Guantanamo.- The health management plan for 2025 was analyzed during the Annual Balance Assembly of the Municipal Health Directorate in the municipality of El Salvador, in Guantánamo Province
The meeting, held at the Francisco Castro Ceruto Polyclinic, turned into a forum for self-reflection and planning. Directors, specialists, and representatives from the Family Medical Offices rigorously evaluated the territory’s health indicators, identifying problems that require immediate attention.
One of the central themes of the discussion was the analysis of the Mother and Child Health Program (PAMI), in which it was noted that, despite efforts, weaknesses persist in the early detection of pregnant women, rigorous monitoring of high-risk pregnancies, and adherence to prenatal care protocols.
Participants agreed that it is imperative to strengthen intersectoral collaboration and health education in the community to reverse unfavorable indicators and guarantee safe pregnancy and childbirth, as well as optimal child development.
Faced with these shortcomings, the Assembly reaffirmed two fundamental tools: the correct application of the clinical method and the effective fieldwork carried out by family doctors and nurses.
During the meeting, the most outstanding staffs and professionals who distinguished themselves during 2025 for their dedication, achievements, and commitment to El Salvador public health, were awarded.
Awards were given to doctors, nurses, and technicians from various Family Medical Offices and health areas, highlighting their work in primary care, health promotion, and addressing complex epidemiological situations.
Dr. Yasiel Montoya Sierra, Municipal Director of Health, closed the Assembly, emphasizing that while deficiencies exist, the necessary tools and committed personnel are available to overcome them. “2026 must be the year of a full reconnection with our people, from the doctor’s office to the last home, always prioritizing our mothers and children,” she said.
