To provide essential needs, the Philippine Red Cross (PRC) distributed hygiene kits to elderly inpatients of the Female Aged Care and Wellness Unit of the National Center for Mental Health (NCMH). | ManilaBulletin

Secretary General Gwen Pang and PRC Board of Governors Vice Chairperson Corazon Alma De Leon led the distribution of 150 hygiene kits on May 30.

Pang, a nurse, explained that internal factors like impairment and disabilities and external factors like physical environment, inequalities, discrimination, and stigma make it difficult for people to access and practice hygiene. "Through our hygiene promotion and provision of hygiene kits, we hope they feel loved and not forgotten," she added.

"The PRC develops initiatives to accommodate individuals with specific needs because they are important to us," Gordon said.
