Bach Mai Hospital (Hanoi) "rewarded" nurse Ha
On the afternoon of March 28, the leaders of Bach Mai Hospital met and rewarded nurse A9 - Dang Thi Ha for saving a man who had a cardiac arrest in a restaurant in Da Nang.
Director of Bach Mai Hospital - Mr. Dao Xuan Co - awarded a certificate of merit to nurse Dang Thi Ha for her excellent performance in emergency treatment of patients in the community. Mr. Co expressed his pride when hearing that his staff had worked very meaningfully, effectively and successfully in emergency treatment of foreign tourists outside the hospital.
"Out-of-hospital emergency care is very important. We can only receive emergency care at the hospital. Doing a good job of cardiac arrest emergency care, trauma emergency care, poisoning emergency care... will give patients a chance to live.
