Resolution to form an MDH Cancer Support Group and
to adopt Dr. Joson’s Cancer Crusaders Club as the MDH Cancer
Support Group
Whereas, the Manila Doctors Hospital’s business plan
consists of three interacting areas, namely: health service development, health
service delivery, and social responsibility;
Whereas, the Manila Doctors Hospital Cancer Program
should have a business plan that runs parallel with the business plan of MDH;
Whereas, the establishment of an MDH Cancer Support
Group is the best and the most tangible way of fulfilling the social
responsibility of MDH Cancer Program;
Whereas, there exists a cancer support group with the
name of Cancer Crusaders Club established by Dr. Reynaldo Joson whose members
have been patients of MDH and whose activities have been held in MDH for the
past 13 years since it started in 1988; and
Whereas, Dr. Reynaldo Joson is willing to let MDH
adopt his Cancer Crusaders Club as the MDH cancer support group;
Resolved, and be it resolved, therefore, that:
1.
MDH establishes a cancer support group to provide psychosocial therapy
for its cancer patients;
2.
MDH establishes a cancer support group that will be used to fulfil its
social responsibility in the field of cancer; and
3.
MDH adopts Dr. Reynaldo Joson’s
Cancer Crusaders Club as its cancer support group starting December 1, 2001.
