Haman County Health Center Provides 'Customized Home Health Care Services' Focused on Medically Underserved Areas

An elderly resident of Haman-gun is receiving customized home-visit health care services.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] The Haman Public Health Center in Gyeongnam announced on the 20th that it is providing customized home-visit health management services focusing on medically underserved areas in Daesan-myeon.

Although resident-led health promotion activities are limited due to COVID-19, the county health center has significantly strengthened its outreach health services, receiving great responses from residents.

The customized home-visit health management service mainly involves health consultations and management through home visits by dedicated personnel such as visiting doctors, public health officers, and visiting nurses.

As a result, residents in health-vulnerable groups can receive free health services regularly without having to visit the health center in person.

In addition, the health center actively connects residents who need assistance with various services, including welfare and administration, as well as its own programs.

An elderly person who received the service said, "I felt isolated and depressed due to COVID-19, but I am grateful that someone came directly to visit and provide health consultations, which eased my loneliness and helped me take care of my health."

A health center official stated, "Although everyone is facing difficulties due to COVID-19, we will pay even more attention to ensure that our residents, especially those in health-vulnerable groups, are not left out during these times."
