How many of us use AI in our daily lives? Or perhaps the more important question is: Are we using AI responsibly? In a world where technology continues to evolve, what can AI do for us, and what should remain uniquely human?

In response to the growing influence of digital technology in our daily lives, the Mariano Marcos Memorial Hospital and Medical Center (MMMHMC), under the leadership of Dr Maria Lourdes K. Otayza, conducted a mental health talk on digital wellness entitled “PAUSE: Reclaiming Our Attention, Energy, and Humanity in a Fast-Paced World.” on October 30, 2026.

P- Protect your Attention
A- Allow yourself to Slow Down
U- Understand your Stress
S- Step beyond your work
E- Engage with others

Mr. Juan Rafael Opsima, the subject matter expert, emphasized the importance of maintaining control over decisions in both personal and professional life. He reminded participants that AI is a tool designed to assist us, not something to depend on entirely.

MMMHMC employees attended the activity, which featured discussions on digital health, an interactive workshop exploring the roles of AI and humans, and a personal commitment activity encouraging participants to pause and reflect on their digital habits.

Sa kabila ng mga pagbabago at hamon na dala ng El Niño, maipapadama natin ang pagmamahal sa ating pamilya sa pamamagitan ng pagpapanatili ng sapat at masustansyang pagkain sa hapag-kainan.

Sama-sama nating pangalagaan ang paglaki ng ating mga chikiting at siguraduhing ligtas ang buong pamilya laban sa anumang banta sa kalusugan.

Maging alerto at magtulungan tayo para sa isang malusog na pamayanan!

Maiiwasan ang pagkalat ng mikrobyo at sakit sa pamilya sa simpleng pagligo at pagpapalit ng damit pag-uwi sa bahay. Ngayong Undas, ipagpatuloy nating payapa at ligtas Undas upang protektado ang kalusugan ng ating mga pamilya.

Isang paalala mula sa Kagawaran ng Kalusugan.
