New Requirements: X-Ray & Medical Examination

For the ENROLLEES for this new school year..we have new requirements to comply.

It's the X-Ray & Physical/Medical Examination.

It is worth 200.00 if you''ll have it inside the campus. You can also have them outside the campus but they are limited to PUBLIC hospitals/clinics only.

Here are some public Hospitals Keivin from UCC FB group has generously shared:

Keivin Karl C. Cabreros:

Here's a list of some public hospitals in Caloocan, Malabon, Manila and Quezon city area.

1) San Lazaro Hospital - Sta. Cruz,Manila

2) Philippine Heart Center - East Avenue, QC

3) Quirino Memorial Medical Center - project 4, QC...

4) Diosdado Macapagal Hospital

5) Pagamutang Bayan ng Malabon - Maya-Maya Street cor.
Dagat-...Dagatan Avenue

I suggest try to get their contact # for inquiries to lessen the hustle, sorry I
forgot to include it.

This has been so controversial to UCCian netizens on Facebbook. A lot of them have expressed dislike but some are open-minded enough.

These are the reactions of UCCians from the FB group.

What's the rationale for this? What if there's a problem with their results? Don't tell me that they have the authority to take away the students right of education! At least let the students know the rationale behind these requirements.

Kung sakaling may comunicable disease man tayo malalaman natin..maagapan at higit sa lahat di makakahawa sa kapwa estudyante.

meron na pala yan..dito ko lang sa FB narinig..ay huli na naman ako.anyway..I think it's just necessary to have those xray & physical checkups..nung first year tayo last na ginawa yun diba?? so I guess there's possibility na makaacquire tayo ng sakit..I know masakit sa BULSA yan pero PARA SATIN din yan!! dilang yan pauso.

hindi naman siguro papaalisin sa univeristy if they are diagnosed with a certain disease. think on the positive side, kapag nalaman ang kalagayan ng isang estudyante e siguro they'll advise them to take meds and have check ups. wala akong nakikitang mali bukod lang sa late na sinabi.

Seriously for TB? This is so unusual I haven't heard any universities having medical requirements for preventing this disease aside from drug check-ups and h1n1 prevention measures. Anyway does our university also took measures to prevent h1n1 virus before or perhaps drugs check-ups?

yan ang wala ata. ni hindi nga namin alam para san talaga ung medical requirements na yun. and ito pa, we are not allowed to have a medical examination to private hospitals. we are forcing to the public hospitals. see? what kind of admin is that. talagang tinutulak kaming sa loob na ng school magpa medical. x(

Honestly, I see a lot of possibilities around here though theres no concrete basis but I know you guys and my fellow uccians smell something fishy around here at least. But like I've said there's no concrete basis. I just hoped that ssc did something to work this out anyway we cannot blame them but at least let us know that they do their best for students common good.

Whatever the true rationale or interest behind this requirements you guys are still bound to comply since it's already late to arrange things with the admin. Nevertheless good luck to your check-ups.

WHY ARE WE not allowed to go to private ONES?? - dahil nababayaran po ang IBA (take note- IBA).kapag sa Public naman mas mahigpit sila at MAS MURA!

Anne Loraine Misajon:

haha! mahal ng xray! wa pera pano yung mga student n awa pera!!!! wa enrol? hehehehe

Rea Castillo:

200... Aw. Kataas naman...

Andrea Lean R. Mandig:

arts of corruption

I say:

We open our minds first before we react. Let's ponder on it for a while before accusing anybody of anything evil.

I know the admin of our univ. has their share of blunders..but that doesn't mean they always do so.

Think of this NEW POLICY as a security for you UCCian.

This maybe a LIABILITY now but it (your health)will be your ASSET in the future.

Let's take this as an example:

a friend of yours contacted a COMMUNICABLE disease..at nahawa ka. Kung nagpamedical check up ka madadiagnose to at maagapan ng mas maaga. at di na rin MAHAHAWA ang iba. It doesn't necessarily mean you can't enroll. If you will not be allowed to enroll due to your illness that's now what we call a deprivation of our right to education.

Let's take this policy as a precaution. Not a threat.

Let's be OPEN-MINDED because that the real sense of our schooling.

"Followership is a discipline of supporting leaders and
helping them to
lead well. It is not submission, but the wise and good care of
leaders, done
out of a sense of gratitude for their willingness to take on the
responsibilities of leadership, and a sense of hope and faith in their
abilities
and potential.”

— Reverend Paul Beedle
