RWM is allocating up to P200 million to ensure the project meets international standards. This will be the first DOH-compliant treatment and rehabilitation center in the country and will be built on a 1.9-hectare property in Brgy. Malagos, with the building spanning 1.2 hectares. The 224-bed facility will include recreational-therapy facilities such as basketball courts and multi-purpose halls.
