The facility aims to provide accessible and quality health care to the people of Angeles, particularly in this bustling barangay.
As part of efforts to enhance health services, the city government has also recruited additional medical personnel, including doctors, dentists, pharmacists, and dental aides. This move is intended to ensure that Angeleños receive the best possible care and that the primary care facilities are equipped to handle a growing demand for health services.
Mayor Lazatin’s administration is also focused on maintaining an adequate supply of medicines at each primary care unit.
