2024, at TSRMMCH&RC (orthopedic outpatient department). The day aims to raise awareness about arthritis and provide essential health education to orthopedic patients, empowering them with knowledge about management, prevention, and treatment options. The program was scheduled from 10:00 am to 11:00 am. Ms. Thanusika and Ms. Arundhati, B.Sc.(N) III Year, delivered health talk on definition, causes, signs, and symptoms, treatment, management, and preventive measures of arthritis through flashcard. The health education session for World Arthritis Day successfully raised awareness about arthritis among orthopaedic patients. Both students found the experience rewarding and expressed interest in organizing similar events in the future. All the participants cooperated well throughout the program.
