Pasay City South High School under the leadership its dynamic school principal, Mrs. Emilia L. Tolentino continuously put its effort to provide needed support to its teaching and nonteaching staff, parents and learners in the midst of the COVID 19 pandemic.

The school does not only provide essential health materials with the help of its countless generous partners and stakeholders, but also provide both social and mental health awareness programs. This is made possible through the school’s collaboration with the Bayanihan Doctors.

Last July 24, a webinar on mental and social awareness was conducted by the Bayanihan Doctors during the Stakeholders Convergence. This was attended and participated by the PCSHS Teachers, Parents and students.  They discussed the spectrum of Depressive Disorders. They also elaborate about Mental First Aid and what to do when they encounter patients presenting with signs and symptoms of Depression. Most importantly, they emphasized the role of Mental Health during this crisis and beyond.

They were joined by  Dr. Aimee Rose Tan-Estacio, A Neurologist-Psychiatrist. Hosted by our very own, Dr. Karl Ablola and Dr. Celine Fider.
