JLGMH’S OPD AND MEDICAL ARTS BUILDING, INAUGURATED

City Mayor James “Bong” Gordon Jr. and Olongapo First Lady and Zambales Vice Governor Anne Marie Gordon, recently inaugurated the new Out Patient Department (OPD) and Medical Arts Building of James L. Gordon Memorial Hospital (JLGMH). The inauguration was held in conjunction with the commemoration of the 42nd Cityhood of Olongapo.

Vice Mayor Cynthia Cajudo and Dr. Arturo Mendoza, Chief of Hospital, JLGMH, joined the City’s first couple in leading the inauguration.

“Ang bagong OPD/Medical Arts building ay may three (3) floors na may mga modern facilities tulad ng para sa sports medicine, women and children’s health protection at chemotherapy unit para sa mga cancer patients,” explained Dr. Mendoza.

The new OPD building was made in order to give faster and more efficient service.

The OPD/Medical Arts Building has an additional twenty-four (24) private rooms and eight (8) beds for a semi-private room. A canteen will also be located inside the building.

“Magkakaroon din sa building ng mga doctor’s offices para hindi na mahirapang maghanap ng mga doctors ang mga pasyente,” Dr. Mendoza added.

“Ang kalusugan ay isa sa mga pangunahing programa ni Mayor Gordon. Ang pagdadagdag ng bagong building ay hindi lamang makakapag-pabuti ng serbisyo ng ospital kung hindi makakatulong din sa pag-generate ng income para sa ikabubuti ng buong lungsod,” Mendoza said.
