To ensure the physical development and well-being of the forty-one (41) children, aged nineteen (19) days to twelve (12) years old, Tahanan ng Pagmamahal Children’s Home provided the kids with nutritious meals, fruits, milk, and multivitamins.
As a precaution to sickness and diseases, the shelter takes measures of prevention via vaccinations. Babies were immunized with Pentavalent 1, Oral Polio Vaccine 2, and Hepatitis A. Other children were given Vitamin C to boost their immune systems.
For health and medical updates, three (3) children were discharged from the isolation room of Tahanan ng Pagmamahal. These children had bacterial infections, coughs, colds, and lumbosacral pain, and they fully recovered from their illnesses. One female toddler, who had undergone club foot surgery, completed her physical therapy and is now undergoing medical clearance for the removal of steel plates in both her legs by the end of July 2024. Another two-year-old child with clubfoot is currently undergoing therapy with a special shoe worn while sleeping, which is removed when awake. Another male child is undergoing physical therapy for an elbow deformity. Additionally, two (2) children were referred to an allergologist and genetics doctor.
All school-aged children are now enjoying their summer vacation. This allows them to participate in various outreach activities such as games, arts and crafts, singing, and dancing. They also enjoy watching magic shows, bubble shows, and puppet shows organized at the shelter. These activities are made possible by generous and kind hearted individuals (like you) and organizations who have tirelessly blessed our kids. Thank you!
