Strengthening Lifesaving Skills Through Capacity Building
As part of its continuing commitment to promoting safety, emergency preparedness, and quality healthcare services, the Luntiang Paraiso Regional Rehabilitation Center (LPRRC) successfully conducted the Basic Life Support (BLS) Training on June 9–10, 2026, followed by the Standard First Aid Training on June 22–24, 2026.
These competency-based trainings equipped LPRRC personnel, selected residents, and partner agency representatives with essential knowledge and practical skills in emergency response, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), basic life support, patient assessment, trauma management, wound care, bandaging, splinting, patient transport, and other lifesaving interventions. Through lectures, hands-on demonstrations, return demonstrations, and realistic emergency simulations, participants strengthened their competence and confidence in responding effectively to emergency situations.
LPRRC extends its sincere appreciation to our dedicated facilitators for their invaluable expertise and commitment to the success of these trainings: Mr. Hernani A. Resueño, RN, MAN (DepEd); Ms. Jo-Ann B. Jumawid, EMT (Medic Central Instructor); Mr. Helbert C. Zamora, RN (Provincial Health Office); Mr. Earl Ryan Salang (Provincial Health Office); Ms. Lesley C. Cadua, RN, MN, LPT (Provincial Health Office); and Ms. Sheryl C. Ablas, RN (Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office).
We also express our heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Kristine Nicole P. Hortel, MD, DFM, Chief of Hospital II, for her unwavering leadership and support as HRD Focal, and to Ms. Josierylle Marie F. Lagulay, RPM, for serving as the Secretariat and ensuring the smooth conduct of both activities.
Our sincere thanks also go to all participants and partner agencies, particularly the Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office (PSWDO), for their active participation and shared commitment to fostering a culture of safety, preparedness, and resilience.
Together, we continue to strengthen our capacity to provide timely, competent, and lifesaving care for the communities we serve.
