It was founded in 1958 by Dr. Martin Posadas and Dr. Rosalina Q. Posadas. VMUF offers courses in the medical and paramedical fields, in liberal and applied arts, sciences, and technical-vocational courses, senior high school, secondary, elementary and pre-school courses.[1] VMUF covers 19 hectares land area in MP Posadas Avenue, San Carlos City, Pangasinan, about 200 km, north of Manila, the capital of the Philippines. The Philippine national games (Palarong Pambansa) was held for the first time in there in 1995.[2] HistoryVMUF was initiated as POSADAS CLINIC in 1951 and was established at Bonifacio St., San Carlos, Pangasinan in an old house in Spanish-type, a residence of a prominent landowner-businessman, one-time Municipal Councilor Don Bernardino Posadas. And later, it was renamed Posadas Medico-Dental Clinic with a 10-bed capacity, five of which were devoted for charity patients. It had provisions for surgical and X-ray services, considered to be the first in a rural area and the first air-conditioned operating room in those days. The Posadas Medico-Dental Clinic became a 4-storey hospital and was renamed Virgen Milagrosa Hospital in 1957, in honor of the Posadas family patroness, Our Lady of Miraculous Medal.[3] In 1958, Virgen Milagrosa Hospital School of Midwifery was granted a permit to operate (the first such school north of Manila) and it attracted students from all over the country. The 21 students from the 1st graduated batch scored 100% passing rate in Board exams and 6 out of them came among the Top 10. Two years later in 1961, Virgen Milagrosa Hospital School of Nursing was opened and in 1964 the first graduates of the School of Nursing obtained a 100 percent passing rate in the board exams.
