Barangay Pito, Bokod, Benguet – The Benguet Electric Cooperative (BENECO), in partnership with the Cordillera Career Development College (CCDC), successfully conducted a Medical and Legal Mission aimed at providing essential health and legal services to residents, particularly those in remote communities.

The mission was initiated by BENECO in coordination with Sir Abello Fernando, Director of BENECO District 8. The CCDC team included medical clinic personnel, Community Health Education (CHE) staff, administrative faculty, student nurses, midwifery students, pharmacy students, and the school driver. Together with a licensed pharmacist, legal professionals, and volunteers, the team ensured the organized and compassionate delivery of services.

Free medical consultations, basic health assessments, medications, and legal assistance were offered to residents. Student nurses and midwifery students assisted with patient assessments, vital sign monitoring, health education, documentation, and crowd management. Pharmacy students, under the supervision of the licensed pharmacist, supported medication dispensing and provided drug counseling. Their combined efforts were instrumental to the mission’s success and provided valuable hands-on community experience.

Residents expressed gratitude for the accessible services, emphasizing that the mission helped address common health concerns and legal needs without requiring long travel. Local officials also lauded the collaboration between BENECO and CCDC for its meaningful impact on the community.
