Teaching Hospital Administration in UPCPH - A Legacy
I got a Master in Hospital Administration (MHA) degree in 1991 from the University of the Philippines College of Public Health (UPCPH). What instigated me to take the MHA in 1989 were 1) I was appointed as the Assistant Medical Director of Manila Doctors Hospital in 1989 and 2) as Director of the Postgraduate Institute of Medicine of the University of the Philippines College of Medicine (also appointed in 1989), I was to supervise the Diploma in Clinical Medicine being pushed by then Dean Marita Reyes (the Diploma course contained a subject in Administration).
After graduation, I have been invited to give lectures to MHA students of CPH and its summer short courses on hospital administration starting 1992 or 1993. As of 2018 (26 years now), I am still being invited. Every time, I would be invited, I readily agreed.. One, return service to my alma mater, UPCPH. Second, I consider teaching MHA students as a way of improving the hospital services for the Filipino people. Thus, a legacy that I leave and will leave behind for UPCPH, its masteral students and the Filipino people.
I am thankful to the following UPCPH faculty who have invited me before and up to now (2018):
1. Dr. Ruben Caragay
2. Dr. Fernando Sison
3. Dr. Edgardo Recon
4. Dr. Emerito Faraon
5. Dr. Richard Javier
6. Dr. Carlos Primero Gundran
