Dr. Theresa M. Mostasisa has been asked to join the 2011 San Francisco Police
Department Philippines Exchange Training also known as PET as the first civilian
guest speaker to speak on Basic First Aid and Medical Emergencies. The Team
leader and one of the founders Lieutenant Eric Quema, had the vision
of incorporating first aid education into this 10th year of United States Law Enforcement
Training brought to the Philippines.  The presentations took place in various cities in the Phlippines
during January 19th through the 26th.  Those trained were not only Philippine
Law Enforcement but included the Philippine National Police (PNP) and Bureau of Jail Management personnel but also included Barangay/Bantay Bayan groups and many Philippine Business Corporations.  Dr. Mostasisa and the PET Team of US law enforcement officers headed by Lt. Eric Quema collaborated to present, ”Medical Emergency Training for Law Enforcement Personnel – An Introductory Series” and “Medical Emergency Training for Business Corporations – An Introductory Series”  was well received.  PET is a part of FALEO (Filipino American Law Enforcement Organization).  The President of FALEO Sgt. Inspector Glenn Sylvester was key to this training.  The website under “members in action” can be found at www.faleo.org.
