🎙️ Strengthening Health and Nutrition Awareness in the City

Dr. Roy P. Maribojoc, the City Nutrition Action Officer, Mr. Ralph Maribojoc, the City Nutrition Program Coordinator, and RN Ojieboy Gepiga, DOH-HRH Nurse and the City Health Office representative recently guested on “Damdaming Bayan”, a public affairs segment of Infinite Radio, to raise awareness on the city's ongoing health and nutrition efforts.

During the program, Dr. Roy Maribojoc and Mr. Ralph Maribojoc shared updates on the city's nutrition initiatives, highlighting the present administration's firm commitment to improving the community’s health and well-being. They emphasized that nutrition goes beyond just feeding programs—it is a comprehensive, collaborative effort among various sectors working together to ensure a healthier community for all.

They also announced that July is Nutrition Month, marking the 51st celebration with the theme:

➡️ “Sa PPAN, Sama-sama sa Nutrisyong Sapat para sa Lahat”
Subtheme:
➡️ “Food and Nutrisyon Security, Maging Priority! Sapat na Pagkain, Karapatan Natin!”

RN Ojieboy Gepiga took the opportunity to share insights on PuroKalusugan, a primary healthcare initiative of the Department of Health (DOH) aimed at bringing essential services closer to the grassroots level by operating directly within puroks or barangay zones.

Ultimately, PuroKalusugan supports the broader vision of Universal Health Care, working to make quality healthcare accessible to all Filipinos, especially in underserved communities.

Together, the guests emphasized the importance of collaboration, awareness, and action in achieving better health and nutrition outcomes for all. They encouraged everyone to support ongoing programs, get involved in community efforts, and be part of building a stronger, healthier city.

🌾 This Nutrition Month, let’s unite behind the call for “Nutrisyong Sapat para sa Lahat”—ensuring every Filipino has access to proper food and nutrition.

🏥 And through the DOH’s PuroKalusugan program, we move closer to the goal of
“Healthcare for Everyone, Everywhere!”—bringing essential health services straight to the heart of our communities.

🌾✨ July is Nutrition Month! ✨🌾

This July marks the 51st Nutrition Month Celebration!!!!

The LGU Calbayog City, through the Calbayog City Nutrition Center, conducted a kick-off activity to open the 2025 Nutrition Month, which is anchored on the overarching theme “Sa PPAN: Sama-sama sa Nutrisyong Sapat Para sa Lahat” with the subtheme “Food and Nutrition Security Maging Priority! Sapat na Pagkain, Karapatan Natin!” As part of the celebration, the City Nutrition Center gathered the Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNS) for an orientation where they presented the objectives and key messages for this year’s Nutrition Month. These emphasize that food and proper nutrition are fundamental rights of every Filipino, raise awareness about ensuring food and nutrition security in every household, and encourage families to have access to safe, sufficient, and nutritious food. It also highlights the importance of community efforts in promoting sustainable food sources such as backyard gardening.

After the orientation, the team visited different City Nutrition Council members’ offices and various primary health facilities in Calbayog, Tinambacan, and Oquendo districts. Advocacy tarpaulins were distributed and installed in these areas to strengthen awareness and inspire collective action toward a healthier, food-secure Calbayog City—because “Sapat na Pagkain, Karapatan Natin!”
