[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Sancheong-gun, Gyeongnam announced on the 15th that it has carried out a health management medical device distribution project to enhance the response capability to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) for low-income households.


The county used medical aid project funds to distribute automatic electronic blood pressure monitors and non-contact thermometers to 80 low-income medical aid recipient households.


They also provided guidance on the proper use of medical devices and effective prevention methods for COVID-19.


This project was conducted to support infectious disease-vulnerable households exposed to group infections, such as those with chronic diseases or students among the medical aid case management subjects.



A county official said, “As the social distancing level has recently been raised, increasing the time spent at home, it was necessary to enhance the COVID-19 response level of vulnerable households, which led to the implementation of this project. We plan to continue providing various medical supports for low-income groups in the future.”
