Makati Medical Center won three Silver Anvil Awards at the 61st Anvil Awards organized by the Public Relations Society of the Philippines, recognizing its employee engagement, digital innovation, and advocacy initiatives.
The awards ceremony, themed “The 61st Second: Pushing Past Possibilities,” was held on Jan. 28 and honored public relations programs from across the country.
Under the Public Relations Programs–Employee Engagement category, MakatiMed received a Silver Anvil for its Gabay 2.0 Mental Health and Wellness Program. The institutionalized initiative provides ongoing mental health support for hospital employees through psychological consultations, mindful interventions, and psychosocial support training.
MakatiMed also earned a Silver Anvil under Marketing and Brand Communication for its QR Code Scheduling: Digital Innovation for Patient Convenience Program. The mobile-accessible system streamlines outpatient procedure bookings and has posted steady adoption, with an average conversion rate of 83 percent, supporting the hospital’s digital efforts focused on patient access.
Completing the wins was the Red Light Project, which received a Silver Anvil under Advocacy, Public Awareness, and Cause-Related Programs. Led by the Hematology Section and the Hospital Blood Transfusion Committee, the initiative uses red lights atop the MakatiMed building to signal critically low blood supply levels and encourage timely blood donations.
The recognitions highlight MakatiMed’s initiatives aimed at employee well-being, patient convenience, and public awareness programs with community impact.
