The Iloilo Provincial Health Office (PHO) recently conducted a series of health programs aimed at improving well-being and safety across local communities.
In Barangays Buenavista and Taminla, Dueñas, PHO’s “Toto-ong Serbisyo Dental & Bright Smile, Bright Future” initiative provided essential dental care to over 120 children, including members of the Ati community.
Alongside dental services, the program integrated nutrition, family planning, and X-ray screenings to deliver comprehensive care to the young residents.
In a parallel effort to improve nutrition advocacy, PHO hosted a seminar titled “Breastfeeding TSEK: Empowering Mothers and Families for Better Nutrition,” in Badiangan.
The event highlighted the importance of breastfeeding and family support in fostering healthier futures for mothers and children.
In Dingle, PHO partnered with the local Rural Health Unit (RHU) in conducting Food Safety and Sanitation Orientation for over 200 food handlers, emphasizing best practices in food handling to ensure the safety and quality of food services for the community.
These initiatives underline Iloilo PHO’s commitment to building a healthier, safer province through both preventive care and health education, enhancing the quality of life for all residents.
