PUERTO GALERA – Department of Health Officer-in-Charge Secretary Dr. Maria Rosario Singh-Vergeire visited Puerto Galera Hospital in a bid to elevate its classification from an infirmary to a level 1 hospital.
In post in Puerto Galera’s Facebook page, Vergeire was accompanied by Undersecretary Nestor Santiago Jr., Undersecretary Carolina Vidal-Taino, MIMAROPA CHD Regional Director Dr. Mario Baguilod, and Puerto Galera Mayor Rocky Ilagan during the February 2 visit.
“Nawa’y magpatuloy po ang ating magandang serbisyo sa taumbayan na mayroong pusong maalaga at pagmamahal para sa mas malusog at produktibong mamamayan. Isa pa lamang ito sa napakarami pa nating planong tutuparin bilang pagtugon sa mga pangangailangang pangkalusugan ng ating mga kababayan – hindi lamang sa Mindoro kung hindi saan mang bahagi ng bansa. Let us unite under the banner of Universal Health Care, and collectively realize our goal of a Philippines where quality healthcare is afforded to all,” Vergeire said.
