BAYAMBANG, Pangasinan -- Two rural health units in barangay Carungay and Macayocayo here are underway to serve the medical needs of the residents.

Eddie Melocorio, head of the municipal engineering office, on Monday said the two RHUs have been funded with PHP1.1 million each from the municipal development fund.

He said RHU 3 in Barangay Carungay and RHU 4 in Barangay Macayocayo were built on a 100 square meters lot donated by private citizens.

Melocorio added RHU 3 is now on finishing stage and is expected to be completed in May this year, while RHU 4 will be completed by June.

The two RHUs are in addition to the existing RHU 1 located in barangay Poblacion and RHU 2 in barangay Wawa.
