The eLearning facility.
Education was also briefly discussed. The mayor is willing to provide a space for eLearning facility offered to deserving indivduals. This facility will be equipped with 5-8 desktop computers, 1-2 laser printers and probably one audiovisual. The staff will be provided by the city. Participating kids who completed the training will be awarded with a certificate of completion that will be acceptable in applying jobs. He assured that the program will be recognized by the Department of Education. This suggestion will be discussed to the board member including the costs. I suggest that the computer facility will be named “Merlita Alparaque eLearning school” in memoriam to one generous well loved woman of Kidapawan.
The proposed eLearning facility needs minor repair and also security. The office of the mayor will shoulder the costs of repair.
Kidapawan City Hospital
The main hospital and outpatient department is short of essential medical equipments. There was only one available thermometer, BP apparatus and stethoscope for the whole ward. A single nebulizer is shared by the whole hospital. There was no weighing scale in the ward. There was no diagnostic set seen in each department.
The ward was shared by several patients with different ailments. The hospital beds that were previously donated provided so much comfort compared to the old beds however over crowding and ventilation is still a problem .
The Emergency room medicine cabinets need replenishing of supplies.
Antiquated medical equipments and rusty furnitures badly needs replacement.
This nebulizer needs to be replaced.
