    The University of the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center, Inc. (UERMMMCI) recently inaugurated the Philippine School of Prosthetics and Orthotics (PSPO) at its campus in Quezon City.  PSPO is housed in the newly-constructed Tan Yan Kee Building which was designed for easier access and mobility for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs).  Ramps, special elevators, extra wide door frames and accessible restrooms are incorporated in the overall layout of the four-storey building to ensure convenience and efficiency for staff, patients, and students.  Classrooms for specific expertise in the field of Prosthetics and Orthotics, such as Assessment, Casting, Workshop, and Rectification are also strategically located in the building.
