The nighttime medical service will operate from 5:30 PM to 10:00 PM, and a dedicated pediatric ward with 10 beds, where patients and their guardians can stay together, will also be established.

The nighttime care can be accessed by visiting the Department of Pediatrics and Adolescents on the 2nd floor of Anseong Hospital, where three dedicated doctors will work in rotation to provide age-specific tailored medical services.

Earlier, the city prepared related ordinances in July to designate and operate pediatric and adolescent nighttime medical care and dedicated wards, and in August, signed a business agreement with the city council and Anseong Hospital for public health care projects.

The city expects that the implementation of nighttime medical care will not only resolve medical service gaps during vulnerable hours but also reduce the inconvenience of having to travel to nearby cities for emergency treatment.

Kim Bora, mayor of Anseong City, said, "We will create a medical environment without inconvenience for citizens and make Anseong a city that is great for raising children."
