After the storm, diseases may come like Leptospirosis, typhoid fever and etc... Here are some ways you can decrease the risk:
1. Boil water before drinking (when you don't know the source); even now the water supply is not regular, water pipes have been affected by the flood, it would be best to keep your drinking water safe
2. Observe hand hygiene;
3. Avoid wading through flood waters as much as possible
4. Clean and disinfect everything that's been touched by floodwater
5. Wear boots and gloves when cleaning up

I know resources are limited right now, but let's do what we can. Tinabangay ghapon ta.

I understand it can be intimidating, awkward and confusing at times to consult a doctor. Maybe you are more comfortable with consulting your neighbor first. But, I hope I can help you prepare you for your consult with the following advice:

1. Speak up: Share your concerns, symptoms, and feelings with your doctor. A timeline of your condition is a big help to know what's going on. Don't be afraid to ask questions! Your voice matters!

2. Be prepared: Keep track of your medical history, appointments, and test results. We apprreciate your notes and documents. Staying organized helps!

3. Advocate for yourself: Don't hesitate to seek a second opinion or request clarification. You're your own best advocate! Believe in your ability to manage your health.

4. Follow up: If you dont like the medication's side effects, or if you have questions, you can always follow-up. Even stopping by to update us that you've become better is also good.

By being a champion for your health, you'll be more engaged, informed, and empowered to take control of your well-being. 🌟

See you at the clinic! 😊

We've been having so many road events lately, here's a gentle reminder to be mentally present when driving. When your speed is increasing with your anger, remind yourself that there are more important things ahead. 🙂

Here are some essential road safety tips:

For Pedestrians:

1. Use crosswalks and follow traffic signals.
2. Be visible to drivers, especially at night (wear bright or reflective clothing).
3. Avoid distractions (no phone usage while walking).
4. Make eye contact with drivers before crossing.

For Cyclists:

1. Wear helmets and follow traffic rules.
2. Use designated bike lanes when available.
3. Be visible with lights and reflective gear at night.
4. Signal turns and follow traffic signals.

For Drivers:

1. Follow speed limits and adjust to road conditions.
2. Avoid distractions (no texting or talking on phone).
3. Wear seatbelts and ensure all passengers do.
4. Maintain vehicle safety (regular checks).
5. Be cautious of pedestrians, cyclists, and other vehicles.

In General:

1. Stay alert and focused on the road.
2. Follow traffic rules and signals.
3. Be patient and courteous to other road users.
4. Use safety gear (helmets, seatbelts).

Remember, someone important is waiting for you and your fellow road users. Keep Calm. 🙂

Getting rid of the habit may be a daily decision, but so does deciding what to eat. Choose wisely. 😊

❗️Maging matalino sa pagpili ng pagkakagastusan. PAGKAIN o YOSING NAKAKA-KANSER? ❗️

Imbis na bumili ka ng nakaka-kanser na yosi, ibili mo na lang ng bigas o masustansyang pagkain ang pera mo.

‘Wag sunugin ang pera sa bisyo. Lalo na kung maraming umaasa sayo.

Tumawag sa DOH Quitline 1558.
