Hospitals in Region 12 on 'white alert' for Holiday Season for Emergency Response


General Santos: The Department of Health (DOH) in Region 12 and all government and private hospitals in the region will be on code white alert beginning December 21 Saturday in connection with the upcoming Christmas and New Year celebrations.

Jenny Ventura, DOH-12 health education officer, said on December 20 Friday such move was aimed “to ensure immediate and proper response to emergency cases that might arise in the area during the celebrations and the long holiday break.”  “All hospitals and health facilities and our operations center will be on standby 24/7 during the period in anticipation of any eventuality that might occur,” Ventura said.

“It also means that a hospital’s emergency medicines, especially [for] trauma, are fully stocked and made available at the emergency room,” it said.
