Flomo suggests that the mini-clinic should be equipped to handle a range of medical emergencies, from minor injuries to more critical health incidents. This initiative aligns with the goal of promoting institutional reforms and progressive advancements under the leadership of the Speaker, ultimately contributing to a healthier legislative environment.
The proposal has been forwarded to the Committee on Health and Ways Means, and Finance for further consideration.

This initiative reflects a proactive approach to enhancing the overall well-being of individuals working at the National Legislature.
In conclusion, the proposed mini-clinic at the Capitol Building represents a significant advancement in ensuring the health and safety of legislators, staff members, and visitors.
