Matagumpay na isinagawa ng Provincial Health Office (PHO) sa pamamagitan ng Family Health Cluster, katuwang ang Provincial Department of Health Office (PDOHO), ang Maternal, Neonatal, and Death Surveillance and Response (MNDSR).

Layunin ng gawaing ito na suriin ang mga kaso ng maternal at neonatal deaths, matukoy ang mga kakulangan sa pagbibigay ng serbisyong pangkalusugan, at makabuo ng mga konkretong hakbang upang higit pang mapabuti ang kalidad ng pangangalaga sa mga buntis, ina, at mga bagong silang na sanggol.

Sa pamamagitan ng sama-samang pagsusuri, pagbabahagi ng kaalaman, at pagtutulungan ng mga katuwang sa kalusugan, patuloy nating pinagtitibay ang ating adhikain na maiwasan ang mga pagkamatay na maaaring maagapan at matiyak ang ligtas na pagbubuntis, ligtas na panganganak, at malusog na simula ng bawat sanggol.

The Provincial Health Office of Zambales successfully conducted the Newborn Screening (NBS) Training for Newborn Screening Facility (NSF) Coordinators on July 8–9, 2026 at Funtasea Hotel & Resort, Iba, Zambales.

The two-day training gathered NSF Coordinators from Rural Health Units and government hospitals across the province to strengthen their knowledge and practical skills in implementing quality newborn screening services. Participants attended lectures on the National Newborn Screening Program, Republic Act No. 9288, facility implementation, NSF accreditation, and administrative procedures, followed by a hands-on practicum on proper heel-prick blood specimen collection and filter card completion.

A significant highlight of the activity was the successful collection of 18 newborn screening blood specimens during the supervised practicum, allowing participants to apply national standards and best practices in actual newborn screening procedures.

The Provincial Health Office extends its heartfelt appreciation to the Department of Health – Central Luzon Center for Health Development (DOH-CLCHD), the Newborn Screening Center Central Luzon (NSCCL), our dedicated resource speakers and facilitators, partner health facilities, and all participants for their invaluable support and commitment to ensuring that every newborn in Zambales receives timely, quality, and life-saving newborn screening services.
