TACLOBAN CITY – A resolution seeking assistance from Senators Pia Cayetano and Allan Peter Cayetano to provide fund for indigent patients from Leyte who are admitted to the Eastern Visayas Regional Medical Center was passed by members of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan.
It was authored by Majority Floor Leader Carlo Loreto.
Loreto introduced the resolution after the consultant of the two senators came to the province and visited the biggest government-run hospital in the region to check its condition including the patients.
Aside from asking the two senators to provide funds for indigent patients from the province confined at the EVRMC, the members of the provincial board also passed a resolution asking the senators to provide funds for hospital equipments and facilities for EVRMC.
It was learned that the Cayetano siblings, through their Priority Development Fund, had been extending help to government-run hospitals by providing funds for the procurement of hospital equipment.
The Cayetano siblings as advocates of health have been providing assistance to local government units by funding the construction and rehabilitation of rural health units.
The two senators recently provided assistance for the construction of the rural health unit in Hilongos, Leyte.
