Sensory course and much more
A highlight of our open day was the sensory course. Here the visitors could experience at first hand which organs enable us to communicate and how they function. At the stations of the course, they could get to know their sense of smell, taste and hearing or a new “language”: Braille. In a video consultation, you could ask a doctor medical questions live.
In the prevention bus of the Berlin Charité, visitors could have their vaccination records checked on Saturday to find out whether important vaccinations need to be caught up on or refreshed. In addition, the Johanniter and the Diabetes-Mobile offered a health check and the UPD-Mobile offered personal patient advice.
