The Respiratory Patient Care Center is an integrated concept combining a respiratory-specialized clinic that conducts testing, diagnosis, and non-face-to-face treatment for patients with respiratory symptoms, designated respiratory treatment medical institutions, and an outpatient treatment center that provides face-to-face care for both COVID-positive and non-COVID patients.

In particular, the movement paths of COVID-19 confirmed patients will be separated, and separate treatment spaces will be utilized to block transmission between patients.

Hospital Director Kim Jeong-hwan stated, “As a result of preparing for the resurgence of the COVID-19 virus, we were able to quickly open the Respiratory Patient Care Center,” and added, “We will do our best to minimize community transmission of the virus and inconvenience to local residents.”
