Navotas seniors receive medical boost
Navotas City's senior citizens, particularly those aged 80 and above, received financial aid and free medical check-ups through a community service initiative.
The National Commission of Senior Citizens (NCSC) organized the event, which included cash gifts and medical services like blood and urine testing.
The initiative aimed to alleviate the burden on seniors by providing essential medical procedures locally, saving them the need to travel to distant hospitals.
Partnering with Jose R. Reyes Memorial Medical Center, the medical mission addressed common senior health concerns such as diabetes, hypertension, and osteoarthritis.
Beneficiaries will later return to collect their laboratory results and receive a month's supply of necessary medical items.
