PHAP supports greater access to healthcare through Project NARS

As part of their advocacy to promote greater access to healthcare, the Pharmaceutical and Healthcare Association of the Philippines (PHAP) through its PHAPCares Foundation, will sponsor an additional 100 nurses for deployment to 20 poorest municipalities in the country of the Project Nurse Assigned in Rural Service (NARS).

NARS is a joint project of the DOH, DOLE, PRC and the Board of Nursing.

Under the NARS project, the first batch of 5,000 nurse-trainees were deployed last month on a six-month tour of duty to the 1,000 poorest municipalities.
Another batch of 5,000 nurses will be deployed to poor municipalities during the second half of this year.

PHAP agreed to shoulder the Php 8,000 monthly allowance of the 100 nurse-trainees and will also donate medicines, first aid kits and other items to DOH hospitals covered under the NARS project.
