By doing so, it ensures that everyone, regardless of their location or financial status, has the opportunity to receive the care they need.</p><p>We hope that with the collaboration of all organizations and individuals, more underprivileged communities will have the chance to access better healthcare services, improving their quality of life and community health. We would like to express our gratitude to all the organizations and individuals who have supported and accompanied us on this journey.</p><p>Duc Minh General Hospital will always be a trusted partner, dedicated to the health and happiness of all!</p><p><br></p>

After learning about their situation, <strong>the hospital leadership</strong> decided to provide <strong>100% free treatment</strong>, <strong>including meals and transportation to bring the child and family to the hospital for further care.</strong></p><p>In addition, <strong>other families</strong> from the village took advantage of the <strong>free medical services </strong>and brought their children<strong> for treatment covered under health insurance.</strong></p><figure id="figure-9tnntuftqm6yrp6a7" class=""><img id="9tnntuftqm6yrp6a7" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/1dhOWcvlhZH3jAVwuxPKDMLFIwHTS8OY2rFhCAeO5k7xdioqvaU5FJZxKKEbw81Y.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 3/2; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="3:2" data-caption="" data-positionx="null" data-positiony="null" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/1dhOWcvlhZH3jAVwuxPKDMLFIwHTS8OY2rFhCAeO5k7xdioqvaU5FJZxKKEbw81Y.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 3/2; object-position: center center;"></figure><figure id="figure-7vqruxer6om6yrqqif" class=""><img id="7vqruxer6om6yrqqif" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/3A0WskzvRyC05dj3YSH32PXKzPOdhDsMlshmrPEoKursLTovjoyFlQjVkO08pgME.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 3/2; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="3:2" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/3A0WskzvRyC05dj3YSH32PXKzPOdhDsMlshmrPEoKursLTovjoyFlQjVkO08pgME.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 3/2; object-position: center center;"></figure><h3>Impact on the Community</h3><p>The humanitarian program not only provided critical healthcare but also contributed to raising awareness about personal healthcare and the importance of prevention.

The hospital plans to continue this program in other areas, with upcoming visits to Tung Ba and Thanh Thuy communes by the end of 2024. The hospital is committed to expanding its efforts, ensuring more children and families have access to the healthcare they need, and fostering better health awareness throughout the region.</p><p>Through these continued efforts, the hospital hopes to inspire hope, well-being, and a healthier future for all those in need in Ha Giang.</p>
