BANGUG Immersion Blog 2

This blog is the continuation of my journey to industry immersion...

This journey covers April 24 - to April 30, 2017.



After the rejections happened, we were in hurry because time flies faster and yet we still don't have a company where we are so excited to render our immersion. We are thinking, "Why is it that some of the companies are so afraid to cater us?". The next option that we had is to try our luck on the Local Government Unit here in Bacnotan, La Union and probably the last stop. As a courtesy, we first visited the office of the Municipal Mayor in the person of Mayor Francis Fontanilla and luckily he was there. We presented the letter to him and he signed the letter. We are so blessed for this day. Yes! Finally, we are accepted. He then assigned us to the Municipal Health Office.


April 25-27, 2017 
I am thinking what would be my contribution to the Health Office or what would be my research? These things made me bothered at this time. We talked to the Municipal Health Officer in the person of Dr. Annabelle Pada and  she was so glad that we are there. She also let us observed their operations. On the following day, in preparation for the upcoming "Town Fiesta" they are rendering a Medical Mission which they are calling "Dur-As". It is a program of the LGU of Bacnotan together with the medical team wherein they are giving medical check-up, dental services and etc. for free. Pictures below were taken during the "DUR-AS".

"DUR-AS" is the project of the municipality of Bacnotan headed by our very own Mayor FRANCIS FONTANILLA.
We arrived at the venue of "DUR-AS" earlier so as you can see on the picture more seats are still vacant.

The on-going operation of "DUR-AS". The team was visiting all the barangays of the town to render their program regarding Medical Mission.
I have observed during the operation that some of their operations are still done manually. From this observation I can say that Information Technology would be a great help for them. I am interested regarding health researches but something's keeping me bothered and my heart says "why don't you try on Agriculture". Since some of my past researches focuses on agriculture, without a second thought we then decided to visit the Municipal Agriculture Department. The department is offering rice, corn, livestock, fisheries and etc. The Municipal Agriculturist was not around during our visit so we interviewed the available coordinators. The fisheries coordinator entertained us with a smile. We even visited a fish pen with bangus and tilapia and talked to the fish pen operator. We also observed the operation, they let us feed the fishes also. It feels great to see the many fishes eating while giggling! 


April 28-30, 2017
Since the Municipal Agriculturist was not around last time because of her busy schedules. We decided to visit her first hour in the morning. We explained to her our intention and she said, it's good to know that we are interested in Agriculture area. She also let us talked to the different area coordinators. From there, we have to decide on what area would be our focus and we need to think and move faster due to short period of time to prepare because summer class will end so soon...

This is all for this week so busy yet productive week. See you in my next journey through industry immersion..
