4. How did Lingkod E.R.-UST started? Who is its founder?

Lingkod E.R. was founded by Dr. Luisa Puyat back in 1997. Back when she was taking her
final year of her pre-med course in UP, she was exposed to the harsh reality of what actually
happens inside the emergency room. She witnessed a great number of patients who suffer
due to financial problems, this is where she decided to build her own organization. Lingkod
E.R. shoulders the cost of emergency healthcare incurred by the poor in the E.R., so they can
be treated with respect and dignity that each individual deserves.

3. What posiMon are you currently interested of filling in the near future? Why?

1st Choice 2nd Choice

P.R.O AUDITOR

Since I’m under P.R.O, I was curious
what it would be like if I applied for
P.R.O.. Maybe if I am accepted for the
position of P.R.O, I can improve the way
we promote the org and can think of
new projects that for sure will be
beneficial for the org.
I wanted to try being the auditor out of
curiosity. The auditor is also in-charge of
the inventory and all the things the org
will use and I would really like to
improve the past system since it was
quite difficult to coordinate with the
logistics in the past.
