Biblical Foundation “It is like this. A man takes mustard seed, the smallest seed in the world, and plants it in the ground. After a while it grows up and becomes the biggest of all plants. It puts out such large branches that the birds come and make their nests in its shade." (Mark 4:31-32) FOUNDATION OF PERPETUALITES’ IDENTITY TOPIC 1 The History of UPHS 1. The Founders A. Dr. Jose G. Tamayo – was a native of Malasiqui Pangasinan. - was born on September 10, 1920 at the Philippine General Hospital, manila. - Parents: Mariano Tamayo (Alcala, Pangasinan) : Maria De Guzman (from Malasiqui, Pangasinan) He finished his studies as Doctor of Medecine at UST. His field of specialization is OB-Gynecology. Died on August 6, 2002 at the age of 82yrs old. B. Dra. Josefina Laperal Tamayo Was a native of Binan, Laguna. Born on February 18, 1920. Finished her studies as Doctor of Medicine at UST She specialized in Pediatrics. Died on April 20, 1987. Dr. Jose (fondly called Dr. J) and Dr. Josefina (fondly called Dra. Nena) were married. They were blessed with twelve children: Antonio, Ma. Theresa, Marianito, Arcadio, Roberto, Manuel, Rafael, Marciana, Florenciana, Jose Mauro, Ma. Consorcia, and Joseph Victor. The history of Perpetual Help System is classified into three stages. The Pre-foundation Period (1944-1953); the Foundation (1965-1974); and the Satelliting Period (1973-present). 2. THE PRE-FOUNDATION PERIOD (1944-1953) Dr. Jose is a quite “doctor to the barrio.” He disregarded more ambitious career possibilities to be able to serve his fellowmen even to the extent of going beyond the sworn Hippocratic Oath. He and his wife embarked in a determined quest to find ways of providing the best health care to the populace. The quest led them to an odyssey that traversed two institutions of public service in health and education. When this dream to serve the poor in the community became a reality they realized that their best was not good enough. For them, the services they rendered were so limited and only within the realm of their sphere of action as doctors. With an unquenchable thirst to serve every Filipino and inspired by his seal to reach out to his fellowmen, the idea of multiplying themselves came to fore in the form of establishing an educational institution. Dr. J is remembered for his feeling of fulfillment and hardships of serving in a rural area. These experiences left an indelible mark in his mind on how these folks must be able to avail of the proper health care they rightfully deserve 3. THE FOUNDATION (1965-1974) Dr. Jose marriage to his classmate Dr. Nena epitomized an ideal partnership. Their faith in God and diligence toward work opened for them wonderful opportunities. Dr. J and Dra. Nena built their modest clinic which later became a hospital in Malasiqui, Pangasinan to fulfill a commitment to help the indigent barrio folks. Another clinic which they set up at the back of the University of Sto. Tomas, Manila became another hospital and branched into the College of Nursing. After the foundation of Perpetual Help College - Manila, in 1968 the couple continued their work until they established other campuses in Laguna. Dr. J and Dra. Nena were devotees of our Mother of Perpetual Help of Baclaran, hence the name of the system. 1. Perpetual Help College – Manila (1968) 2. Perpetual Help College - Malasiqui (Pangasinan) (1970) 4. THE SATELLITING PERIOD (1973-1980) It was in third stage that the Perpetual Help College of Laguna came into birth in 1976 through the unselfish commitment of its founders: Dr. Jose G. Tamayo and Dr. Josefina L. Tamayo, to serve and to bring education and healthcare to the less urbanized communities. University of Perpetual Help System Laguna and UPH-Dr. Jose G. Tamayo Medical University (1976) It was but a fitting tribute that the granting of the charter of the University of Perpetual Help System was given the Commission on Higher Education on the 10th death anniversary of Dr. Josefina that was in April 20, 1997. The University of Perpetual Help System (UPHS) is composed of two subsystems, namely: the University of Perpetual Help System JONELTA, a subsidiary of the JONELTA Group of Companies and the University of Perpetual Help System DALTA which is a subsidiary of the DALTA Group of Companies.
