This emergency medical care system has been established to prevent medical service gaps and minimize inconvenience to residents during the holiday period. A total of 306 institutions, including 231 local clinics and hospitals and 75 pharmacies, will be designated and operated on a daily basis.

In particular, emergency medical institutions such as Seoul Medical Center, Noksaek Hospital, and Dongbu Jeil Hospital will provide 24-hour emergency care, while Jangse Women’s Hospital and Medirenne Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic will offer continuous delivery services.

The status of medical institutions and pharmacies open during the Chuseok holiday can be easily checked by district and neighborhood on the Central Emergency Medical Center website, as well as on the smartphone app ‘Emergency Medical Information Service’ and the Jungnang-gu Office website.

Additionally, real-time updated information can be obtained through the Ambulance Situation Management Center and Dasan Call Center.

Furthermore, the Jungnang-gu Public Health Center will operate an ‘Emergency Medical Care Situation Room’ to monitor and inspect the operation status of medical institutions and pharmacies during the holiday. An ‘Emergency Medical Care Team’ will also be deployed to provide treatment mainly for chronic patients with hypertension, diabetes, and abnormal substrates, as well as for mild patients. During nighttime, guidance on the emergency medical care system will be available through the district office duty room.

Ryu Kyung-gi, Mayor of Jungnang-gu, stated, “We have thoroughly prepared an emergency medical care system so that all residents can spend a healthy and safe time during the Chuseok holiday. We will do our best to ensure that medical services can be received promptly when needed.”
