According to the Project, 171 current health stations will be arranged into 60 main health stations and 106 station points. 5 health stations will stop operating, including: Bach Dang Ward Health Station (Ha Long City), Tien Yen Town Health Station (Tien Yen District), Binh Lieu Town Health Station (Binh Lieu District), Cai Rong Town Health Station (Van Don District), Co To Town Health Station (Co To District).
Each commune, ward, and special zone after the reorganization has at least 1 main health station. Arrange all human resources working at existing health stations to the new health stations after the arrangement. Each main station and station station station has 1 doctor. If the stations have not yet arranged doctors, they will send doctors to strengthen from medical centers.
For main health stations and stations in disadvantaged areas, far from the center, the full implementation of medical examination and treatment, preventive medicine, population... is guaranteed according to the National Criteria for Commune Health for the period up to 2030 (issued in Decision No.300/QD-BYT).
The health stations are identified as the headquarters to continue to be used stably to ensure initial medical examination, treatment and health care activities. Headquarters that are no longer in use due to changes in location, population size or organizational model will be handed over to localities for management and use.
The whole province currently has 13 district-level health centers, including 10 multi-functional health centers; 2 incomplete multi-functional health centers (Ha Long City Medical Center and Uong Bi City Medical Center have the function of health insurance examination and treatment but do not have inpatient beds) and 1 health center has the function of preventive medicine (Cam Pha City Medical Center).
According to the Project, district-level health centers will adjust their names (eliminate the words "district, town, city") because there are no longer district-level boundaries.
Medical centers continue to be public service units under the Department of Health; maintain the status quo of headquarters, facilities, assets and financial resources; organizational structure, leadership and number of employees at the medical center.
In the next phase, the health sector of Quang Ninh province will continue to review and arrange health centers in the direction of merging small-scale units with limited capacity or adjacent areas to form a regional hospital model.
The project also considers adjusting the function, transferring preventive functions from health centers to health stations and may stop the operation of some health centers with low functions or no inpatient beds...
