Hospitals in the Philippines has inadequate capacity to manage with the particular
problem of dealing with sick children. There are no separate sections for the children, other
than the immunization and weighing points for the newly-born babies and the two inadequate
wards in the medical and surgical units respectively. Children are presented with illness or
injuries that cannot be managed properly in a primary care setting. A proposal of a paediatric
hospital with child care and family activity center, a new hospital for the above-mentioned
area will be beneficial to the children of that area.

New hospital, which will serve as one of the major hospitals to the pregnant women and to
their children and it will need such a facility to cater for the health needs of all those children
in the communities that fall within the area.

It will help to save the lives of all children in the surrounding and sub-communities of these
districts. There is therefore no doubt that a provision of a Paediatric Hospital with Child Care
and Family Activity Area in mentioned area is benefiting for the children in the district and
the surrounding districts as a whole. These children, would then live as healthier adults to
become strong and competent leaders in the future.
