Visitors are invited to stop by Hall 5, where the Department has set up a dedicated exhibition area to provide comprehensive health services and share vital health information with the public. This initiative aligns with the Department’s commitment to strengthening health promotion and prevention through community engagement.

Attendees will have access to a variety of services including comprehensive health screening, HIV services, PrEP, TB screening, family planning, pap smear, immunisation, hypertension and diabetes screening, flu vaccination, and other general health promotion activities.

Gauteng Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and Forensic Medical Services will also showcase state-of-the-art medical equipment and vehicles, giving visitors a behind-the-scenes look at some of the essential work carried out by frontline teams. In addition, the Department will highlight career and training opportunities in the health sector, encouraging young people and job seekers to consider healthcare as a viable and impactful profession.

This year’s exhibition is themed around exposing efforts of the department to deliver world-class health infrastructure and technology while also emphasising the #AsibeHealthyGP campaign, which seeks to empower residents with knowledge and services to lead healthier lifestyles.
