The City of Taguig’s Love Caravan has made its way to Brgy. Cembo on Saturday, January 6, delivering accessible medical, dental, and nutrition services to its residents. This is the second time the Love Caravan was conducted in the EMBO barangays.

Around 1,500 residents  sought medical consultations, with over 300 undergoing dental checkups or procedures. Additionally, more than 200 individuals took advantage of complimentary vaccination and laboratory services.

Following Makati’s abrupt closure of the 8 health centers in EMBO, the City Government of Taguig acted quickly to ensure that health services continue in these barangays.

Aside from the Love Caravan, the following facilities of the city are open to accommodate the residents from EMBO:

* Taguig-Pateros District Hospital (TPDH)

* 31 health centers

* 7 primary care facilities

* 3 Super Health Centers

* Dialysis Center

* 5 Animal Bite Treatment Centers

* 3 main laboratories; and

* 29 community-based laboratories

Taguig also launched Telemedicine in 10 EMBO barangays to augment in delivering health services. Makati reneged on its earlier commitment to turn over the health centers to Taguig last October 1, 2023.

The City has already stationed a satellite pharmacy for EMBO residents where they can avail for FREE the medicines prescribed during their teleconsulation. The satellite pharmacy is located at the 2nd floor, Unit E, Genesis Bldg., 19th Avenue, JP Rizal Extension, East Rembo.

The City’s Dialysis Center has started accepting dialysis patients from EMBO. Patients can access dialysis services, dialyzer, and erythropoietin  — all for free.

The Taguig Love Caravan is a mobile program that goes around the city three times a week, strategically reaching communities to provide health services.

This pioneering program has a wide range of free medical services, including consultations, check-ups, diagnostics and laboratory services, offering residents the opportunity to avail of essential tests such as CBC, urinalysis, Random Blood Sugar (RBS), blood typing, Chest X-ray, ECG, and ultrasound.

Mayor Lani Cayetano personally joined the Love Caravan and reassured residents of EMBO of continued delivery of services including health services.
