On October 1, Chosun University Hospital announced that it had recently visited Jindo-gun to deliver compassionate medical care for residents of the island and rural fishing communities who normally have difficulty accessing the hospital.

A volunteer team composed of 23 doctors and staff members strengthened the local healthcare safety net by offering one-stop, personalized medical services ranging from medical consultations and ultrasound examinations to nutritional IV prescriptions.

The medical volunteer group consisted of a total of 23 members, including Hyunyoung Lee, Director of External Cooperation, and Kyunghun Sun, Team Leader of External Cooperation, as well as medical professionals and staff from the departments of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Emergency Medicine, Occupational and Environmental Medicine, Family Medicine, Radiology, and Otorhinolaryngology.

On that day, the volunteer group delivered a wide range of medical services for local residents—including medical consultations and medication, ultrasound, physical therapy, and injections of nutritional supplements—which were met with enthusiastic response from the community.

In particular, the participation of medical staff from several departments provided medical care and health consultations to residents who usually find it difficult to visit medical institutions, thereby improving access to healthcare services in the community.

Hyunyoung Lee, Director of External Cooperation, commented, "It is meaningful to care for the health of local residents and to support their access to medical services, even in a small way, through this volunteer activity. We will continue to fulfill our role as a community medical institution by seeking out areas in need of healthcare services and working alongside the local community."
