CHO SERVES 10 BARANGAYS

The City Health Office brought the Laging Dadamay Medical Missions to ten coastal barangays from March to May 2009, bringing the number of barangays served to 35.

Barangays served were Sawanga, San Vicente, Cabid-an, Gatbo, San Ramon, Bitan-o, Balogo (Bacon), Bon-ot, Osiao and Sto. Niño. In all, the medical missions directly benefited some 4,000 constituents.

Services brought by the CHO personnel direct to the barangays include medical consultation, dental examination and tooth extraction and dispensing of medicines. At least 35 health workers, complemented by barangay health workers, make up the Laging Dadamay workforce.

Started in November 2007, the medical outreach aims to promote the health and well-being of the Sorsoganons. Specifically, the project hopes to (1) provide community-based medical/dental consultations/treatment/attention in efforts to promote public health; (2) disseminate information on various health aspects, including environmental sanitation and cleanliness, STI-HIV/AIDS and nutrition to stem the outbreak of diseases; and (3) acquaint residents with the health programs of the Department of Health and the City Government/City Health Office as well as the intricacies and processes of the public health system

The City Health Office is set to conduct the second wave of medical missions for 2009 in July. The schedule is as follows: July 1, Sta. Cruz; July 8 Salvacion, West; July 15, Panlayaan; July 22 Almendras-Cogon; July 29 Macabog; August 5 San Lorenzo, Bibincahan; August 12 San Jose; August 19 Cabarbuhan and August 26 Buenavista, Bacon.
