Warmest congratulations to the Senior Academy Batch 2026 of the Hebron Community Foundation! 🎓✨

It was an absolute honor for our Founder and Managing Director, Dr. Venus Oliva Cloma-Rosales, to join the graduation ceremony today at Caza Guest House in Jordan, Guimaras. Doc Ivy shared a heart-to-heart session on "Practical Advice for Quality of Life for Seniors," emphasizing that while living longer is a blessing, living well is our ultimate goal.

At 101 Health Research, we believe that true strength isn't just in years—it's in how we protect, outsmart challenges, and care for one another.

Here are the three pillars Dr. Ivy shared to help our seniors stay vibrant and secure:

Stay SAFE
Accidents at home are preventable! Simple habits make a big difference:
• Keep pathways clear of clutter and secure loose rugs.
• Use good lighting, especially at night.
• Slow down: Sit before standing up and always wear proper footwear with grip.

Stay SMART
Scams are everywhere, but we can outsmart them by following three simple rules:
• Pause: Do not act immediately on "emergency" messages or prize claims.
• Verify: Check official sources before sharing any personal info or OTPs.
• Ask: Consult trusted people before sending money.

Stay Strong TOGETHER
We are safer and happier when we look out for each other.
• Create a buddy system with your neighbors.
• Check in regularly and offer help with daily tasks or appointments.
• Share contact numbers so help is always within reach.

To the graduates: Your journey is an inspiration to us all. Thank you for showing us that staying active and connected is the best way to thrive!

Stay Safe. Stay Smart. Stay Strong Together.

International Day of Zero Waste | March 30
Healthcare waste management is essential for patient safety, worker protection, and environmental health.

🌍 Healthcare systems save lives — but they also generate significant waste.

From dialysis units to operating rooms, from pharmaceuticals to laboratory testing, healthcare has a measurable environmental footprint.

A zero waste approach in healthcare does not compromise patient safety.
It strengthens systems.

It means:
• Reducing waste at source
• Segregating correctly
• Procuring sustainably
• Reusing safely when evidence supports it
• Using data to guide environmental decisions

Circular economy principles are already emerging in:
âś” Sustainable nephrology
âś” Rationalized operating room kits
âś” Low-flow anesthesia
âś” Smarter supply chains
âś” Evidence-based reduction of unnecessary tests

Zero waste is not just an environmental issue.
It is a governance, procurement, and health systems issue.

Clinicians, administrators, patients, and communities all have a role.
Healthcare can heal without harming.

Traditional OSH research was built for stable, physical workplaces where hazards were easy to measure with a noise meter or a checklist. But how do we study risk in a world of algorithmic management, remote gig work, and climate-amplified stressors?

To address these "invisible" and distributed risks, our scoping review identified a critical shift in research design. We are moving away from static exposure-outcome models toward systems-based, anticipatory, and technologically integrated methodologies.

Here is how the research toolkit is evolving to meet the changing world of work.

Beyond the five individual drivers of change lies a deeper layer of transformation. Our scoping review revealed that whether we are discussing AI, climate change, or the gig economy, the same structural "stress tests" keep appearing.

These are the Cross-Cutting Patterns: the systemic shifts that redefine how we must approach worker protection in a decentralized and digitalized world. Understanding these patterns is the key to moving from reactive hazard control to anticipatory, systems-based OSH.

When global supply chains are disrupted, healthcare feels it first—and patients feel it most.

A potential disruption in the Strait of Hormuz is not just an energy issue. It is a health system risk.

From ICU care to vaccines, healthcare depends on fuel, logistics, and global supply chains.

The question is not whether disruptions will happen.
The question is whether we prepare before they reach the bedside.

If this resonates, we welcome a conversation on how to build more resilient health systems.

Occupational risks do not emerge in isolation.

They are shaped by macro-level structural transformations that alter how work is organized, regulated, technologized, and distributed across populations.

Our scoping review identified five recurring structural drivers of change in the contemporary world of work.

These are not thematic clusters or speculative hypotheses.

They are observable, system-level forces influencing exposure patterns, governance models, and research priorities across global OSH scholarship.

Understanding these upstream drivers is essential for occupational physicians, regulators, and institutions designing adaptive protection systems.

Here are the five.

Tuberculosis (TB) remains the world’s leading cause of death from a single infectious agent.

According to the WHO Global Tuberculosis Report 2025:
• 10.7 million people fell ill with TB in 2024
• 1.23 million people died, including 150,000 people with HIV
• 390,000 developed drug-resistant TB
• ~2.4 million people were not diagnosed or reported

Eight countries account for two-thirds of global TB burden:
India, Indonesia, the Philippines, China, Pakistan, Nigeria, DR Congo, and Bangladesh.

In the Philippines, TB remains a major public health challenge and is among the highest-burden settings globally.

TB is driven by broader determinants:
Undernutrition, diabetes, alcohol use, smoking, and HIV.

Despite progress, only 42% of people with drug-resistant TB accessed treatment in 2024. About half of TB-affected households face catastrophic costs.

Ending TB requires:
âś” Early diagnosis and rapid testing
âś” Preventive treatment
âś” Integrated TB-HIV services
âś” Universal health coverage
âś” Sustained financing and research

TB is preventable. TB is curable.
Ending TB requires systems-level action.

Healthcare doesn't just need more AI apps, it needs systems designed to learn. đź’ˇ

In her latest article on e27.co, our Founder and Managing Director, Dr. Venus Oliva Cloma-Rosales, tackles the real challenge behind the emerging digital health economy.

We generate massive amounts of clinical knowledge every single day, yet much of it remains trapped in fragmented records, spreadsheets, and PDFs. Dr. Venus breaks down why bridging this gap requires more than just technological sophistication; it requires governance, trust, and a focus on equity—especially for health systems in Southeast Asia and the Global South.

How do we turn everyday care into shared knowledge?

Water security is inseparable from health system performance.

Access to safe water influences:
• Infection prevention and control
• Maternal and child health
• Nutrition and food safety
• Health facility readiness

Strengthening water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) systems requires robust data, interdisciplinary research, and evidence-informed policy.

At 101 Health Research, we emphasize the role of research and health data in understanding and addressing water-related health risks—particularly in vulnerable and resource-constrained settings.

Our Founder and Managing Director, Doc Ivy (Venus Oliva Cloma-Rosales, MD), delivered a lecture at the 47th PCOM Convention.

We thank the Philippine College of Occupational Medicine (PCOM) for the opportunity to be part of this important gathering.

In her talk, “Breaking New Ground in Occupational Safety & Health Research,” Doc Ivy presented a scoping review of future-oriented research questions in the context of a rapidly evolving world of work. The discussion highlighted the need to advance toward a more human-centered OSH 5.0 framework.

Key takeaways include:
• The "New Normal" Requires New Approaches: Rapid shifts driven by technological innovation, climate change, and changing workforce dynamics require us to move from traditional exposure-outcome models toward systems-based and anticipatory approaches.
• Proactive Over Reactive: We must shift away from retrospective "lagging indicators," such as injury rates, and move toward predictive modeling and validating "leading indicators" to prevent harm before it occurs.
• Methodological Innovations: The future of OSH research relies heavily on predictive modeling and AI analytics, continuous monitoring through wearable sensor systems, and strategic foresight.
• Bridging Research and Policy: It is critical to redesign OSH systems into adaptive "living documents" that can keep pace with rapid technological and industrial innovation.

Thank you to everyone who joined us to connect people, policies, and platforms!
