According to the agreement, the city, Gyeongnam Social Service Institute, and medical institutions will actively promote visiting medical services where doctors, nurses, and social workers visit homes to prevent social hospitalization caused by gaps in health care.

Through this, medical accessibility will be improved, and health management services for the recovery of daily living functions will also be provided.

Mayor Hong Tae-yong said, “The social demand for care services is steadily increasing,” and added, “We will activate the operation of the Visiting Medical Support Center to build a community integrated care foundation so that no elderly person is isolated due to mobility difficulties.”

He continued, “I would like to express my gratitude to everyone who shared the same heart and gathered their will to promote the project.”
