Health
A doctor and a nurse take charge in Bilfen Primary Schools who can provide the first respond in case of a health problem in our students. Our infirmaries are sufficiently equipped to respond to complaints of our students in any health problem.
Our students are referred to the infirmary by the vice principal if they have a health problem. After the required response is provided in the infirmary, firstly the involved vice principal and then the parents are informed.
Nutrition
In our schools, breakfasts, lunches and all offerings are prepared by Biltur Catering. Biltur Catering (www.bilturcatering.com) has been founded within the scope of Bilfen and aims at cooking quality and healthy foods for students in compliance with the rules of hygiene. The menus which are subjected to calorie calculation by dietitians and quality control officers are approved by the school doctor as well and then offered to students.
Hygiene
Attaching importance to students' health, Bilfen Schools pay attention to hygiene activities in our schools. These activities are carried out under the supervision of Prof Dr Yasar Keskin, the Public Health Specialist and lecturer in Marmara University. Microbiological samples are taken from all critical points and examined accordingly within the scope of the activities conducted in compliance with the HACCP rules (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point).
