Local police and Hue Central Hospital security patrol to ensure security and order.

Recently, the security force of Hue Central Hospital caught To The Hien (born in 1982), residing in Thuy Chau ward, (Huong Thuy town) pretending to be a patient's family member to infiltrate the hospital's Dental Center to steal a phone.

One day at the end of September 2023, security guards of Hue Central Hospital were patrolling around the hospital area and discovered and caught a subject red-handed stealing motorbike batteries.

In addition to promptly resolving security and order issues, Hue City Police and Hue Central Hospital also actively coordinate to ensure traffic safety and urban order at the hospital's entrances and exits.

The security forces of Hue Central Hospital and Vinh Ninh Ward Police organized many inspections and handled violations of urban order on the roads around the hospital such as Ngo Quyen, Hai Ba Trung... Many street vendors on the roads around the hospital, especially in front of gates 2 and 3 of Hai Ba Trung Street, affecting the traffic of patients entering the emergency room were reminded and handled by the security forces and police; creating a smooth flow for patients and their relatives when coming to the hospital; reducing traffic congestion.

“The increase in police officers and soldiers participating in patrols and controls at the hospital has somewhat limited the disturbances and thefts in the hospital grounds. Through patrols, patients, their relatives and doctors have also been promptly reminded to raise their vigilance and preserve their belongings and assets during their stay at the hospital,” said Lieutenant Colonel Le Kim Dung, Chief of Vinh Ninh Ward Police.

Hue Central Hospital has a large number of patients and their relatives coming from all over the country for medical examination and treatment. Security and order issues must always be a top priority for the hospital security force and local police. Theft of property, disturbing public order, touts, impersonating patients’ relatives to infiltrate hospital rooms to steal property… are inevitable.

Many solutions and plans have been implemented by the hospital security force and Hue City Police, but strengthening coordination is still the most important and optimal solution at present.

Security and order at the hospital are basically stable. The situation of disturbing public order has been more limited than before; cases of theft and loss of property have been detected and handled promptly; awareness of crime prevention, working together to ensure security and order, environmental sanitation, and landscape in the hospital campus have been significantly improved.

Mr. Nguyen Van Chien, Deputy Head of Security Department of Hue Central Hospital, said that Hue City Police and Hue Central Hospital need to continue to increase coordination in patrolling, maintaining security and order at the hospital; ensuring traffic safety and urban order; creating the most favorable conditions for people when coming to the hospital.

Since the beginning of 2023, the security force of Hue Central Hospital has coordinated with Vinh Ninh Ward Police to arrest and handle 5 subjects for property theft. 7 cases of people picking up lost items in the hospital and returning them to the owners with a value of more than 40 million VND.
