One of the major problem that arises in workplace setting is the lack of physical activity and exercise that in longer time may result to non-communicable diseases such as heart diseases, diabetes, and the likes. On September of 2017, the SLRWH Physical Examination Data shows that 76 (39% - 58 Females and 18 Males) out of 197 Staff of SLRWH had an Abnormal Results which includes Hypertension (26.3%), Diabetes Mellitus Type II (25%), Dyslipidemia (14.4%) and Others (34.3%).
As a Healthcare facility that is responsible for the public’s health, we should always observe quality assurance for every services that we are rendering, but this initiative may be compromised if we healthcare providers do not take care of our health seriously.
In line with the Obesity Prevention Awareness, The SLRWH has conducted a Wellness and Healthy Lifestyle Festival last September 28, 2018 with the theme “Be ACTIVE Towards LIFESTYLE CHANGE” that promotes a lifestyle modification to be active in both physical and mental activities. The activity includes Mental Solving Problems and Zumba-Cheer Dance Competition. Also, the Wellness and Healthy Lifestyle Committee strengthen the hospital current policy on the observance of “NO SUGARY FOODS AND BEVERAGES every Monday and Wednesday and No SALTY/ JUNK FOODS every Tuesday and Thursday” for the objective of limiting the staff intake of too much sugar and salt on their daily diet.
SLRWH “Dugong Bigay, Dugtong Buhay” Mass Blood Donation 2018
The San Lorenzo Ruiz Women’s Hospital in partnership with Valenzuela Medical Center has previously conducted another Mass Blood Donation Event carrying the National Voluntary Blood Services Program’s (NVBSP) theme “Dugong Bigay, Dugtong Buhay” on September 21, 2018. This is to support the campaign of Department of Health on intensifying the advocacy for voluntary blood donation and to save more lives.
Every day blood is needed for patients with blood disorders, disease complications, disasters and critical emergencies. The Philippine is one of the fastest growing population in South East Asia and associated with this is the increase in demand of blood supply. One blood donor can give 450 to 470 ml of blood that can save three lives. The SLRWH is routinely conducting Mass Blood Donation Event every 3 to 4 months and per event the blood donors are only ranging from 30 to 40 individual which is very low compared to the number of people that needs blood transfusion specially for a SLRWH that primarily caters women patients such as high risk pregnant and those who will undergo a major surgery. The goal is to collect 1 million units of blood annually but the actual number of donated blood in 2016 is only at 930,000 and that is why the promotion on importance and benefits of blood donation to the public is very significant.
