[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Dong-wook] The Korea Veterans Welfare and Medical Service is securing personnel, including hiring staff, ahead of the opening of Wonju Veterans Nursing Home scheduled for November.
According to the Veterans Welfare and Medical Service on the 15th, the Wonju Veterans Nursing Home will have a total of 131 full-time employees. This includes 5 office workers, 17 social welfare workers, 12 welfare function workers, 92 nursing care workers, and 5 administrative support staff.
In this regard, last month, the Medical Service recruited one person each through open competition for the positions of Grade 4 Welfare Manager, Nursing Manager, and Grade 5 Nurse, Social Worker, and Physical Therapist. The Wonju Veterans Nursing Home is classified as a general nursing home with no doctors, only nurses and physical therapists on site.
The Wonju Veterans Nursing Home is being constructed on a 9,784㎡ site in the Innovation City of Ban-gok-dong, Wonju City, with a total floor area of 10,515㎡, consisting of one basement floor and four above-ground floors. It will be equipped with 50 nursing rooms capable of accommodating 200 long-term care patients and 25 daytime care patients simultaneously, as well as program rooms, physical therapy rooms, psychological stabilization therapy rooms, and various rehabilitation therapy rooms.
The opening was originally scheduled for September but has been postponed by about two months to November. The facility will admit national veterans, their families, and local residents who have been assessed as eligible for admission due to senile diseases such as dementia and stroke, as well as national veterans judged to require nursing care due to injuries.
