San Carlos City uses modular houses as isolation facility
FIVE Modular Smart Houses were procured by the San Carlos City government as an additional isolation facility to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.
The City Information Office on Tuesday said the procurement was made to further strengthen its response against the onslaught of the virus.
“Five Modular Smart Houses will be set up dedicated primarily for isolation of asymptomatic patients referred by the hospital,” CIO said in a statement.
Persons in isolation at the ‘smart houses’ will be provided free food, vitamins, medical monitoring, security by the city government.
The procurement was made after the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) instructed the LGUs that in case the COVID-19, beds in government hospital becomes limited, asymptomatic patients will be referred to local governments for care and treatment.
San Carlos City is the first LGU in the province that will have modular houses to serve as isolation facility for confirmed cases. (Jerick Pasiliao)
