CALAPAN CITY — The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) has formally handed over P17.8 million in medical equipment and two patient transport vehicles to the provincial government of Oriental Mindoro, significantly strengthening the province's healthcare infrastructure.
The donation package includes one portable digital X-ray machine, eight electrocardiogram (ECG) units, and five mechanical ventilators designated for the Oriental Mindoro Provincial Hospital (OMPH). The two ambulances will enhance emergency medical transport capabilities across the province.
The equipment transfer represents a substantial investment in regional healthcare services, addressing critical gaps in diagnostic and respiratory care resources. The additions are expected to improve patient outcomes and expand the hospital's capacity to handle complex medical cases.
PCSO's contribution underscores ongoing efforts to enhance medical facilities in provincial areas outside the national capital region. Oriental Mindoro joins other provincial recipients of similar assistance as the charity organization continues its mission to support public health infrastructure across the country.
