To further instill relevant life skills, the Local Government Unit of Miagao, under the administration of Hon. Engr. Oscar “Richard” S. Garin, Jr., Municipal Mayor, has established guidelines for providing Basic Life Support training for the Miagao Tour Guides’ Organization, Chief Tanods, and Barangay Tourism Council Focal Persons.
Life support training is a vital life skill that equips both guides and tourists with the knowledge to deal with medical emergencies. Prompt and appropriate first aid can save a life, and empowering our children with this basic skill could mean more lives can be saved in times of emergency or disaster.
Under this training, LGU Miagao includes programs developed by the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office, headed by Engr. Franco Carlo M. Monteclaro, and the Bureau of Fire Protection, along with the Office of the Municipal Tourism Officer, headed by Mrs. Mary Diane N. Flordeliza, MGDH I, Tourism Officer.
The training carries evidence-based guidelines for emergency cardiovascular care and psychomotor training to support age-appropriate instruction.
