(Legazpi City, August 1, 2025) The Provincial Government of Albay is working to speed up the construction of the new Pio Duran Memorial District Hospital in Barangay Caratagan.
The move was due to flooding of the original hospital in Barangay 2, Poblacion, caused by the recent Southwest Monsoon.
Albay Governor Noel Ebriega Rosal said the flooding highlights the need to enhance primary healthcare services in geographically isolated and disadvantaged areas.
The original hospital is set to be relocated to a new site in Caratagan due to these flooding issues.
Governor Rosal emphasized that this development aims to improve healthcare quality and outcomes for underserved coastal communities.
He also reaffirmed his commitment to upgrading the healthcare system and workforce as a key priority of his administration.
