LPU Davao College of Health Sciences: Trained to Save, Ready to Serve 💪🩺

Last July 14 and 16, 2025, our MedTech and Pharmacy interns, together with their Clinical Instructors, completed a meaningful and life-saving Basic Life Support Orientation held on campus.

Guided by the skilled and dedicated team from Sasa Fire Station – Bureau of Fire Protection Region XI, our future healthcare professionals gained vital emergency response skills including CPR, rescue breathing, and AED use.

This hands-on training not only equipped them with essential knowledge but also built their confidence, strengthened their courage, and prepared them to respond with care and urgency in real-life emergencies.

This initiative is proudly aligned with United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) — ensuring inclusive and equitable quality training that promotes lifelong learning opportunities for all. 🎓🌍

Special thanks to Mr. Bernardo A. Ordaneza, Clinical Internship Coordinator, and to FO3 Atriu Ypilan, FO3 Caesar John Amistad, and SFO4 Idi Russ Nuñez for your expertise and commitment in making this training a success.

At LPU Davao College of Health Sciences, we uphold Veritas et Fortitudo — truth and courage — and serve Pro Deo et Patria — for God and country.

To our interns, your dedication brings you closer to becoming life-ready professionals. Keep rising. Keep serving. 💯
