Goyang City Launches 'COVID-19 Home Treatment Task Force' [Goyang City]

[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] Goyang City in Gyeonggi Province announced on the 10th that it will officially launch the "COVID-19 Home Treatment Promotion Team" to efficiently manage COVID-19 patients undergoing home treatment.

According to the city, the "Home Treatment Promotion Team" is composed of 54 members organized into 3 divisions and 8 teams, led by the second vice mayor, establishing an integrated management system without distinction by district to strengthen the management system for the target patients.

The Promotion Team has set up a situation room at the Goyang Eoullimnuri Gymnasium to oversee the overall health management and isolation management of all home treatment patients in the city.

Once a patient is assigned for home treatment based on epidemiological investigation results, the Promotion Team provides initial guidance and designates a managing medical institution responsible for health monitoring during the home treatment period. Currently, the managing medical institutions in Goyang City are Myongji Hospital, Jain Medi Hospital, and Gangbuk Seongsim Nursing Hospital.

After designating the medical institution, a dedicated public official will be assigned to confirm the isolation status and respond to civil complaints, ensuring that home treatment patients receive systematic management.

Mayor Lee Jae-jun of Goyang City stated, "With the operation of the Home Treatment Promotion Team, we will do our best to facilitate the early establishment of home treatment and the stable management of COVID-19."
