This Nurse Saves Lives Through Health Statistics and Data

We’ve all been witness to how statistics and data play a crucial role in managing public health at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. But collecting data is one thing; what is more important and more challenging is how to use these data in achieving positive outcomes in terms of persistent health issues in the community.

Nurse IV Daniel Garcia III of the Antipolo City Health Office does not shy away from this challenge. As Program Manager of Public Health Surveillance of the City Epidemiology, Statistics, Disaster and Response Unit (CESDRU), he captures data on the ground so that the Antipolo City Government can undertake health programs and policies that are evidence-based. In the process, his work becomes a learning opportunity as he meets people from different walks of life.

Road Improvement

“No on-oran, eg-onsang-at i dogan. Emekomkomboy i bekas, asukal, kaskada (vehicles couldn’t come up when it rained. We needed to carry our loads up here),” Regina Castillo, a resident of Bila, Bokod, shared as she expressed gratitude for the Provincial Government headed by Governor Dr. Melchor Daguines Diclas for the improvement project recently implemented along Binado-Kiweng and Palansa-Aponan-Acnip Provincial Road.

Governor Diclas has allocated P3 million for the widening and concreting of a bumpy and narrow section of the said road which had been a concern for the locals here. The project also included the construction of a slope protection to prevent slide.

“At least eg-maderder i nateng ta mayat malay kalsara (our produce would not be damaged since the road has been improved),” Castillo said. Most of the residents in this community of more or less 50 households get their living from farming.

Meet Marikina City's Street Cleaner-on-Wheels | Lingkod Bayan Diaries: Mr. Gelson A. Rili

The City of Marikina is admired by many people for its cleanliness, but often we know little of the people who make this possible. One of them is Mr. Gelson A. Rili, Laborer II of the City Environment Management Office. His diligence and commitment to keeping the city tidy not only earns him praises from his peers, co-workers, and fellow Marikenyos; he was awarded the Dangal ng Bayan at the Malacanan Palace in 2018, with no less than the President of the Philippines handing him the award. 

A devoted family man, he perseveres amid the hazards of his job and the endless demand of public service.

Get to know Gelson A. Rili in this episode of Lingkod Bayan Diaries: Katangi-Tanging Kawani.
