The DOH-CHD CARAGA conducted PIMAM training in collaboration with the Provincial Health Office-Nutrition Services Unit of Surigao del Norte. The training was attended by representatives from the eight municipalities of Siargao Islands, Surigao del Norte, namely: Burgos, Dapa, Del Carmen, General Luna, Pilar, San Benito, San Isidro, and Sta. Monica. Participants included Municipal Health Officers, Municipal Nutrition Action Officers, RHU Midwives, and Nurses.

The training session, from the Opening Program to Module 2 (Overview of SAM and Identification of SAM), was led by Nutritionist-Dietitian II Ms. Daisy Glenn Masillones, Nutritionist Dietitian I Ms. Jessie Ann Rulida of PHO, and Mr. Gabriel Tubigon of UNICEF Philippines, along with Ms. Carren Sumaylo, RN, and Ms. Hare Britney Jasmin, RND, from PDOHO-SDN.

The primary goal of the training was to provide an overview of the PIMAM program, its guiding principles, and effective methods to identify children with moderate and severe acute malnutrition through anthropometric measurements (weight, height, MUAC), as well as to test for the presence or absence of edema and assess appetite. The training aimed to equip healthcare workers with the necessary skills to effectively address acute malnutrition in children.
