Waves of Awareness: ACF in Atimonan, Quezon

Oct 1, 2025 | Blog, Health, News, TB Active Case Finding | 0 comments

Known as a coastal gateway in Quezon Province, Atimonan became more than just a famous stop for travelersโ€”it became a hub of hope in the fight against TB.
During the ACF activity, the dedicated NTP Nurse of Atimonan RHU went beyond routine work, engaging participants in TB 101 discussions and raising awareness on Tuberculosis Preventive Treatment (TPT). His tireless efforts embody the frontline spirit in our battle against TBโ€”educating, inspiring, and protecting communities.
This initiative would not have been possible without the strong collaboration of our partners: DOHโ€“CHD CALABARZON, Quezon Provincial Health Office, Quezon Provincial DOH Office, PBSP (Philippine Business for Social Progress), and the Atimonan LGU. Together, we bring health services closer to the people, fostering stronger, TB-free communities.
