Pampanga Governor Dennis Pineda has ordered the mass distribution of homecare medicine kits to help in the recovery of cabalens with Covid-19 symptoms.

The home care kits were initially distributed to all district hospitals, rural health units, and barangay health centers comprising 15,000 kits for children and 15,000 for the elderly.

The latest initiative is a “reboot” of the provincial government’s program of providing its constituents the appropriate medicine with a detailed prescription, officials said.

Helping the Capitol in implementing this program are Dr. Paul Baltazar, pediatrician at Jose B. Lingad Memorial General Hospital, and Dr. Isser Sugay, pulmonologist of the Pampanga provincial government.

Last year, Pineda launched the “Gamot para sa Barangay” program to provide first aid to individuals with Covid-19 symptoms while awaiting evaluation by health professionals or hospital admission.
