Hampyeong Health Center Provides 'Health Care Services' for Families with Disabilities

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] The Jeonnam Hampyeong-gun Public Health Center (Director Jeong Myeonghui) announced on the 12th that it provided a 'Health Care Service' to households with disabled residents staying at home on the 10th.

The health center recognized that disabled individuals with limited mobility are highly likely to be isolated inside their homes due to the prolonged COVID-19 situation, and from the 1st to the 10th, provided health care services including disinfection to 253 local disabled households over ten days.

During this period, disinfection staff visited the local disabled households in person to check for respiratory symptoms such as coughing and fever, and thoroughly disinfected both the interior and exterior of the homes.

Additionally, health center officials provided guidance on infectious disease prevention behaviors such as hand washing and wearing masks through one-on-one phone consultations, and delivered a set of four health care kits including masks via non-face-to-face methods.

Jeong Myeonghui, director of the Hampyeong-gun Public Health Center, stated, “We will continue to provide management services such as disinfection to ensure that health risks and care gaps for disabled people living at home do not occur due to COVID-19.”
