AGH to get new equipment from DOH

From the Philippine News Agency (Jul 9): AGH to get new equipment from DOH

The Department of Health (DOH) will donate two units of mobile dental vehicles (MDV) and 100 sets of beds and mattresses to the Fort Bonifacio, Taguig-based Army General Hospital (AGH) on July 11.

The medical equipment will be received by Philippine Army (PA) commanding general, Lt. Gen. Eduardo M. Año, from DOH Secretary Paulyn Jean Rosell-Ubial after the flag- raising ceremony.

Army spokesperson Col. Benjamin Hao said the ceremonial turnover would be followed by the signing of the Deed of Donation and blessing of the new equipment.

“The medical equipment will help enhance the Army’s hospital capability and boost the morale of the Army personnel and dependents who are recipients of health care services provided by AGH,” Hao said.

The 200-bed AGH is capable of performing diagnostic, surgical and treatment procedures to emergency cases, confined patients and ambulatory clients seeking consultative services of orthopedics, urology, ophthalmology, physical medicine, neuro-psychiatry and dental services.

Hao said the donation was made possible through the Army’s continuous engagement with various key stakeholders as embodied in the Army Transformation Roadmap's and Armed Forces of the Philippines' Internal Peace and Security Plan Bayanihan.
