DSWD TO ADOPT DOOR-TO-DOOR DELIVERY OF SENIORS’ PENSION

Cognizant of the health and physical limitations of pensioners under the Social Pension for Indigent Senior Citizens, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) will soon adopt on a national scale the door-to-door delivery scheme as another way to distribute the pension of the beneficiaries.

“The DSWD is adopting this scheme to make it more convenient for our older persons who have difficulty in traveling. Likewise, by delivering their pensions right to their doorsteps, they can save on transportation expenses in going to payout venues,” DSWD Secretary Corazon Juliano-Soliman said.

DSWD Field Offices (FOs) in Region III and  the National Capital Region (NCR) have already started the implementation of the scheme in October 2015 in partnership with the Philippine Veterans Bank (PVB) and Philippine Postal Corporation (PhilPost), respectively, as conduits.

Under the door-to-door delivery scheme, DSWD provides the master list to the conduit, which in turn, delivers the pension to the respective addresses of the beneficiaries.

The door-to-door payout must be completed within 30 calendar days from the receipt of the check and master list by the conduit.

DSWD-FO III  is implementing the scheme in  67 municipalities with a total of 29,985 target beneficiaries. As of December 23, some 26,757 seniors have received their pension through the scheme.

DSWD-FO NCR, on the other hand, covers 10 cities with a total of 23,820 target beneficiaries. As of December 23, 2015, some 17,758 seniors have received their pension via door-to-door delivery. # Source – www.dswd.gov.ph

DSWD ENJOINS FAMILIES TO SHOW LOVE FOR ABANDONED KIDS

The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) enjoins the nation to advocate for legal adoption and help abandoned and neglected children have families to call their own.

This month of love, the DSWD, together with partner agencies, raises public awareness on homeless children waiting to have their own families as it leads the nationwide celebration of Adoption Consciousness Week from February 15 to 24.

To kick off the celebration, a formal program shall be conducted on February 15 at the Philippine Information Agency (PIA) Auditorium.

More than two hundred members of the National Organizing Committee (NOC), adoption advocates, as well as adoptive families are expected to participate in the kick-off program.  NOC members include national government agencies and member-agencies of the Association of Child Caring Agencies (ACCAP), which are strong advocates of adoption and foster care.

The theme for this year’s celebration, “Legal na Ampon Ako: Anak na Totoo” (A Child Finds Worth in Legal Adoption), emphasizes that  adopted children have the same rights as the biological ones.

The theme further reinforces the need for prospective adoptive families to consider legal adoption as the only option to secure the best interest of the child.

The DSWD will also formally open a photo exhibit that will showcase encouraging bonding moments of some adoptive families and their children.

The public may visit the exhibit at the SM Mall of Asia during the weeklong celebration.

Likewise, those who are interested to adopt may visit the adoption help desks at selected SM malls nationwide, as well as in Trinoma, Market Market, and at the Festival Mall from February 20 to 21. Social workers and adoption experts are on duty to respond to queries.

To cap the weeklong event, an adoption forum shall be held on February 17 at the Department of Education, Central Office, Pasig City.

Appeal to families

Meanwhile, DSWD Secretary Corazon Juliano-Soliman said that there are children in different centers and institutions run by the DSWD and non-government organizations who are still waiting for their chance to grow up in a family setting.

“We appeal to families to open their hearts and homes to these children, and bring a smile to their lonely faces,” Sec. Soliman added.

“A houseparent in a child care residential facility with 10 or more children cannot hug all of them at the same time. Only parents can do that,” the Secretary said, citing a study that a person needs 20 hugs a day to make him or her feel whole and stable.  #  Source – www.dswd.gov.ph

The Department of Health (DOH) launches its search for the first Bayani ng Kalusugan to honor individuals and organizations who have rendered time, effort and a part of their life, in meaningful contribution to move the country closer to the achievement of Universal Health Care (UHC) or Kalusugan Pangkalahatan (KP).

The Aquino Health Agenda or KalusuganPangkalahatanis a health sector reform where DOH has led the country in establishing health programs which aim to give equitable and quality service to the public. 

“In reality, the DOH only plays a small role. All of our plans will be nothing without you as implementers. All of our policies will be nothing without you walking the talk. All of the funding will be nothing if the programs are not sustained by the front liners. The success of the DOH deeply lies in the commitment, professionalism, and responsiveness of individuals and organizations that support the Department through the years.”Health Secretary Janette P. Loreto-Garin said.

The search for DOH Heroes is open to all individuals, institutions and organizations who have made an impact on health of others and on UHC. Individual nominees must be a Filipino citizen and has experience in leading, managing, and rendering service to the health sector at least 1 year prior to nomination. These nominees must not have been convicted of any administrative, civil, or criminal case. 

Organizational nominees must be Securities and Exchange Commission registered or local government unit/DOH recognized groups and organization of at least 3 years in existence. Nominated organizations must not include political organizations and associations or unions. The areas of achievement may be in the field of health financing, service delivery, health information and research, governance, and health technology. 

Eligible nominees may include, but are not limited to, health service managers (city health officer, municipal health officer, development management officer, non-government organization leader); health service provider (doctor, nurse, dentist, med tech, other allied health professionals); health volunteer/support staff (barangay health worker, nutrition scholar, aide, janitor, DSWD parent leader, etc.); officials (governor, mayor, committee on health); citizens doing extraordinary work for health; and organizations (NGO, people’s organization, civic organization, health center, rural health unit, hospital, and other organizations).

Achievements for which the nominee is being recommended should be in line with the objectives of UHC and must have been made from July 2010 to April 2016. The nominee must be able to show documentary evidence of achievements cited. Achievements must be attested to by peers and other groups or organizations. The achievement of the nominee must not have been recognized previously by other national and international award giving bodies.

Nomination period shall run from February 16 to April 15, 2016. Nomination forms are available in the DOH Bayani ng Kalusugan website. It may also be secured from DOH Central and Regional Offices. Shortlisted nominees shall be endorsed to the DOH Regional Offices for validation to ensure the veracity of submitted documents, and subsequently to an independent National Evaluation Team. A total of 20 winners shall comprise the 2016 DOH Bayani ng Kalusugan. Winners shall be notified by June 2016. The DOH Bayani ng Kalusugan awarding ceremony shall be conducted in Metro Manila in June, 2016

“Healthcare is something that everybody needs. We achieved Kalusugan Pangkalahatan, not solely because of the Department of Health, not only because of the President’s call to “tuwid na daan”, but also because of these heroes who exemplified excellence in work, commitment and innovation towards attaining Universal Health Care.” Garin concluded. #  Source – www.da.gov.ph
