The series of public service activities began with the “Aksyon sa Undas”plugs which now regularly air on TV5, news channel Aksyon TV, and on Radyo Singko 92.3 News FM. Featuring relevant safety tips shared by the Rescue5 team to remind the public on what to do before they leave the house to visit the provinces, the plugs also serve as important reminders regarding the do’s and don’ts while inside cemeteries.

“We will not just deliver news, but we will also be providing assistance to our Kapatids who will be visiting cemeteries. This is part of our commitment to cause journalism,” said TV5 Public Service Head Sherryl Yao.

Aside from its public service plugs, Rescue5 will also be setting-up 24-hour first-aid stations at the Manila North and South Cemeteries from October 30 to November 1.

The Rescue5 team will be on full alert round-the-clock to assist the public who will flock to cemeteries to pay respects to their dear departed.

Cemetery-goers can also avail of the following services for free: wheelchair assistance for senior citizens and blood pressure monitoring. Free drinking water stations in partnership with Maynilad, phone calls via Smart Communications, and electronic device charging through One Meralco Foundation will also be provided.

For emergencies, Rescue5 can be reached via its hotline (02)-922-5155, Twitter account: @RESCUE5PH, and Facebook page:www.facebook.com/RESCUE5PH.
