Gov. Roel Degamo, Rep. Henry Pryde Teves (Neg. Or., 3rd District), Bayawan city and barangay officials witnessed the opening of the Dauis Community Primary Hospital that was started during the term of former Gov. Emilio Macias II.

The province allocated around P6 million for the completion of the hospital that boasts of a basic emergency obstetric and newborn care for newborn babies and mothers.

Degamo appealed to the community to take care of all the equipment so that these can serve more patients longer.
