Kamakailan, lumahok ang mga kawani ng Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA) sa Sagip CPR, isang nationwide public health campaign ng Bell-Kenz Pharma, katuwang ang Philippine Heart Association, na naglalayong sanayin ang isang milyong Pilipino sa hands-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

Sa pamamagitan ng pagsasanay na ito, natutunan ng mga kalahok ang tamang paraan ng pagbibigay ng agarang tulong sa isang taong nakaranas ng cardiac arrestโ€”isang kasanayang maaaring makapagligtas ng buhay sa loob ng opisina, sa tahanan, o maging sa panahon ng mga kalamidad at iba pang emerhensiya.

Sa LWUA, naniniwala tayo na ang pagiging handa ay bahagi ng mahusay na paglilingkod sa publiko.

Kapag handa ang bawat isa, mas ligtas ang lahat. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’ง

The public, particularly all Local Water Districts, is hereby advised to exercise caution against an individual who has reportedly been contacting water districts while falsely claiming to be an engineer connected with our agency.

Based on reports received, the caller introduces himself using the name โ€œEngineer Castroโ€ and has been requesting contact details of water district officials. We wish to clarify that our agency has no employee or engineer by this name, and that the individual is not authorized to represent the agency or to obtain information on our behalf.

All Local Water Districts are strongly advised to verify anyone claiming to represent the agency through official communication channels before providing any information and to report any similar incidents immediately to our office, including the caller's phone number (if available), the date and time of the call, and any other relevant details.

We remind everyone to remain vigilant against fraudulent schemes and misrepresentation. Your cooperation is essential in protecting the integrity and security of our water sector institutions.
