The PNP Special Action Force is celebrating its 28th Founding Anniversary on May 16, 2011 and one of its activities is the conduct of Medical and Dental Mission dubbed “Libreng Gamutan” at Sitio San Ysiro, Brgy San Jose, Antipolo City.

This activity is a follow-up of the successful medical and dental mission conducted at Sitio San Joseph of the same locality on February 25, 2011.

Among the services made available to the community were free consultations, medical and dental services, circumcision, EENT examination, minor surgery and haircut.

Ample medicines were also made available to the beneficiaries. Food and snacks were also served free to all the beneficiaries.

In a simple program, the local officials of the place conveyed their profound gratitude to all the organizers because despite the remoteness of their barangay, such mission was provided to them.  

They also added that it was the first ever medical mission conducted in their area. In ending, everyone called for unity and active partnership among the PNP, AFP, LGUs and the community for peace and development in their community.

At about 4:00 PM of that day, the activity ended and all the organizers packed-up and returned to their respective units in high spirits knowing that the residents benefited immensely from the free medical services provided.  

Additional medicines and vitamins for children were also turned-over to two (2) Sitio Chairmen for distribution to the residents in their respective areas.

The Medical and Dental Missions spearheaded by the PNP Special Action Force is part of its Community Assistance Program in all its areas of deployment which aims to enhance the relationship between the community and the Police for the promotion of peace and development.
