AmlodiTeam, Miagao (2025)

Small changes in lifestyle choices and behaviors, especially in one’s diet, are helpful in preventing the manifestation of hypertension. With the aim to improve the community population’s lifestyle, AmlodiTeam held a cooking competition and another session of Zumbacauan.

The cooking competition, in line the rehabilitation of the community garden to have more accessible vegetable sources, promoted healthy meals containing less salt, less sugar, fats, red meats, and processed products. Colorful and delicious dishes were prepared by the participants of the event.

To commence the activity, as well as the community immersion, a raffle draw was held as well as the donation of – through the courtesy of our sponsors – hypertension medicine, a sphygmomanometer, and free ECG coupons to the barangay health center.

Thank you for joining us in our fight against Hypertension. Let us continue to do this, one community at a time!

According to the World Health Organization, reliable health information is the fundamental point of decision-making in all the building blocks of the health system. With substantial information, health system policies can be developed and implemented. Additionally, this can be the basis of health research, human resources development, health education, service delivery, and health financing.

To help the BHWs of Barangay Bacauan store and organize the health information of their constituents in a more available, easy to search, and accessible platform, AmlodiTeam held a high yield Microsoft Excel Workshop last May 5, 2022. Basics such as computer commands, data input, and formatting were discussed, alongside data organization and basic formulas essential for summarizing huge amounts of health data.

IEC, according to the World Health Organization, is a public health approach with the aim to change or reinforce specific health-related behaviors in a target audience and concerns a specific problem.

With the intention to promote positive health behaviors in Barangay Bacauan, AmlodiTeam distributed IECs – or information, education, and communication materials – around the community. These materials contained general information about hypertension, good lifestyle choices, and the services provided in the barangay. To further emphasize the contents of the IECs, AmlodiTeam held “Zone Talk” – wherein facts about hypertension, including its statistics, effects, and control measures were talked about with the constituents.

We had such an engaging and dynamic afternoon at Barangay Bacauan with our special guest speaker Doc Chan Bondoc. We kicked it off with important facts and ideas in “HypertenTalk: a Hypertension Talk and Lifestyle Counselling” delivered by Doc Chan as a way to spread awareness and promote an environment open to discussions. And we closed the afternoon on our feet, moving our bodies in “ZumBacauan” , the first of our zumba sessions to promote physical activity that involves that entire community.

A good and balanced diet with fruits and vegetables is essential for a healthier lifestyle. This in turns reduces the risk for hypertension. In order to help with the goal of making healthier food options more accessible to the residents of Brgy. Bacauan, the AmlodiTeam together with the BHWs sought to rehabilitate part of the barangay's existing food forest/community garden. They helped clean up the garden plots and planted vegetable seeds such as squash, patola, ampalaya, and malunggay. We also planted a papaya sapling in the garden for good measure! The extra seeds were donated to the barangay directly.

The fight for improved health outcomes, even at the barangay level cannot be done by one person or a few individuals alone. It requires engagement from stakeholders at different levels to help achieve the set goals together.

The different activities addressing the hypertension issue in Barangay Bacauan could not have been done without your help. Maraming salamat po! 💙💙💙

One of the pillars of a properly functioning health system is how well data and health information is collected, processed, stored, and used. This was certain one of the key areas that the AmlodiTeam sought to work on with Barangay Bacauan in order to help address the hypertension issue. Afterall, interventions cannot be made without the necessary data.

With the help of the Barangay Health Workers, the AmlodiTeam organized TokTok Health to aid in the collection of health information regarding non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as hypertension. The team did house to house interviews and surveys last April 20 in the three zones of Barangay Bacauan and collected NCD information from the residents.

AmlodiTeam believes that correct and contextualized information is important in managing hypertension. To engage the community in discussion, spread awareness, and promote an environment open to ideas, we invited a special guest speaker for HypertenTalk: a Hypertension Talk and Lifestyle Counselling. Our speaker, Doc Chan Bondoc who is currently a Municipal Health Officer in Igbaras, Iloilo has experience on dealing with health issues at a barangay level as a dedicated doctor to the barrio since 2018. He believes that effective management of hypertension requires a systematic approach that connects the individual with the community. AmlodiTeam is inviting all residents of Barangay Bacauan, Miagao to attend this event at the barangay basketball court this Saturday, April 23, at 2:30 P.M.

Our team believes that the success of this project depends so much on our relationship and coordination with the community. We recently conducted a Core Group Discussion involving several sectors of Barangay Bacauan to gather important perspectives on how best we can plan and implement the project. We distributed active roles to representatives from the community and look forward to the coming activities.

To find out the most pressing health issues and how best to deal with it, we facilitated a Focus Group discussion. Together, we tackled the causes and effects of Hypertension in the community. The information we gathered will be the root basis for the approach of our program.

Get to know Bacauan:

Barangay Bacauan of the Municipality of Miagao is composed of 3 zones, with 180 registered households, 179 families, and with a total population of 612. In the past year, the major health problem of the community was dealing with the direct and indirect consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was difficult to deliver health services and keep track of health data or information systems. Through the data our team gathered, we found that hypertension remains to be one of the most pressing health issues being faced by the barangay.

All about Project HBP: Together with the Barangay officials, health workers, and residents, we concluded that one of the most pressing health issues in the community is hypertension. As a lifestyle disease, we realize that we cannot simply reduce the prevalence in the give time frame but our intervention can focus on building systems to better manage and provide care to existing cases while preventing future cases.
