THE HISTORY OF THE NATIONAL CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL

ON FEBRUARY 11, 1945, THE PHILIPPINE CIVILIAN ASSISTANCE UNIT, A RELIEF AGENCY, LATER
PLACED UNDER THE EMERGENCY CIVILIAN ADMINISTRATION (ECA) ESTABLISHED AN INDIGENT
CHILDREN’S CLINIC IN THE BUILDING OF THE DEFUNCT BUREAU OF PUBLIC WELFARE AT SAN
RAFAEL STREET, MANILA, UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF DR. VICTORIA KALAW-LINAN TO TAKE CARE
OF THE WAR REFUGEES, THE SICK AND UNDERNOURISHED CHILDREN. THIS WAS THE HUMBLE
BEGINNING OF WHAT BLOSSOMED TO BECOME WHAT PEOPLE NOW RECOGNIZE AS THE NATIONAL
CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL. WITH THE ABOLITION OF THE ECA, THE CLINIC BECAME PART OF THE SOCIAL
WELFARE COMMISSION.
BY VIRTUE OF COMMONWEALTH ACT NO. 705 IN OCTOBER 1945, THE INDIGENT CHILDREN’S CLINIC
ATTAINED ITS HOSPITAL STATUS AS THE INDIGENT CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL AND IN DECEMBER OF
THE SAME YEAR, DR. PEREGRINO H. PAULINO WAS DESIGNATED CHIEF OF THE HOSPITAL. THIS
EVENT CAN BE SPOKEN OF AS THE TURNING POINT. FROM ITS TEMPORARY QUARTERS AT SAN
RAFAEL STREET, THE HOSPITAL WAS TRANSFERRED TO A TWO-STOREY HOUSE AT 715
GASTAMBIDE STREET, SAMPALOC, MANILA IN 1947. THIS BUILDING, HOWEVER, PROVED
INADEQUATE FOR THE FAST GROWING HOSPITAL. AND BEING AT THE COMMERCIAL HUB OF MANILA,
THE DANGER OF FIRE BECAME AN EVER INCREASING THREAT. THE LOCALE ITSELF WAS FAR FROM
IDEAL. THE DIRECTOR, DR. PEREGRINO H. PAULINO, IN HIS INTENSE DESIRE AND AMBITION TO SEE
A BETTER AND MODERN HOSPITAL SOLICITED THE HELP OF FORMER SECRETARIES OF HEALTH AS
WELL AS THE OFFICIALS OF THE EXECUTIVE AND LEGISLATIVE BRANCHES OF THE GOVERNMENT.
THIS EFFORT SAW ITS REWARD WHEN THE LATE PRESIDENT ELPIDIO QUIRINO ISSUED
PRESIDENTIAL PROCLAMATION NO. 439 ASSIGNING THE MORI BICYCLE COMPOUND AT ESPAÑA
EXTENSION IN QUEZON CITY TO BE THE FUTURE SITE OF THE INDIGENT CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL.
IN 1952, REPUBLIC ACT NO. 731 CHANGED THE NAME OF INDIGENT CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL TO
NATIONAL INDIGENT CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL. REPUBLIC ACT 948, IN 1953, WAS PASSED
APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE HOSPITAL BUILDING. SUBSEQUENTLY,
REPUBLIC ACT NO. 1340, DATED JUNE 16, 1955 AMENDED REPUBLIC ACT NO. 731 CHANGING THE
NAME OF NATIONAL INDIGENT CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL TO ITS PRESENT NAME –THE NATIONAL
CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL.
JULY 28, 1955 SHINES OUT AS A MEMORABLE DAY FOR THE NATIONAL CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL FOR
IT WAS ON THAT DAY THAT THE CORNERSTONE OF THE NEW BUILDING WAS LAID. THE
CONSTRUCTION OF THE BUILDING STARTED IN DECEMBER, 1955. FINALLY, ON APRIL 26, 1958, THE
FIRST MODERN HOSPITAL BUILDING OF THE NATIONAL CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL WAS INAUGURATED.
ON JULY 1, 1960, DR. JOSE C. JOVEN WAS APPOINTED AS CHIEF OF THE HOSPITAL. HE ORDERED
THE LANDSCAPING OF THE GROUNDS AND THE REGULAR PAINTING OF THE BUILDINGS. ASIDE
FROM THE IMPROVEMENTS IN THE PHYSICAL FACILITIES OF THE HOSPITAL, THE PROFESSIONAL
AND SERVICE AREAS WERE GIVEN TOP PRIORITY. DURING HIS TENURE, THE HOSPITAL EXPANDED
EVEN MORE. THE HOSPITAL SERVICES OFFERED WAS PROOF THAT THE ORGANIZATION CAN STAND
SIDE BY SIDE WITH OTHER LEADING MEDICAL CENTERS DURING THAT TIME.
ONE ASPECT OF HOSPITAL DEVELOPMENT WHICH ALSO DESERVES MENTION IS THE NUTRITIONAL
REHABILITATION PROGRAM WHERE THE MALNUTRITION WARD GAINED MUCH ATTENTION. GRANTS
FOR GRADUATE STUDIES ALONG THIS LINE WERE OBTAINED ALLOWING SOME OF ITS DOCTORS TO
FURTHER STUDIES ABROAD.
IN AUGUST OF 1976, THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE HOSPITAL CHANGED HANDS WITH THE
APPOINTMENT OF DR. CRISTINA DE JOYA-AGREGADO AS THE INCOMING CHIEF. UNDER HER
MANAGEMENT, THE ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE OF THE HOSPITAL WAS AT ONCE REVIEWED AND
REVISED. THE OBJECTIVES OF THE HOSPITAL WERE FASHIONED TO JIVE WITH THE OVER-ALL
THRUST OF THE “NEW SOCIETY” UNDER THE MARCOS ADMINISTRATION. THE INCREASING NUMBER
OF PATIENTS FOUND THE NEED TO INCREASE THE HOSPITAL’S BED CAPACITY. THUS, IN 1977, AN
ADDITIONAL 3RD FLOOR OF THE MAIN BUILDING WAS CONSTRUCTED. SUBSPECIALTY CARE UNITS
WERE ESTABLISHED INCLUDING THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT, NEONATOLOGY UNIT AND A SURGICAL
UNIT. THE HOSPITAL SLOWLY BECAME RECOGNIZED ALSO AS A TRAINING HOSPITAL, THUS, THE
INCREASED NUMBER OF STUDENT AFFILIATES. THE PEDIATRIC RESIDENCY TRAINING PROGRAM
STARTED AND WAS ACCREDITED BY THE PHILIPPINE PEDIATRIC SOCIETY AS PHASE I AND II IN 1981.
APRIL 16, 1988 MARKED A NEW ERA IN THE HISTORY OF NATIONAL CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL WHEN DR.
MA. ISABELITA S. VITAL-GOZON ASSUMED THE POSITION OF MEDICAL CENTER CHIEF. ARMED WITH
ENTHUSIASM AND EXTRAORDINARY VITALITY, DR. GOZON DID NOT WASTE ANY TIME AND STARTED
PROPELLING THE HOSPITAL TOWARDS THE VISION OF BECOMING AN EXCELLENT “CENTER OF
WELLNESS”. THE CHIEF FACED THE CHALLENGES HEAD-ON AND FOR MORE THAN A DECADE, NCH
HAS STEADILY GROWN AND EVOLVED TO BECOME AN INSTITUTION WHOSE NOBLE MISSION IS TO
EASE THE SUFFERING OF CHILDREN FROM MALNUTRITION, THE DREADED RESPIRATORY AND
GASTROINTESTINAL DISEASES AND OTHER CHRONIC DISEASES LIKE TUBERCULOSIS, LEUKEMIA
AND OTHERS. NCH BECAME KNOWN FOR ITS HYDROCEPHALUS CENTER HENCE REFERRALS FROM
ALL OVER THE COUNTRY WERE BEING SERVED. ALSO UNDER DR. GOZON’S ADMINISTRATION,
WORKING CONDITIONS INCLUDING A CLEAN, ORDERLY PHYSICAL SURROUNDINGS AND
SUPPORTIVE EMPLOYEES HAVE BECOME COMMONPLACE, GIVING EVERYONE A CHANCE TO WORK
WITH AN ELEVATED MORALE. SOME OF THE PHYSICAL UPGRADING OF THE HOSPITAL FACILITIES
WERE THE INSTALLATION OF THE COMMUNICATION FACILITIES, RENOVATION OF THE CONFERENCE
ROOMS AND IMPROVEMENT OF WATER SYSTEM OF THE HOSPITAL. A 1000 SQUARE METER LOT
ADJACENT TO THE HOSPITAL WAS ACQUIRED TO GIVE WAY FOR THE FUTURE EXPANSION OF ITS
SERVICES. THE UPGRADING OF TRAINING AND CONTINUING EDUCATION WAS ALSO GIVEN SPECIAL
ATTENTION. POSTGRADUATE COURSE IN PEDIATRICS STARTED IN 1991, THEN WAS CONDUCTED
ANNUALLY CHAIRED BY THE DEPARTMENT’S COMPETENT CONSULTANTS.
IN FEBRUARY 2002, DR. MARIETA R. SIONGCO WAS APPOINTED AS THE NEW CHIEF OF HOSPITAL.
UNDER HER LEADERSHIP, TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT (TQM) PROGRAM WAS ORGANIZED AND
LAUNCHED. THIS BECAME A PRIORITY PROGRAM FOR THE HOSPITAL. QUALITY CIRCLE TEAMS WERE
CREATED IN ALL SERVICES AND DEPARTMENTS. WEEKLY TQM MEETINGS WERE CONDUCTED TO
REVIEW, WRITE AND STANDARDIZE VARIOUS PROCESSES. THIS EMPOWERED THE WORKERS TO
ACTUALLY EVALUATE AND IMPROVE ON THEIR OWN WORK PROCESSES.
IN SEPTEMBER 18, 2006, DR. ROBERT ENRIQUEZ BECAME THE NEW MEDICAL CENTER CHIEF.
DURING THIS TIME THE HOSPITAL WAS AT THE FOREFRONT THRUST OF DOH TOWARDS ENSURING
QUALITY ASSURANCE AND PATIENT SAFETY IN HOSPITALS UNDER THE STEWARDSHIP OF THE
SECRETARY OF HEALTH, FRANCISCO T. DUQUE III. WITH THIS THRUST, THE ENTIRE HOSPITAL
UNDER THE GUIDANCE AND DIRECTION OF TQM, WORKED TOGETHER AND ACHIEVED THE “CENTER
OF EXCELLENCE” ACCREDITATION FROM PHILHEALTH ON JULY 10, 2010. THE NATIONAL CHILDREN’S
HOSPITAL BECAME THE FIRST GOVERNMENT HOSPITAL TO ACHIEVE THE HIGHEST ACCREDITATION
GIVEN BY PHILHEALTH WHICH IS VALID FROM MAY 1, 2010 TO APRIL 30, 2013.
UNDER DR. ENRIQUEZ’S HEADSHIP, CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW SIX-STORY MEDICAL ARTS
BUILDING(BUILDING 4) WITH AN ESTIMATED COST OF PHP 119,000,000.00 WAS STARTED IN THE 1000
SQ. METER VACANT LOT. THIS NEW BUILDING WILL PROVIDE NEW SPACE FOR THE FOLLOWING:
OUTPATIENT DEPARTMENT, DOCTOR’S CLINICS, DENTAL SERVICES, IMAGING SERVICES SUCH AS
X-RAY, CT SCAN, PHARMACY COMPLEX AND ADDITIONAL PATIENT WARDS AND TRAINING ROOMS.
OTHER AREAS OF THE HOSPITAL IN THE OLDER BUILDINGS WERE IMPROVED AND RENOVATED TO
PROVIDE A BETTER ENVIRONMENT OF CARE FOR THE PATIENTS AND FOR THE STAFF AS WELL. THE
FOLLOWING WERE DONE SUCH AS REPAINTING OF THE INTERIOR OF ALL THE WARDS, FAÇADE OF
THE HOSPITAL AND ALL EXTERIOR, ASPHALT OVERLAY OF THE PARKING LOT, RENOVATION OF OPD
WAITING AREA, RE-ROOFING OF THE 7TH FLOOR BUILDING 3), IMPROVEMENT OF THE
MULTIPURPOSE CONFERENCE HALL SOUND SYSTEM,UPGRADING OF THE PABX SYSTEM AND
IMPROVEMENT OF OTHER OFFICES.
HOSPITAL PROGRAMS AND TRAININGS WERE FURTHER STRENGTHENED BY UPGRADING QUALITY
TRAINING OF PEDIATRIC RESIDENTS AND OTHER HOSPITAL STAFF. THE CONTINUED MEDICAL
EDUCATION THROUGH POSTGRADUATE COURSES AND DAILY CONFERENCES ARE ALREADY
INSTITUTIONALIZED. THE PEDIATRIC RESIDENCY TRAINING PROGRAM ACCREDITED BY THE
PHILIPPINE PEDIATRIC SOCIETY WAS UPGRADED TO LEVEL III AND A FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM IN
PEDIATRIC SURGERY WAS STARTED. NEW HOSPITAL PROGRAMS/SERVICES WERE STARTED SUCH
AS THE TOUCH THERAPY INSTITUTE (FIRST OF ITS KIND IN THE PHILIPPINES), DRUG DEPENDENT
TREATMENT AND REHABILITATION FOR MINORS AND THE STRENGTHENING OF THE TUBERCULOSIS
CONTROL PROGRAM THROUGH THE PUBLIC-PRIVATE MIX DIRECTLY OBSERVED THERAPY SHORT
COURSE (PPMD-DOTS). CARDIAC SURGERIES FOR CONGENITAL HEART DEFECTS WERE ALSO
STARTED. NETWORKING AND COLLABORATION WITH DONORS WAS STRENGTHENED PROVIDING
THE HOSPITAL WITH EXPENSIVE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT LIKE THE NEUROENDOSCOPE AND HEART-
LUNG MACHINE.
DUE TO THE UNTIMELY DEMISE OF DR. ENRIQUEZ, A NEW MEDICAL CENTER CHIEF, WHO IS ALSO
THE FORMER CHIEF OF MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL STAFF, DR. EPIFANIA S. SIMBUL TOOK OVER THE
HEADSHIP OF THE NCH ON JUNE 1, 2011 UP TO THE PRESENT TIME. UNDER DR. SIMBUL’S
LEADERSHIP, THE HOSPITAL CONTINUED ITS PURSUIT OF CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVING ALL FACETS
OF HOSPITAL OPERATIONS.
WORKING FURTHER ON OR ENHANCE THE PREVIOUS ACHIEVEMENTS, THE HOSPITAL STAFF
CONTINUED TO WORK TO SUSTAIN AND DELIVER EXCELLENT PATIENT CARE. IN THE FIRST YEAR OF
DR. SIMBUL’S TERM, THE HOSPITAL RECEIVED THE RED ORCHID AWARD, THE HIGHEST AWARD
GIVEN TO INSTITUTIONS FOR THE EFFORTS IN MAINTAINING 100 % TOBACCO FREE
ENVIRONMENT, GOLD AWARD FOR OSPITAL NA MALINIS AT MABANGO GIVEN BY THE DEPARTMENT
OF HEALTH, THE PHILIPPINE SOCIETY FOR QUALITY HEALTH CARE( PSQUA) PARTNER IN QUALITY
AWARD AND THE GAWAD KALASAG , 2ND PLACE , FOR BEST MEDICAL INSTITUTION ADVOCATING
DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT (NATIONAL GOVERNMENT HOSPITAL CATEGORY) GIVEN BY THE
OFFICE OF CIVIL DEFENSE ON DECEMBER 12, 2012.
CONTINUOUS QUALITY IMPROVEMENT (CQI) THROUGH QUALITY IMPROVEMENT STUDIES (QIS) WAS
INSTITUTIONALIZED IN NCH AND PIONEERED BY THE NURSING SERVICE. A TOTAL OF 12 QUALITY
IMPROVEMENT STUDIES WERE DONE FOR THE PERIOD OF 2011 AND 2012. OTHER AREAS SUCH AS
THE DEPARTMENT OF LABORATORY AND PATHOLOGY SERVICES ALSO STARTED TO DO QIS BY
MAKING A STUDY ON THE TURN-AROUND-TIME (TAT) OF LABORATORY RESULTS.
THE HOSPITAL PATIENT SAFETY PROGRAM WAS CREATED TO ENSURE SAFETY OF PATIENTS IN THE
ENVIRONMENT OF CARE. THE PATIENT SAFETY MANUAL WAS APPROVED ON JANUARY 11, 2012 AND
A HOSPITAL WIDE ORIENTATION WAS CONDUCTED IN THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY. FULL
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PATIENT SAFETY PROGRAM WAS STARTED IN MAY, 2012. TO MEASURE
EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PROGRAM A 2ND SAFETY CLIMATE SURVEY WAS CONDUCTED ON AUGUST
13-17, 2012. THE SECOND SURVEY SHOWED A SAFETY CLIMATE MEASURE OF 74% (+21.8% INCREASE
COMPARED TO THE BASELINE OF 52.5% IN 2010). THE CLINICAL PATHWAY FOR THE TOP TEN (10)
LEADING CAUSES OF ADMISSIONS WERE REVIEWED AND UPDATED INCLUDING THE COST.
CONTINUES MONITORING OF ITS IMPLEMENTATION AND RELEVANCE IS BEING DONE.
THE NURSING SERVICE, THROUGH THE CHIEF NURSE, DAISY LLARENAS, TRAINING OFFICER MA.
LENORE PASOL AND MS. CLAIRE BATULAN, WERE THE FOREFRONT CONTRIBUTORS IN THE
DEVELOPMENT OF THE NURSE CERTIFICATION PROGRAM OF THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH. THE
NURSE CERTIFICATION PROGRAM WILL ACCREDIT COMPETENCY OF NURSES IN PEDIATRIC
NURSING SPECIALTY. THERE WERE FOURTEEN (14) NCH NURSES ACCREDITED AS ASSESSORS FOR
THIS PROGRAM DURING ITS LAUNCHING IN NOVEMBER 23, 2012. TRAINING MODULES TO PREPARE
ALL NURSES FOR THIS NURSE CERTIFICATION WERE CRAFTED AND ARE ALSO AVAILABLE.
FACILITIES RENOVATION AND /OR IMPROVEMENT CONTINUED IN THE DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE
HOSPITAL SUCH AS THE RENOVATION OF THE 4TH FLOOR (BUILDING 2), COMPLETION OF THE NEW
MEDICAL ARTS BUILDING (BUILDING 4) THROUGH THE ASSISTANCE OF DPWH, COMPLETION OF THE
NEW OPERATING ROOM COMPLEX THROUGH THE ASSISTANCE OF HYUNDAI ASIA RESOURCES, INC.
BUDGET FROM THE DOH PROVIDED FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF NEW THREE STORY HOSPITAL
BUILDING TO REPLACE THE OLD THREE STORY BUILDING (BUILDING 1) TO START IN 2013. THE
RETENTION AND UTILIZATION OF THE HOSPITAL INCOME HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE
PROCUREMENT OF MORE EQUIPMENT, MEDICAL SUPPLIES AND OTHER NEEDS FOR THE
OPERATION OF THE HOSPITAL.
THIS YEAR (2013) WILL BE AN EXCITING AND CHALLENGING YEAR FOR AS THE HOSPITAL PREPARES
FOR ISO 9001: 2008 CERTIFICATION AND SHORTLY AFTER FOR ISO 15189 MEDICAL LABORATORY
ACCREDITATION. FELLOWSHIP PROGRAMS IN PEDIATRIC SUBSPECIALTIES LIKE HEMATOLOGY,
PULMONOLOGY, INFECTIOUS DISEASE, NEUROLOGY AND PEDIATRIC ANESTHESIA WILL BE
DEVELOPED. MORE RESEARCHES WILL BE ENCOURAGED AND SUPPORTED TO MAKE NCH A
CENTER FOR PEDIATRIC RESEARCH. COLLABORATION AND NETWORKING WITH PARTNER
ORGANIZATIONS LOCALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY WILL BE CONTINUED AND ENHANCED FOR MORE
COMPREHENSIVE AND CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT OF DELIVERY OF SERVICES TO OUR PATIENTS
WITH PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP. WITH THE DEDICATION AND COMMITMENT OF MANAGEMENT
AND ALL THE HOSPITAL STAFF, THIS WILL SURELY BECOME A REALITY FOR NATIONAL CHILDREN’S
HOSPITAL.
NATIONAL CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL HAS CONTINUALLY GROWN, EVOLVED AND EXPANDED WITH THE
CHANGING TIMES. THE HOSPITAL HAS BEEN THE FRONTRUNNER IN THE CARE OF PEDIATRIC
PATIENTS, IN DIFFERENT STAGES OF LIFE AND DIFFERENT TYPES OF DISEASES. ALTHOUGH
ALMOST 90% OF PATIENTS ARE INDIGENT, THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN DEPRIVED OF ADMISSION
DESPITE FINANCIAL CONSTRAINTS. THE DELIVERY OF SERVICES FOR INDIGENT PATIENTS IS DONE
THROUGH INNOVATION, SOURCING OUT OF FUNDS AND SPONSORSHIP, COLLABORATION WITH
GOVERNMENT AND NON-GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS. THROUGH THE YEARS,
THIS EDIFICE HAS BEEN AND WILL ALWAYS BE A LIVING TESTAMENT OF LOVING QUALITY PATIENT
CARE AND CONCERN FOR ALL FILIPINO CHILDREN.
