Ang pagbakuna dili lamang para malikayan ang mga sakit. Importante usab kini isip kabahin sa pag-atiman sa nutrisyon, pagtubo, ug kinatibuk-ang kahimsog sa mga bata. Pinaagi sa proteksyon batok sa mga Vaccine-Preventable Diseases, maminusan ang risgo sa pagkasakit sa mga bata. Importante kini ilabina tungod kay ang mga batang adunay malnutrisyon mas vulnerable sa mga impeksiyon.

Karong September 15 hangtod November 15, 2026, ipahigayon ang School-Based Immunization (SBI) Activity sa mga eskwelahan sa tibuok SOCCSKSARGEN. Kini kabahin sa mga paningkamot aron maprotektahan ang mga batang nag-eskwela batok sa mga sakit nga mahimong malikayan pinaagi sa pagbakuna.

✅ Motabang sa pagpaabot sa saktong impormasyon kabahin sa importansya ug benepisyo sa pagbakuna.
✅ Awhagon ang mga ginikanan ug caregivers nga makig-coordinate sa eskwelahan ug health workers ug siguruhon nga ang ilang mga anak makadawat sa bakuna nga gitakda alang kanila.
✅ Motabang sa pag-ila ug pag-abot sa mga bata nga posibleng wala pa mabakunahan, subay sa mga listahan ug impormasyon nga ihatag sa health ug education teams.
✅ Makig-coordinate sa Barangay Health Workers, school personnel, ug local health workers aron masuportahan ang hapsay nga pagpatuman sa vaccination activities.
✅ Gamita ang mga nutrition activities ug community interactions isip oportunidad sa pagpahinumdom nga ang pagbakuna, hustong nutrisyon, kalimpyo, ug regular nga health services nagtinabangay aron mapadayon ang kahimsog sa mga bata.

Ang matag batang mabakunahan usa ka pamaagi padulong sa mas luwas ug mas himsog nga komunidad. Kauban sa National Nutrition Council XII, atong suportahan ang School-Based Immunization Activity ug paningkamotan nga walay bata nga mahibilin sa proteksyon nga gihatag sa bakuna. 💚

Promoting healthier families through proper nutrition and preventive health care! A nutrition education session was conducted among pregnant women and individuals with Hypertension (HPN) and Diabetes Mellitus (DM) in Brgy. Kapatan.

The session focused on Pinggang Pinoy, First 1,000 Days and the 10 Kumainments, emphasizing balanced meals, proper portion sizes, and healthier food choices appropriate for their needs. 🍚🥦🐟🍎

Alongside the nutrition education, laboratory tests were also provided to pregnant women and HPN/DM clients to support early detection, monitoring, and appropriate management of their health conditions. 🧪

🤰 For pregnant women, proper nutrition and regular health monitoring are important for the well-being of both mother and baby. The discussion also emphasized the importance of proper nutrition during pregnancy and the critical First 1,000 Days—from pregnancy until a child’s second birthday. This period is a crucial window for supporting the child’s growth, development, and lifelong health.

For HPN and DM clients, healthy eating and regular monitoring help support better blood pressure and blood sugar control.

As part of the celebration of Nutrition Month 2026 with the theme "𝑵𝒖𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒚𝒐𝒏 𝒂𝒕 𝑲𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒂𝒔𝒂𝒏, 𝑨𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑷𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒂𝒍𝒂𝒈𝒂𝒂𝒏," simultaneous activities were successfully conducted in the different barangays of the Municipality of Glan, bringing nutrition education closer to every community.

One of the highlights of the celebration was the nutrition lecture on the Ten Kumainments and Pinggang Pinoy, where participants learned practical ways to achieve a balanced and healthy diet. The sessions emphasized the importance of eating a variety of nutritious foods, consuming the right food portions, choosing locally available and healthy foods, and adopting healthy eating habits to prevent malnutrition and diet-related diseases.

The lectures also reinforced the connection between proper nutrition and environmental protection by encouraging families to make sustainable food choices, reduce food waste, and support locally grown produce. Through these learning sessions, community members were empowered to make informed decisions that promote healthier families while helping preserve the environment.

This simultaneous celebration reflects the Municipality of Glan's continued commitment to improving the nutritional well-being of every Filipino through education, collaboration, and community participation.

Together, let us continue to nourish our families, protect our environment, and build healthier communities for generations to come.

In response to the recent flooding that affected Barangay Mudan, the Rural Health Unit (RHU) of Glan deployed two medical teams to provide immediate and essential health and nutrition services to affected families. The activity aimed to ensure that community members continue to receive quality healthcare and preventive services during this challenging time.

🩺 𝑴𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒍 𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒔
The medical teams conducted medical consultations, assessment of common illnesses, vital signs monitoring, treatment of minor health conditions, prescription of appropriate medications, and dispensing of free medicines. Patients requiring further management were also referred to appropriate health facilities.

💧 𝑾𝑨𝑺𝑯 (𝑾𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒓, 𝑺𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑯𝒚𝒈𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒆) 𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒔
The WASH Team, in coordination with the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) and the Philippine Coast Guard, distributed Aquatabs to flood-affected families to promote safe water consumption and prevent waterborne diseases.The team also provided health education on proper handwashing, safe water handling and storage, household water treatment, environmental sanitation, proper waste disposal, and disease prevention measures to reduce the risk of waterborne and sanitation-related illnesses commonly associated with flooding.

🥗 𝑵𝒖𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒔
The Nutrition Team conducted nutrition screening and assessment of children, pregnant women, and lactating mothers, including MUAC measurement where appropriate. Nutrition counseling and education were provided on infant and young child feeding, proper nutrition during emergencies, food safety, and maintaining a balanced diet despite limited resources. Micronutrient supplementation and nutrition commodities including ready to use supplementary food (RUSF), manna pack rice, Kirk, Vitamin A and breastfeeding kits were also distributed to eligible beneficiaries.

This collaborative effort reflects the RHU's commitment to protecting the health and well-being of every resident, especially during emergencies. Through coordinated Medical, WASH, and Nutrition interventions, we continue to strengthen community resilience and ensure that no one is left behind.
