(HBO) – Hoa Binh province hasn’t recorded any cases of COVID-19 so far. Meanwhile, people quarantined at concentrated facilities or at home have felt at ease and seriously complied with regulations on disease prevention and control. This result is partly attributable to communal-level health care network across the province.
Staff
members of the health station of Huu Nghi ward in Hoa Binh city are on duty
around the clock to receive and handle information about the local COVID-19
situation.
At present, Mai Chau district has 85 people
being quarantined at concentrated facilities and 32 others at home. Doctor Pham
Van Cuong, Director of the district’s medical centre, said in response to the
COVID-19 outbreak, the centre has provided training for staff of communal-level
health stations in diagnosis, treatment, monitoring and quarantine. It has also
conducted fumigation at schools, clinics and crowded places to ensure absolute
safety for local residents and tourists.
Health stations of communes and townships have
proved their important role in the disease prevention and control, he noted,
adding that they have coordinated with local schools, businesses and
authorities to update workers, residents and students on the pandemic situation
and prevention measures.
Recently, people coming to health stations in
Tan Lac district for check-ups and treatment have received guidance on health
protection and COVID-19 prevention measures.
Aside from proposing anti-coronavirus measures
to the district’s steering board for COVID-19 prevention and control, the Tan
Lac medical centre has taken initiative to build concrete scenarios to stay
ready to cope with any circumstance. Besides, it has sent staff to monitor
disease prevention and control activities in communal-level localities while
regularly requesting local health stations to provide people with relevant
advice.
In the spirit of "fighting the pandemic is like
fighting an enemy” and steering clear of over-confidence, communal-level health
stations across Hoa Binh province have kept updated with information,
frequently reviewed their performance so as to give timely guidance in
accordance with new developments of the epidemic situation. They have also got infrastructure
readied for receiving and treating patients, and effectively prevented
cross-infection at medical facilities./.
