Health centers level up through BDO Foundation

Pototan, Iloilo”•Dr. Rodina Mondragon, municipal health officer of this town, has been looking for generous donors who would help improve the Pototan Rural Health Unit and Birthing Center.

Health centers level up through BDO Foundation
As part of its ongoing efforts to help improve the health and well-being of disadvantaged Filipinos, BDO Foundation recently rehabilitated rural health units in Iloilo, Negros Occidental and Aklan.

As a public health official, Mondragon was deeply concerned about the well-being of her constituents. She wanted their health facilities to level up so their nurses and midwives could serve the community better.

In dire need of rehabilitation, the health center was not an ideal place where health workers could provide the best patient care possible.

When she first learned that BDO Foundation was going to rehabilitate Pototan’s rural health unit, Dr. Mondragon was elated. With the rehabilitation work completed, her health workers are now able to provide high-quality healthcare services to the people.

“The rehabilitation of Pototan Rural Health Unit and Birthing Center motivates and reinvigorates us to address the healthcare needs of the community more effectively,” said Mondragon as she graciously accepted the health center during inaugural ceremonies led by BDO Foundation.

“On behalf of more than 70,000 Pototanons, I would like to thank you for rehabilitating our rural health unit. Rest assured we will take good care of this building,” the doctor said.

The project is “a great example of public-private partnership,” she added.

The rehabilitation included the improvement of its layout, waiting areas, offices, consultation rooms, clinics, and treatment rooms. It also included the provision of spaces for a children’s play area, waiting area for senior citizens, breastfeeding area for mothers and babies, and access for persons with disabilities. New furniture and fixtures were also provided.

The health center is one of the projects recently completed by BDO Foundation as part of its ongoing efforts to help improve the healthcare delivery system in the Philippines.

The corporate social responsibility arm of BDO Unibank has also renovated the Toboso Municipal Health Office in Negros Occidental as well as Banga Health Center Annex—Animal Bite Treatment Center and Clinical Laboratory in Aklan.

The newly rehabilitated facilities were turned over to local officials by BDO Foundation president Mario Deriquito and BDO Foundation program director Rose Espinosa, together with officers of BDO and One Network Bank branches.
