THE Department of Health (DOH) is set to construct a Super Health Center in Malasag, Barangay Cugman as part of its continuing efforts to strengthen the delivery of primary healthcare services to local communities.
This, as the 21st City Council headed by Vice Mayor Bebot Rodriguez enacted an ordinance declaring the 500 square meters city-owned property as site for the establishment of the proposed Super Health Center.
The project will be implemented by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) and is identified as a priority public health infrastructure initiative funded by the DOH.
Once completed, the facility is expected to improve access to quality and comprehensive healthcare services for residents, particularly those in underserved areas.
Legislators welcomed the initiative, emphasizing that the new facility will help decongest existing health centers while bringing essential medical services closer to the community.
The Super Health Center will provide expanded primary care services, including medical consultations, maternal and child healthcare, immunization, laboratory services, pharmacy, and other preventive and promotive health programs. (JBD/SP)
