To ensure medical services during Tet, the Health Department asked the establishments to gear up medicine, blood, transfusion solution, and other supplies necessary for emergency aid, check-up, and treatment. They were told to ensure that all patients in need of emergency aid receive timely examination and treatment.
The establishments were demanded to prepare patient reception plans, keep a close watch on the disease situation, and make timely response. They also need to boost monitoring to guarantee food safety and prevent food poisoning and food-borne diseases, the authority said.
It also asked the establishments to hold Tet celebrations for in-patients, especially poor and disadvantaged ones./.
