IN a continuing effort to bring essential services closer to its residents, the City Government of Tagbilaran, under the leadership of Mayor Jane Yap, brought its free mobile services to barangay Cogon on July 21, 2023.
The mobile services team, equipped with a fleet of specialized vehicles and personnel, visited barangay Cogon, bringing vital services directly to the doorsteps of the community residents. The mobile services initiative reflects the city’s commitment of ensuring that every citizen has access to necessary services without having to travel far from their homes.
One of the main highlights of the Mobile Services is the Mobile Health Clinic, a facility that allows residents to receive general consultations, ultrasound tests, cardiac panels, ECGs, blood typing, X-rays, and complete blood counts (CBC).
The Mobile Dental Bus was also on site to provide dental consultations and render dental extractions for oral health.
The mobile services also included grooming and wellness which offered free haircut and half-body massage to promote overall well-being.
On the other hand, free legal services like legal consultations and assistance in drafting and notarizing simple documents were provided onsite.
Local Civil Registrar services were also extended, allowing residents to avail themselves of delayed registrations of live births and migrant workers’ petitions for corrections of clerical errors in the registry documents.
A mobile kitchen was also available to provide free snacks for all.
The free mobile services program has garnered enthusiastic responses from barangay Cogon residents, who expressed their appreciation for the convenience and accessibility of the services provided.
Mayor Jane Yap herself conveyed her delight at witnessing the positive impact of the program on the lives of her constituents.
“We are committed to ensuring that our services reach every corner of Tagbilaran City, making it easier for our citizens to access the vital services they need. The Mobile Services represent our dedication to serving the community and fostering an inclusive and caring environment for all,” Mayor Yap stated.
The mobile services have previously visited barangays Cabawan, Bool, Tiptip and Poblacion I and the program will continue its rounds, visiting different puroks and barangays of Tagbilaran City, providing convenient access to various services to its residents.
