- Overview
Our Lady of Lourdes College Foundation traces its humble beginnings to the pre-war years when a young man, the medical student of the University of the Philippines had a near-death experience while schooling. He pledged to Our Lady of Lourdes that one day he would put up a hospital in her honor. [1]
That vision remained a dream until 1960 when the young man, now a practicing surgeon put up a small medical clinic at Daet, Camarines Norte. Initially the clinic attended to varied cases. Barely two years, after its establishment, Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital expanded to 25 bed capacity. In 1965, it further expanded its bed capacity to 40 and in 1977 into a 100 bed capacity hospital. [1]
Dr. Abundio Palencia, the visionary, the dreamer and founder highly sensitive to the concerns of his people, saw the need of opening a school Midwifery which he envisioned would help produce the manpower resources urgently needed by various health agencies. [1]
Nineteen seventy seven (1977) saw the birth of the Our Lady of Lourdes College Foundation School of Midwifery with an initial enrolment of eighty (80) and a faculty force of ten (10). [1]
Through the dedicated service and unwavering loyalty to the institution of the faculty members of the school of midwifery and with full administrative support of the school authorities, the school of midwifery made a name for the school by producing board topnotchers through the years: 69% School Passing Average (S.P.A) in 1988; 79.7% S.P.A., 62% National Passing Average (N.P.A), in 1992; 88% S.P.A in 1993.
