Quezon Rep. David “Jayjay” Suarez is pushing for the decongestion of the lone government-run hospital in his province to strongly beef up its defenses against COVID-19 and other serious public health threats that may arise in future.

Suarez led Friday the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of the Lucena City General Hospital in Barangay Mayao, Lucena as he disclosed the implementation of several other public health projects in the province.Funded through the initiative of Suarez and Alona party-list Rep. Anna Suarez, the completion of the LCGH will give the Quezon Medical Center breathing space as the new medical facility will decongest the lone public hospital in the entire Quezon province.

The former Quezon governor said the COVID-19 pandemic experience has prompted him to quickly pursue the hospital project, stressing that this will better prepare the province in meeting the public health challenges posed by the dreaded pandemic. “The LCGH is a continuation of our strong commitment to modernize our healthcare system, and to be a national frontrunner of responding to the needs of our people,” Suarez said as he stressed the need to immediately decongest the QMC and swiftly make available to his constituents the best health care provision needed by them.

“Our program to expand and improve our existing healthcare system is proof of our commitment to responding to our province’s programs in deep and holistic ways possible,” Suarez said during the groundbreaking cerremony attended by provincial officials headed by Gov. Danilo Suarez, Vice Gov. Samuel Nantes, and Lucena City Mayor Roderick Alcala.He also lauded the provincial government for being proactive with its policies, which made it effective in handling the pandemic.
