CSMC’s expanded its mobile clinic program with their latest healthcare innovation, Hospital on Wheels

Due to the rise of the new Omicron variant and an influx of COVID-19 cases in the country, Filipinos are once again confined to their homes, either due to implementations by their local government units, or self-imposing these measures just to keep safe. This means that certain medical tests and procedures have gone back to being remotely accessed.

 

Fortunately, Cardinal Santos Medical Center (CSMC) is prepared for such a situation. Continuing with their quality and patient-centered services, the institution expanded its mobile clinic program with their latest healthcare innovation, Hospital on Wheels.

Taking its cue from its predecessor, the Cardinal on Wheels, the Hospital on Wheels is a larger, 32-foot, ten-wheeler mobile clinic, and is fully equipped to accommodate a variety of hospital services like laboratory tests such as Urinalysis, Fecalysis, and Complete Blood Count among others, and is capable of specialized tests like ECG, Ultrasound, and 2D-Echo. Finally, CSMC’s top medical professionals and staff can also conduct consultations.

 

While the initial program was developed out of CSMC’s desire to meet the medical needs of the community and reach as many patients who need medical care, the Hospital on Wheels takes it one step further by bringing it to corporate partners, small to medium enterprises, private villages and condominiums.

 

Such an effort was acknowledged and even praised by Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Chairman Atty. Benjamin "Benhur" Abalos Jr., emphasizing during the launch last December how the program benefits the community and helps the government in curbing the pandemic’s effects.

 

For more information about CSMC’s Hospital on Wheels, please call 0928-5543217 or 8724-4115. CSMC is also on Facebook, like and follow them at www.facebook.com/CardinalSantos. 

 

Tips to help you kickstart your mornings with ease

For a lot of people, it can be challenging to start the day, especially if you have a lot on your plate. Having an early head start and energizing morning is essential in accomplishing your daily to dos and responsibilities.

 

Here are five activities to help you kickstart your mornings with ease:

Create a journal entry

Apart from physically waking yourself up, keeping your mind sharp at the start of everyday can help you look forward to what the day may bring. Allot at least 15 minutes in the morning to sit down and do a decorative gratitude page on your journal. For the ones expecting a busy day ahead, you can map out your daily plans and to-dos to organize the things you need to accomplish. 

 

Walk your pets

Most dedicated pet parents spend a part of their mornings checking on their furry friends that they tend to get some exercise in. Stretch your legs by going for a 10-minute walk or go for a quick jog around the village. You can soak up the sun for some vitamin D and indulge in a simple exercise for both you and your pet.

 

Develop a home work-out routine

Working out can be daunting for beginners. But the good thing is, even at home you can find an activity that will improve your body’s stamina and make you physically alert throughout the day. You can do quick 10-minute workouts like push-ups and sit-ups, follow a yoga routine on YouTube, or get into HIIT workouts. Just make sure to get enough sleep prior to working out to avoid getting over-fatigued before work starts.

 

Enroll in a dance class

Love music and dancing alone? Then it’s time to try something new: dance classes. Not only are they fun to learn, but they can also be a great form of workout. You can start by joining online Zumba classes or even learn the basics of street dancing from their rooms. This activity can wake up anyone’s senses in the mornings or anytime of the day.

 

Sleep and get up early

Sleeping early and getting ample hours of sleep may help give you the energy and mood boost you need. This also means that you can wake up early the next morning and can get more things done. For more energizing mornings, try cooking a proper breakfast meal and pair it with a great cup of Great Taste Duo coffee. Its balance of dark roast coffee and right sweetness of brown sugar is the tamang timpla you’ll enjoy.  

 

Great Taste Duo is the first two-in-one coffee mix that is sure to help keep you energized every morning. Affordably priced at only Php 4.00 per sachet, it’s an ideal drink to give you the daily boost of energy to kickstart your day!

 

Great Taste Duo is available in leading supermarkets and sari-sari stores nationwide. For more information, visit www.facebook.com/GreatTasteCoffeePH.

Madiskarte Moms PH honors Filipina mompreneurs at the first-ever Gawad Madiskarte

Unsung heroes. In the past two years of the pandemic, that’s what our moms have proven to be. 

 

Despite bearing the brunt of COVID-19’s impact in the labor sector (many of whom lost their jobs or suffered pay cuts), these women made sure their family needs are taken care of by finding alternative ways of providing for their households.

 

For many, this meant going out of their comfort zones and starting their own online businesses. Based on data from Investing in Women, one in four micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the Philippines is owned by a woman. And this number has only risen during the pandemic with more than 88,000 new e-commerce businesses registered just in 2020.

Recognizing their immense contribution to their families as well as the potential of online home businesses in pushing for economic recovery, PLDT Home and a group of Filipino mompreneurs launched Madiskarte Moms PH (MMPH) last September 2020. 

 

MMPH is an online community where moms can get a head start on their own online home businesses or get tips and know-how to grow and expand their side hustles. Now with more than 98,000 members from all over the Philippines, MMPH has become a safe space where moms could exchange best practices, share experiences, and motivate each other to pursue their passions while also becoming financially independent. The community provides members with a 24/7 virtual venue of relevant information and networking opportunities to help mompreneurs kickstart their own online home businesses.

 

Gawad Madiskarte 2022: Pagkilala sa Tagumpay ng Madiskarteng Pinay

 

To recognize the hard work of Filipino mompreneurs and celebrate their success, MMPH is holding its first ever annual awards – Gawad Madiskarte 2022: Pagkilala sa Tagumpay ng Madiskarteng Pinay – this coming March 2022.

 

Powered by PLDT Home Biz, the annual awards ceremony is a tribute to the Filipina entrepreneurial spirit. Inviting moms of smarts and style to a big virtual gathering, Gawad Madiskarte salutes the achievements of mompreneurs who have created and grown their online businesses amid an economically challenging pandemic — armed only with their drive and personal diskarte. The special awarding ceremony fittingly happens on March 8, 2022, which is International Women’s Day, hoping to inspire other moms and women to start their own businesses from home as well.

 

Gawad Madiskarte introduces two main award categories: The Start Up Division, which honors mompreneurs who have bravely started their online side hustles (at least six months operation) despite the challenges of the ongoing pandemic, and The Scale Up Division, which recognizes those who successfully started and maintained their businesses for at least 13 months. 

 

Awards in the Start Up category include Diskarteng Solid (Strongest Start-Up Business Model) for those who have developed a business model that reflects their vision and gives exceptional customer value; Diskarteng Malikhain(Most Innovative Product) for those whose creative minds have brought forth fresh and unique products and services; and Diskarteng Eco-Friendly (Most Green Business) for those who have made conscious efforts to be socially responsible and environmentally friendly in their business. 

 

Meanwhile, the Scale Up division includes awards for Diskarteng Angat (Fastest-Growing Business) for those who have achieved exceptional growth with their robust vision and strategy; Diskarteng Digital (Best Multi-Channel Business), for businesses that have capitalized on the benefits of a multi-channel approach; and Diskarteng May Puso (Best Social Enterprise), for those whose goal meant giving back and empowering communities through their businesses. (The Scale Up Division entrants are required to have either a physical or e-commerce shop, and supporting documents including a DTI Permit and Barangay Certificate.)

 

A special award, the Diskarteng HomeBiz (Mompreneur’s Choice Award), will be given to the exceptional mompreneur whose business success story has greatly inspired others to do the same.

 

Gawad Madiskarte will award each winning mompreneur a P100,000 cash prize, a one-year PLDT Home Biz Plan, and a laptop to help them go further in their side hustle.

 

To add prestige to the event, Gawad Madiskarte has commissioned award-winning sculptor and contemporary artist Glenn Cagandahan for customized trophies as part of the major prizes. Cagandahan is known for his expressionist works featuring farmers, their family on carabaos, and other rural images that bring to mind the Filipino’s unwavering sense of hard work.

Libiran said that he has always been interested in extending his expertise in the lifestyle area. He had been researching on the country’s best perfume connoisseurs and creators and it just so happened that he met Oscar Mejia III in an artisan trade fair and reached out to him for a collaborative project! Mejia agreed, and the rest is history. 

Libiran and Mejia came up with the Dusk and Dawn collection, which is composed of aromatic products to set the tone of our home ambiance, as well as a perfume line! 

Dusk is an ode to grace and romance through refreshing notes of bamboo and white tea and velvety hints of chamomile and rose that’s wrapped in musk and amber. 

Dawn celebrates hope through the radiant notes of pomelo and olive with a lingering hint of sampaguita and patchouli. 

Libiran and Mejia expanded these two invigorating scents into four products: perfume candles, reed diffusers, and antibacterial room and linen sprays. All scented products are packaged with care instructions for optimal results. 

Libiran said that these products play a part in one’s well-being and improve focus and overall mood. 

The Dusk and Dawn collection will be made exclusively available online via our website and in all Francis Libiran stores and ateliers.

Moving forward with McDonald’s M Safe

As the country slowly eases restrictions after the pandemic’s recent surge, the health and safety of everyone remains to be the top priority of McDonald’s. 

 

The newly released M Safe video, “We feel good when you feel safe at McDonald's” shows a couple making their way to a scenic McDonald’s restaurant. Upon reaching their destination, McDonald’s crew and managers are one step ahead in making sure minimum health standards are followed, allowing them to experience feel-good moments while feeling safe, as they snack on their favorite McDo meals. 

People as top priority. For 40 years, McDonald’s has been committed to the safety of its employees, who in turn, keep their  customers safe. The newest M Safe campaign aims to assure and promise to continuously provide

safe, feel-good moments worth sharing.

 

“Two years into the pandemic, we have learned a lot in navigating this crisis. At this point, we need to change our mindset and move into treating covid as an endemic. We need to ensure that we keep ourselves and each other safe so we can go back to the things we have missed doing and move forward without fear but with cautious mindfulness. At McDonald’s, safety remains of utmost importance for our employees so we can deliver a safe experience for our customers in our restaurants and channels. We strongly encourage more people to do their part by getting vaccinated and following all minimum health and safety protocols. It is only by embracing this responsibility for ourselves, and by working together that we can contribute to the recovery of the country and move forward safely with our lives,” says Kenneth S. Yang, President and Chief Executive Officer of McDonald’s Philippines.

 

Moving forward with McDonald’s M Safe

 

To date, close to 100% of all McDonald’s employees nationwide have been fully vaccinated. Their next goal is to have all employees boosted by the end of March or April.

 

McDonald’s restaurants are also acquiring Safety Seal certifications. Close to 500 stores nationwide have passed all requirements and have been provided with a Safety Seal.  

 

For customers to have more safe options to satisfy their McDonald’s cravings, the QSR giant launched its Bike & Dine facilities. With Bike & Dine, bikers can mount their bikes safely on a ledge which doubles as a table. This initiative aims to provide cyclists a dining space after they ‘Ride Thru’. 

‘Ride Thru’ is another initiative of McDonald’s that encourages all types of vehicles, not just 4-wheeled ones, to order food via the drive thru lane without leaving their vehicle.

 

“Whether dine-in, delivery, or ride thru, our customers are assured that their food is safely prepared through our stringent global food quality standards and strict safe and healthy protocols placed,” added Yang.
