Recently, Military Hospital 109 (Military Region 2) organized a program to examine, provide health consultation, provide free medicine and give gifts to policy beneficiaries, poor households and people in difficult circumstances in Hoa Son town (Lap Thach).

The program is part of a series of activities to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification Day (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2025) and to carry out social security work.

During the examination, the doctors enthusiastically advised on the patient's condition and promoted knowledge of proactive health care and protection to help people effectively prevent common diseases. The hospital also presented 10 gifts and provided free medicine to nearly 300 policy beneficiaries, poor households, and families in difficult circumstances.

As a 4/4 disabled veteran, Mr. Vu Duc Do, Quang Khuon residential group, Hoa Son town shared: “Old age, weak health, and suffering from high blood pressure, I was very touched when I was examined and given medicine according to my health insurance card. This time, the doctors from Military Hospital 109 came to my place to examine me, helping me avoid having to travel far and hard.”

Colonel Nguyen Huy Hoang, Meritorious Physician, Specialist 2, Director of Military Hospital 109 said: “Over the years, the hospital has always done a good job of taking care of the health of people with meritorious services. On average, each year, the hospital examines, consults, and gives hundreds of free gifts to families with meritorious services to the revolution.

Focus on disadvantaged localities with many policy beneficiaries and often organize in conjunction with the celebration of major and important holidays of the country and the military.

With a practical motto, focusing on the grassroots, the hospital sends highly experienced and specialized staff, doctors and nurses directly to localities to examine and provide health consultation to people in general and those with meritorious services in particular, to continue to show gratitude to those who have devoted their youth, health and life to their homeland and country and to demonstrate a sense of responsibility to the community.

In addition to caring for people with meritorious services, Vinh Phuc also pays special attention to nursing and health rehabilitation for policy beneficiaries and people with meritorious services to the revolution.

Over the years, Tam Dao Nursing Center for the Meritorious has become a “second home” for tens of thousands of people with meritorious services to the revolution. In 2024, the center welcomed and cared for more than 1,400 people with meritorious services in the province and more than 300 people with meritorious services from Ha Nam province.

In addition to health care programs and the nursing process at the center, meritorious people can also participate in cultural exchange activities, read books and newspapers, watch historical documentaries, play sports, and visit historical sites such as K9 - Da Chong...

These activities and trips are not only for relaxation and recuperation, but also an opportunity for those with merit to review the heroic tradition, so that patriotism and national spirit continue to be aroused and spread.

Director of Tam Dao Nursing Center for Meritorious People Nguyen Hong Minh shared: “During the resistance wars, soldiers fought steadfastly to gain independence and freedom for the nation, to protect the country. Therefore, more than ever, they need to be cared for, both physically and mentally.

The center's staff, doctors and nurses always take the best care of policy beneficiaries and meritorious people to show gratitude to those who have dedicated and are willing to sacrifice their youth and lives for their homeland and country.

Taking care of the health of people with meritorious services is not only the responsibility of the Party, the State and authorities at all levels, but also a profound expression of gratitude and the national morality of remembering the source of water that has been deeply ingrained in the subconscious of every Vietnamese person.

This is also a journey to preserve memories, to preserve the good values of history, so that today's and future generations understand that: Independence - Freedom - Happiness that we are enjoying is the exchange of blood and bones, of the whole lives of many generations of predecessors.

With specific, practical and humane actions, Vinh Phuc is writing a touching story of gratitude every day, so that the flame of patriotism will always burn brightly in the heart of the homeland.
