LGU-DAGUPAN SIGNS MOA WITH DOJ, PNP, R1MC TO STOP DOMESTIC AND FAMILY VIOLENCE

The City Government of Dagupan, Department of Justice (DOJ), Dagupan Prosecutor’s Office, Philippine National Police (PNP) Dagupan, and the Region 1 Medical Center (R1MC) signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) today, August 6, at the Francisco Q. Duque Hall, R1MC, to help stop domestic and family violence in the city.

Mayor Belen T. Fernandez said that the partnership creates a stronger system because it enhances the partner agencies’ ability to provide critical assistance, effective intervention, and compassionate care to victims such as sexual abuse, violence against minors, violence against women, psychological abuse and emotional stress.

“We have come together to form a vital partnership aimed at addressing and supporting victims such as sexual abuse, violence against minors, violence against women, psychological abuse and emotional stress,” she said adding that the city is home to a dedicated Women’s Center, which addresses and supports victims of various crimes and offenses.

R1MC Medical Center Chief Dr. Joseph Roland O. Mejia underscored the importance of the work of the prosecutors and the police to immediately resolve cases of abuse by creating a fast lane with a “seamless process” to immediately secure medico legal certificate.

Dagupan City Prosecutor Ma. Victoria D. Cabrera stressed that the MOA, which she called “covenant”, must be responsive and directly beneficial to the victims, especially those who come from the underprivileged sector.

PLTCOL Brendon Palisoc, for his part, noted that one of the most pressing issues being faced by the arresting officers in filing cases against the suspects is “securing documents needed by courts, which includes the medico legal certificate”.

Palisoc assured that with the MOA already being signed by the partner agencies, the delay in these processes will already be a thing of the past.

Other partners present during the MOA signing are DOJ Regional Prosecutor Christian Paul L. Ulpindo, Dr. Ashok Vasandani, Dr. Arnel Gerard R. Gazmen, Chief Medical Professional Staff II and Supervising Administrative Officer Mr. Ramon T. Bautista.

SUPER FAMILY HEALTH CENTER, HANDA NANG MAGHATID NG MALAPIT AT LIBRENG SERBISYONG MEDIKAL

Handa na ang Super Family Health Center (SFHC) na maghatid ng mas pinalapit at libreng serbisyong medikal para sa mga Dagupeños, partikular na sa mga taga eastern barangays.

Ngayong araw, August 3, Sabado, ang blessing at inagurasyon ng pasilidad sa Brgy. Bolosan na pinondohan at itinayo sa tulong ng  Department of Health (DOH).

Ayon na rin kay DOH-Center for Health Development 1 Regional Director Dr. Paula Paz Sydiongco, ang P15M Super Family Health Center sa Dagupan ang pinakamalaki sa buong Region 1.

Ayon kay Mayor Belen T. Fernandez, malaking tulong nito, lalo na sa mga taga barangays Bolosan, Salisay, Mangin, Tebeng, Tambac at Mamalingling, dahil libre ang mga medical services tulad ng mga sumusunod: medical check up, laboratory, maternity clinic, X-ray, ultrasound, at ECG na libre para sa mga mahihirap na Dagupeño.

Pebrero noong nakaraang taon nang simulan ang konstruksyon ng pasilidad na naglalaman ng birthing area/delivery room, minor OR/surgical room, ward, dental, laboratory, pharmacy, TB DOTS at iba pang out-patient services.

Bahagi rin ng pagsasakatuparan ng proyekto si Dr. Ashok Vasandani, philanthropist, na nagbahagi ng lot area para sa mas maluwag na daan o access road para sa mga pasyente at emergency vehicles/ambulance patungo sa pasilidad.

Nagsisilbing hamon man ngayon ang nakabinbin paring pondo sa Sangguniang Panlungsod para sa site development ng lugar, dahil hanggang sa ngayon, ayon sa 7 Majority members ng SP ay “pinagaaralan pa nila ito.” Iyan ay mula 2022, 2023, at ngayong 2024.

Sa ngayon ay temporary fence at puno muna ng malunggay ang itinanim sa tulong ng Bolosan Barangay Council sa pangunguna ni Kap. Nancy Morris, City Engineering Office, City Health Office, City Agriculture Office, Bantay Ilog at volunteers dahil kailangan nang buksan ang pasilidad at mapakinabangan na ito ng mga mahihirap na maysakit.
