ANGELES CITY – Nine more primary health care units are set to be completed by
the city government by November this year.
This was announced by Mayor Carmelo & quot;Pogi" Lazatin, Jr. in his 5 th State of the
City Address at the Sangguniang Panlungsod Legislative Building here on June 24.
The said soon-to-rise primary health care units are located in barangays
Pulungbulu, Pulung Maragul, Cutud, Anunas, Capaya, Amsic, Tabun, Malabanias,
and Balibago.
"With a population of 450,000, Angeles City must have 15 primary health care
units," Lazatin said, noting that when he the mayoralty in 2019, the city
government only had six rural health units.
These RHUs are also now undergoing major facelifts and construction works in
following the guidelines of the Department of Health.
Lazatin said with the ongoing construction of nine more health care units, which
started last 2023, the city will have the ideal number of available health care units
based on the city's population.
Taking after his father and namesake, the late Carmelo “Tarzan” Lazatin who
served as multi-term Pampanga 1 st District representative and Angeles City mayor,
arzan" Lazatin, in matters of good governance, the mayor firmly believes that
"those who have less in life must have more from the government." Angeles CIO
