Pre-hospital care helps patients in need of advanced care to be treated before going to the hospital to buy them more time for proper more definitive management at the hospital. The documentary just shows us how bad pre-hospital care at the community level as well as the Philippine healthcare system as a whole. How can we buy our patients time if we don’t have the equipment, infrastructure, human resources and leaders that will promote proper pre-hospital care to our patients? “Human ambulances” such as that shown in the documentary where they walk for hours just to seek medical care obviously is not an ideal setup for patients seeking emergency care. According to the video, there are still Filipinos who die without even seeing a doctor. This just shows how healthcare is still inaccessible in the disadvantaged areas of the country.
