MELLPI PRO EVALUATION – BARANGAY BUAYAN
On October 7, 2026, the City Nutrition Evaluation Team (CNET) conducted the Monitoring and Evaluation of Local Level Plan Implementation (MELLPI) Pro for the Barangay Nutrition Council (BNC) of Barangay Buayan to assess its functionality, governance, and implementation of local nutrition programs.
The evaluation team was led by City Nutrition Program Coordinator Ms. Imelda A. Silvero, RND, with representatives from the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), Department of Education (DepEd), DOH Human Resources for Health (DOH-HRH), and the City Health Office – Nutrition Office.
Using the MELLPI Pro Tool developed by the National Nutrition Council (NNC), the team assessed six key dimensions covering nutrition governance, organizational structure, management functions, policies, interventions and services, and changes in nutritional status.
The evaluation yielded a good result, reflecting the BNC’s efforts to strengthen local nutrition governance and improve community-based nutrition services. It also identified good practices and areas for improvement to sustain effective nutrition interventions.
Dr. Roland Jay F. Basmillo, Head of Baluan Rural Health Unit (RHU), expresses his appreciation for the BNC’s collective efforts in promoting better nutrition and health outcomes. He also recognizes the support of the Barangay Local Government Unit (BLGU) of Barangay Buayan, led by Barangay Chairperson Hon. Rogelio Solis Sr. and Committee on Health Chairperson Hon. Marieta Mission, in advancing local nutrition initiatives.
The Baluan RHU extends its gratitude to the City Nutrition Evaluation Team, for their guidance and valuable recommendations. Recognition is also extended to Ms. Retchie S. Bravo, Barangay Health Associate (BHA), the Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNS), Barangay Health Workers (BHWs), and the entire Barangay Buayan Health Station team for their continued dedication to community-based nutrition programs.
