Doctor Angga from Dongin Prabhawa Clinic Examining a Resident from Amk Village, Thursday (11/11)
MAPPI – PT Dongin Prabhawa (DP), a part of Tunas Sawa Erma (TSE) Group, once again held a public health social service activity in Amk Village, Yakomi District, Mappi Regency, Papua, Thursday (11/11). This Corporate Social Contribution (CSC) program is TSE Group’s concern for the health of residents living around the company area.
The company management provided doctors and nurses to examine all Amk Village residents, from children, adults, to the elderly. In addition, the medicines needed by the patients were also given for free. The company also distributed masks and maintained strict health protocol because the activity was held during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Doctor Angga as the doctor from Dongin Prabhawa Clinic said that the average symptoms and pain suffered by the residents of Amk Village were Upper Respiratory Tract Infection (URTI) or shortness of breath, high blood pressure, and skin diseases.
“From the results of the examination, it was found that underage children were suffering from URTI symptoms caused by exposure to cigarette smoke. I suggest the gentlemen not to smoke inside the house or near the children,” he explained.
TSE’s concern for the health of Amk Village residents was welcomed by the local community. The Head of Amk Village, Charles Mahuze Kamuyen, expressed his gratitude for the health services provided by the doctors and nurses in Amk Village.
“I thank PT Dongin Prabhawa and the public relations team who have worked together with the doctors from the company clinic for coming to our village,” he said.
The health social service activity is carried out regularly by TSE Group as a deep concern from the company towards the people living around the company area. Previously, similar activities have been held in several villages, including Tagaepe, Nakias, Salamepe, and the latest was held in Banamepe. (pr)
