SKILLS FOR BETTER HEALTHCARE. Director Eduardo C. Janairo, chief of the Department of Health in Calabarzon (DOH-Calabarzon), said Basic Filipino Sign Language (FSL) must be introduced and become an integral part of the health care system for those having difficulty hearing or speaking. Jainaro was speaking during the three-day training for health workers on the First Basic FSL in San Mateo, Rizal from July 3-5, 2019. He added that health workers and primary care providers, such as barangay health workers, must have the basic skills in communicating and understanding the needs and concerns of these patients in order to provide the proper treatment and care.
