The Department of Health and the City Government of Zamboanga have officially inaugurated the Doña Isabel C. Climaco Main Health Center in Governor Ramos, Santa Maria. This health facility marks a significant milestone in strengthening medical services for local residents.
The blessing and inauguration ceremony took place on Thursday, May 14, bringing together key officials, health workers, and community members. Mayor Khymer Adan Olaso joined regional health officials to witness the formal turnover.
During the event, the mayor extended his gratitude to the regional health office and the City Health Office for their collaborative efforts. He emphasized the local government commitment to improving public wellness infrastructure and medical services.
Strengthening Local Healthcare Infrastructure
The health center serves as a project of the national health department. The local administration will oversee its future rehabilitation and maintenance to ensure continuous and reliable care. This setup will help bring medical resources directly to the community, helping residents save on travel time and costs.
The event was also attended by Vice Mayor Maria Isabelle Climaco, City Health Officer Dr. Dulce Miravite, and barangay officials. Medical students from Ateneo de Zamboanga University and other stakeholders joined the celebration to show support.
Their presence highlights the shared community effort in launching this health hub.
Key Services and Objectives
The new health center aims to provide comprehensive medical attention to families in Santa Maria and nearby neighborhoods. The facility is equipped to handle outpatient consultations, immunizations, and preventive wellness programs. Here are the main goals and services of the newly opened health center:
- Provide free outpatient consultations and physical examinations.
- Administer routine childhood immunizations and maternal health checkups.
- Distribute essential vitamins and prescription drugs for chronic illnesses.
- Conduct health education seminars on nutrition and disease prevention.
- Facilitate early screening for common communicable and non-communicable conditions.

Along with physical healthcare, the local government supports holistic wellness initiatives. Similar efforts include active mental health awareness programs across the region. Promoting health education remains a cornerstone of municipal development plans.
Community Wellness and Development
The inauguration of the health center is part of a broader development plan. The local government continues to prioritize essential public services for all sectors, including the youth and the elderly. For instance, the administration works closely with other agencies to support the national social pension program to assist vulnerable sectors.
Infrastructure improvements also extend to local learning centers and schools. Plans are underway to support education modernization in Zamboanga City during the upcoming school year. These integrated projects aim to enhance the overall quality of life for the population.
