Cheongsong-gun Operates 'Visiting Korean Medicine Program' for Medically Vulnerable Groups
Cheongsong-gun Health and Medical Center in Gyeongbuk is operating a visiting Korean medicine program for medically vulnerable elderly from January 23 to March 13.
The Korean medicine program is being conducted every Tuesday and Wednesday since January 23 at three senior centers in Wolmae-ri, Hyeondong-myeon; Ongjeom-ri, Pacheon-myeon; and Jwara-ri, Juwangsan-myeon. A Korean medicine doctor visits the senior centers to provide 1:1 customized health consultations and acupuncture treatments to alleviate musculoskeletal symptoms and offer personalized health management services.
As physical activity decreases due to the winter cold wave, the need for elderly health management has emerged. The Korean medicine home-visit project targeting transportation-vulnerable areas is expected to receive strong support from local seniors.
