We are proud to share an important milestone with our patients, families, and community.
Perpetual Help Medical Center – Las Piñas has been officially certified by the Department of Health (DOH) as a Cancer Specialty Center in a General Hospital.
This recognition reflects our continued commitment to providing quality and compassionate cancer care. It also strengthens our mission to support patients throughout their cancer journey.
Comprehensive Cancer Care in One Hospital
Every cancer journey is different. Patients may need several types of care at different stages of their treatment.
At Perpetual Help Medical Center – Las Piñas, we provide a wide range of cancer-related services. Our goal is to help patients access the care they need in a coordinated hospital setting.
Our services cover key areas of cancer care, including diagnosis, treatment, supportive care, and palliative care.
This approach allows our healthcare teams to work together based on each patient’s condition and treatment plan.
Supporting Patients From Diagnosis to Treatment
A cancer diagnosis can bring many questions and concerns for patients and their families.
Having access to the right medical team and services can help patients better understand the next steps in their care.
Our healthcare professionals work together to support patients throughout the process. This may begin with diagnostic procedures and continue through treatment and follow-up care.
Supportive and palliative care services are also available when appropriate. These services focus on patient comfort, symptom management, and quality of life.
Trained Healthcare Professionals
Quality cancer care requires both medical expertise and careful attention to patient safety.
Our cancer care team includes nurses who have received training from the Philippine Oncology Nurses Association (PONA). They work alongside doctors, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals involved in patient care.
This team-based approach helps support the safe handling and administration of specialized cancer treatments.
Our pharmacists also play an important role. They help ensure that medicines are prepared and handled according to established safety procedures.
Safety in Preparing Specialized Medicines
The preparation of specialized medicines requires strict safety measures.
At PHMC-Las Piñas, these medicines are prepared using a Level 3 Biological Safety Cabinet. This specialized equipment provides a controlled environment for medicine preparation.
These safety measures help protect patients and healthcare workers while supporting proper handling procedures.
Our investment in specialized facilities and equipment reflects our commitment to maintaining high standards of care.
Compassion Throughout the Cancer Journey
Cancer care is about more than medical procedures and medicines.
Patients also need understanding, clear communication, and support throughout their treatment journey. Families often need guidance as they support their loved ones.
Our team recognizes the importance of treating every patient with dignity and compassion.
From diagnosis and treatment to supportive and palliative care, we remain committed to being there for our patients at every stage.
A Milestone for PHMC-Las Piñas
Being certified by the Department of Health as a Cancer Specialty Center in a General Hospital is an important achievement for our institution.
More importantly, it represents our responsibility to continue improving the care we provide.
We thank our doctors, nurses, pharmacists, healthcare professionals, staff, and partners whose dedication helped make this milestone possible.
We also thank our patients and their families for continuing to place their trust in us.
As we celebrate this achievement, our commitment remains the same: to provide accessible, compassionate, and quality cancer care for the communities we serve.
