LION DANCE AT CMZ @ FEBRUARY 2016

February 4, 2016

It is CMZ CEO Atty. Jhihann Natividad's natal day and four days before Chinese New Year for 2016 as we welcome the Fire Monkey.

We were all excited in the hospital as we were expecting the Lion Dance (c/o Chong Hua High School) to visit us this day!

The Lions amaze the staff, patients and relatives of CMZ

What is the Lion Dance? Here is what I googled...

Lion Dance

According to traditional Chinese belief, the lion signifies courage, stability and superiority. The lion’s dance is performed to chase away ghosts and evil spirits, and since the monsters, ghosts, evil spirits and giants like Nian are afraid of loud noises, the dance has become a natural complement to the fire crackers' noise. Clashing cymbals, a gong and drums usually accompany this lively scene. The lion’s every movement has a specific musical rhythm. The music follows the moves of the lion, the drum follows the lion, the cymbals and the gong follow the drum player. Throughout the performance, the Lion will mimic various moods and demonstrate similar physical gestures allowing the Lion to look life-like

Here are some of the scenes as the Lion Dance took Ciudad Medical Zamboanga by storm and was welcomed by everyone who all hoped to receive great omen for the New Year!

CMZ BRAngay 27: Barangay Tugbungan

February 12, 2016 

Our second CMZ BRAngay Project was at the Barangay Hall of Tugbungan.

We had an initial hitch with one of the kagawads, but the day turned out to be very fruitful with many interested women, especially from the 4Ps group who were informed by their Purok leaders.

The participants said this is the first time a group ever came over to share about Breast Cancer awareness and we can really sense their interest to learn more.

We started with Breast Screening with health teaching followed by the  Breast Cancer Awareness lecture by Dr. Filipinas Rojo and the Breast Self Examination lecture and demonstration by Ms. Watchel Basilio.

Thank you to Kap Graciano for accommodating us and for giving us the opportunity to serve Bgy. Tugbungan. So nice to meet the Barangay Health Workers who we met during our first BRAngay at Tetuan!

By the way, the CMZ Breast Wellness Center continues to provide free breast awareness lectures with free clinical breast examinations to private and public groups interested to learn more about BREAST AWARENESS!


Please contact us at (062) 993-7330 local 1278 and look for Nely, Beth or Nanette for your queries and your schedules!!!
