Chonnam National University Hospital Holds 'Visiting Partner Hospital Meeting'

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Gwan-woo] Jeonnam National University Hospital announced on the 26th that it held a ‘Visiting Partner Hospital Meeting’ to establish a smooth cooperative system with local medical institutions to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Hosted by the Jeonnam National University Hospital Medical Cooperation Center, this visiting meeting was held for the first time to promote cooperation with hospitals while maintaining social distancing, as the previously held regional partner hospital meetings were suspended due to COVID-19.

In particular, as close cooperation such as medical referrals, transfers, and medical information exchange with partner hospitals is more crucial during the COVID-19 situation, the hospital visited partner hospitals directly to seek ways to share various information.

To this end, Jeonnam National University Hospital formed a visiting team consisting of Seo Hyung-yeon, head of the Medical Cooperation Center, Kim Rang-soon, team leader of the Medical Cooperation Center, and Kwak Se-young, nurse in charge of transfers, and visited Gwangju Christian Hospital and Happy View Hospital on the 22nd.

During the meeting, the visiting team held a ceremony to deliver the standard agreement for medical information exchange with Gwangju Christian Hospital and discussed medical information exchange plans with Happy View Hospital.

Jeonnam National University Hospital has been establishing cooperative relationships with local medical institutions to promote regional medical development and improve the health of local residents.

So far, it has formed cooperative relationships with a total of 761 hospitals and clinics (392 primary clinics, 639 secondary hospitals), of which 404 are in the Gwangju area and 284 in the Jeonnam area.

In other regions, it has also established partner hospitals in Jeonbuk (28), Seoul and Gyeonggi (22), Daejeon, Chungnam and Chungbuk, Jeju, and Gyeongnam.

Center head Seo Hyung-yeon said, “Through this meeting, we will strengthen the close relationship with partner hospitals that was temporarily suspended,” and added, “We will continue to strive to provide faster and higher-quality medical services as Jeonnam National University Hospital, a public medical base hospital.”
