The “Heartful Journey” program is an initiative by the Youth Union and Social Work Department at Ninh Binh General Hospital. Its primary goal is to provide a safe and meaningful journey, allowing patients to spend Tet with their families in a warm atmosphere.
Specifically, six trips were organized to transport patients and their families to various remote locations within Ninh Binh province, including:
- 2 trips to Yen Khanh and Kim Son districts.
- 2 trips to Gia Vien and Nho Quan districts.
- 1 trip to Yen Mo district.
- 1 trip to Tam Diep city.
Close to 300 patients and their families were supported to return home during Tet (Photo provided by the hospital).
All trips departed on the evening of January 24, with a total of 286 people, including both patients and their families, being transported directly to their homes for reunion. Throughout the journey, medical staff and youth volunteers provided continuous support and care. Additionally, patients were given detailed instructions on how to take care of their health during their time at home.
