Mountain Province dialysis center starts full operations

Malacañang announced on Tuesday that the Mountain Province Dialysis Center at the Luis Hora Memorail Regional Hospital in Bauko, Mountain Province is “ now in full operation.”
Presidential Spokesperson Harry L. Roque, Jr. made the announcement in a press conference in Bondoc following the 47th Commencement Exercises of the Mountain Province State Polytechnic College (MPSPC).
Mr. Roque was the keynote speaker during the graduation ceremonies with the theme: “Sustaining Breakthroughs in Education: Realizing Ambisyon Natin 2040.”
“Patients in the province and the nearby towns of Ilocos Sur and Kalinga no longer need to go to Baguio City or La Trinidad for their dialysis treatment,” he added.
Mr. Roque said this is part of the effort of President Rodrigo R. Duterte’s administration “to provide the much-needed medical and health services to every Filipino.”
“Rest assured that the government will continuously work to improve its services, especially to the underserved and underprivileged members of our society,” he said. — Arjay L. Balinbin
