ETDMH Joins the Nation in Celebrating National Children’s Month 2025!

Theme: OSAEC–CSAEM Wakasan: Kaligtasan at Karapatan ng Bata, Ipaglaban!

This November, the Eleuterio T. Decena Memorial Hospital (ETDMH) proudly celebrated National Children’s Month with activities that promote every child’s health, safety, and rights.

We opened the month with the recitation of the Panatang Makabata during our Flag Ceremony—our shared pledge to protect and uphold the dignity and well-being of all children.

Health Advocacy Activities:

Our team conducted learning sessions for children and parents focusing on:

✔ Children’s Rights & Protection (including prevention of OSAEC & CSAEM)
✔ Proper Nutrition
✔ Infection Prevention & Control
✔ Environmental Health & Disaster Preparedness
✔ Mental Health Awareness

Highlight of the Celebration:
ETDMH provided Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) to children and families affected by Typhoon Tino. Through play-based activities, stress-relief sessions, and emotional support, we helped our young survivors regain a sense of security, hope, and resilience.

This month’s celebration reaffirmed our commitment to creating a safe, healthy, and empowering environment for every child—especially in times of crisis.

Together, let’s continue protecting our children’s rights and building a future where they can grow, heal, and thrive.

ETDMH MESSAGE OF SUPPORT AND SOLIDARITY
World Day of Remembrance for Road Crash Victims and Survivors
November 2025

Today, Eleuterio T. Decena Memorial Hospital (ETDMH) stands in solemn solidarity with our communities as we commemorate the World Day of Remembrance for Road Crash Victims and Survivors. We honor the precious lives lost on our roads, the families forever changed by tragedy, and the survivors who continue to live each day with courage, resilience, and hope.

Road crashes take away more than statistics—they take loved ones, dreams, and futures. As a healthcare institution, we witness firsthand the deep physical, emotional, and social impacts of these preventable incidents. And so today, we reaffirm our commitment to saving lives, promoting road safety, and supporting all efforts to build safer, more compassionate communities.

ETDMH pledges to:
• Strengthen our emergency and trauma care services to better respond to road crash victims;
• Promote road safety awareness and injury prevention in our communities;
• Stand with survivors in their healing journey—physically, emotionally, and psychosocially;
• Honor the memory of those who have gone ahead by advocating for safer roads for all.

To all families who have lost loved ones, we offer our heartfelt prayers and deepest sympathies. To the survivors, we honor your strength. And to every road user, we echo today’s global call: Let us be vigilant, responsible, and compassionate—because every life on the road matters.

Together, let us remember, support, and take action.
Together, let us work for a future where no more lives are lost on our roads.

ETDMH joins the world in remembrance, healing, and hope.
