Today, on World No To***co Day, the Papua New Guinea Cancer Foundation stands with communities across the country to call time on to***co. To***co use is responsible for about 12% of deaths in PNG and significantly raises the risk of cancers of the lung, mouth, throat, oesophagus and bladder, as well as heart disease and chronic respiratory illness. Early exposure and youth experimentation make lifelong addiction and future disease more likely, so prevention must start young.
The PNG Cancer Foundation focuses on primary prevention, raising awareness about to***co’s link to cancer, and promoting early detection by encouraging people to attend screening services. We deliver education programs in schools, communities and workplaces to prevent uptake, provide information to support quitting, and run public campaigns to change social norms. We also advocate for stronger to***co-control policies to protect public health and reduce cancer rates.
Quit today or help someone quit. Protect our children by keeping to***co out of schools and homes, get screened if you’re at risk, and share this message to save lives. For more information about our programs and screening locations, contact the Papua New Guinea Cancer Foundation.

Too much time spent indoors and intensive near vision activity lead to more children suffering from nearsightedness or myopia.

Taking regular breaks and spending more time outdoors can reduce this risk. Get regular eye checks!

🚑💚 Meet Our Ambulance Team

As part of introducing you to the faces behind the uniform, today we’re shining a light on our amazing Health Extension Officers (HEOs).

Our Green Angels HEOs are an important part of the clinical ambulance team. They support community health, provide basic treatment and health education, and help strengthen the connection between communities and emergency services.

Before joining ambulance operations, every HEO completes specialist Ambulance Responder training at the National Ambulance Education College (NAEC), where they receive advanced training in life support, critical care, and aeromedical retrieval.

You’ll recognise them by the initials “HEO” displayed on their epaulets 💚

So next time you meet one of our dedicated HEOs and team, say hello and thank them for the incredible work they do every day to care for our communities when help is needed most.
