THE DSWD Field Office VI is increasing its number of workers in Lingap Para sa Masa (Libreng Gamot Para sa Masa) to cater all the clients coming from different places effective today.

DSWD6 Assistant Regional Director for Operations, Delia Bagolcol says “We are going to add three Social Workers to accommodate and serve all the clients of Lingap sa Masa.”

She said the agency ensures that its employees in the Lingap Para sa Masa always accommodate and serve clients from Monday to Friday, 8 o’clock in the morning to 5 o’clock in the afternoon.

The department emphasizes that only DSWD Lingap sa Masa workers can issue numbers to clients from 8 in the morning.

“We strongly advise that clients must not fall in line as early as 2 a.m. since it is a waste of time and we observe the No Fixer Policy,” added  Bagolcol.

The agency aims to serve the public efficiently and effectively especially to those who are in crisis. The people will also be updated on updates in implementation, said Bagolcol.

Libreng Gamot Para sa Masa or Lingap sa Masa program  is the presidential fund that  provides assistance through the issuance of guarantee letters for the purchase of medicines from hospital pharmacies or from partner drug stores, wherein the DSWD will be the lead agency who will manage and implement it and ensure that the programs is properly distributed to the indigent citizens.
