Philips Offers End-to-End Solutions Across The Health Continuum

In the Philippines, the healthcare delivery system is dominated by the public sector while being supported by private healthcare service providers. According to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) community, Philippines is one of the fastest growing healthcare markets in the region. However, the lack of infrastructure and human resources strain the healthcare delivery system in the country due to challenging circumstances such as a huge gap in the number of medical professionals required to cater the needs of the growing population.

Through the launch of the breastfeeding room and dream room, Philips demonstrates how their solutions can be used in real-life situations and through multiple health-medical scenarios.
