[Goheung=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] On the 23rd, Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do announced that it has been selected in the 2020 Welfare Blind Spot Excellent Case Contest hosted by the Jeonnam Welfare Foundation and will receive the Governor’s Commendation.

The Goheung-gun Visiting Health and Welfare Service was launched this year as a new project to eliminate welfare blind spots.

First, integrated health-welfare services were operated through collaboration between the public health center’s visiting medical team and the eup/myeon visiting welfare team, and mobile welfare counseling offices (Bok·Dong·I: Bokjiya, Donggakmasilgaja, Mobile Counseling Office) were operated in each eup/myeon.

Additionally, the Cheongcheong Vitality Team was operated to visit each village to connect and support public services, and in-depth consulting for visiting health and welfare services hosted by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety was held.

This new visiting health and welfare service project was selected as an excellent case of operating visiting health and welfare services along with Goheung-gun’s existing public-private cooperation activities to discover welfare blind spots, visiting welfare counseling, and customized service linkage.

In 2021, it will be published as an excellent casebook for eliminating welfare blind spots and distributed and shared with public and private social welfare institutions and organizations.

A county official said, “Taking this award as an opportunity, we will make every effort to improve the welfare delivery system and strengthen the human safety net so that no local residents suffer or are marginalized in welfare blind spots.”
