MABALACAT CITY – The medical team of city local government here has been instructed to help the people in need of health assistance without asking for anything in return.
“Sa ating medical team, patuloy ninyong tulungan ang mga kababayan natin ng taos-puso at walang pinipili. Kung meron kayong kaalaman at kakayahan at nakikita niyong kailangan buhatin ang pasyente, gawin ninyo. Pero kapag meron akong nalaman na meron nanghingi sa inyo sa mga kababayan natin kapalit ng pagtulong ninyo, malalagot kayo sa akin,” Mayor Crisostomo Garbo (MCG) said during the flag ceremony outside the city hall.
The mayor furthered that his administration must not be selective in delivering government services but should rather be inclusive, and no double standard.
“I am giving you enough time to find all the bedridden kababayans in our 27 barangays. Ayaw ko ng makarinig ng may nalalagpasan ako tuwing nagsasagawa ako ng visitation,” the city mayor added.
Garbo also said in his message that all public servants and government employees in Mabalacat must not be complacent or satisfied with their current performance and instead should double efforts in helping constituents and in upgrading the city to become even better.
“Narito tayo upang i-angat ang antas ng kalidad ng paglilingkod sa kapwa. Huwag tayo magslowdown sa public service. Regular na ikutin ang bawat barangay. Alamin ang mga kakulangan kahit yung maliliit na bagay na dapat pa rin ayusin,” Garbo said.
To date, the Mabalacat city government has an existing 10 dialysis machines. Mayor Cris Garbo already announced last month that he will be adding 22 more units to increase the treatment sessions to up to 96 cycles per day.
Garbo has also successfully offered personal prayers and financial assistance to 554 bedridden Mabalaqueños since he started his personal visits in 2019.
