Green - clean - beautiful medical environment to keep patients safe

SKĐS - Thanh Ba Regional Medical Center, Phu Tho is a grade I medical facility with a friendly, clean, harmonious space and a well-operated medical environment management system.

The leaders of Thanh Ba Regional Medical Center, Phu Tho, determined that having a safe and clean medical examination and treatment environment requires the persistent efforts of the medical staff working at the hospital. From the entrance, the Center's campus creates a pleasant feeling for patients: green trees are regularly trimmed, internal roads are swept clean, flower beds and flower pots are arranged harmoniously according to each functional area.

The campus of Thanh Ba Regional Medical Center, Phu Tho is always green.

In the context that many medical facilities are facing the challenge of overload and waste pressure, maintaining such a clean atmosphere is not simply a matter of beautifying the landscape, but also an environmental health care strategy, contributing to reducing stress and creating trust for patients right from the first steps.

Thanh Ba Regional Medical Center currently has 263 staff, of which the professional force accounts for a large proportion: 70 doctors, 21 CK1 doctors, 12 CK2 doctors, 2 masters, 21 pharmacists and more than 130 nurses, midwives and technicians. This is the main human resource implementing all professional activities, and at the same time, the people who directly maintain the green - clean - beautiful criteria throughout the process of caring for and treating patients. One of the points that most clearly demonstrates the unit's sense of responsibility to the community is the work of infection control and medical waste management.

With 500 assigned hospital beds, the amount of waste generated is quite large. However, Thanh Ba Medical Center always maintains the process of classifying, collecting, transporting and treating waste in accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Health .

Waste classification is done right in the patient room.

In the departments, waste is classified right at the source. Infectious waste and household waste are classified and treated according to the regulations of the Ministry of Health. The system of containers with correct color codes, with secure lids, is placed in convenient locations so that staff and patients can easily follow the instructions.

Collection work is carried out daily and cross-checked, minimizing the risk of accumulation, spreading pathogens or causing unpleasant odors on campus. In addition, the Center also proactively encourages the use of environmentally friendly materials, gradually reducing disposable plastic products. In many departments, water bottles with faucets replace plastic bottles; bio-material sorting bags are given priority; the movement of "saying no to disposable plastic" is actively responded to by medical staff. Along with that, the environmental sanitation system is continuously ensured, from surface disinfection to cleaning of treatment areas, toilets, corridors, and stair buttons.

With a clean medical environment, the Center reduces the risk of cross-infection, one of the biggest challenges for large-scale medical facilities. Along with waste control, Thanh Ba Regional Medical Center also focuses on creating a friendly landscape.

Director of Thanh Ba Regional Medical Center, Phu Tho - BSCKII Vuong Truong Thai directed to increase planting and care of green trees, arrange more flower pots, miniature landscapes in the corridor and examination area so that patients can see green in any location. "A small green area also helps patients reduce anxiety", that is not only a point of view but has become a reality when many people share that their relatives are less stressed when going to the hospital thanks to the open space, with lots of green trees.

From a management perspective, the Center conducts a medical staff satisfaction survey twice a year, collecting opinions on the working environment, facilities, remuneration and quality of hospital operations. These responses are taken seriously, creating timely adjustments to improve the quality of patient care and help the medical staff feel secure in their dedication. Another important factor contributing to the hospital's friendly image is civility in behavior.

The departments are neatly and scientifically arranged; the signs are clearly arranged to help patients find their way easily without wasting much time. The degraded items are regularly renovated; the medical examination and treatment space is maintained bright - green - clean - airy. Medical staff follow communication standards, give enthusiastic instructions and always maintain a gentle attitude towards patients and their families.

The cultural propaganda of "No smoking - No littering" is carried out synchronously, spreading to each department. Every day, the hospital loudspeaker repeats the message of environmental hygiene, helping staff, patients and their families raise awareness of working together to keep the hospital clean.

In parallel, the Center maintains 24/7 emergency quality with two mobile emergency teams and two disaster and catastrophe prevention emergency teams. Emergency capacity, equipment system and well-trained medical team help patients feel secure even in the most urgent situations.

A green - clean - beautiful environment will be meaningless if professional activities are not guaranteed, but at Thanh Ba Regional Medical Center, these two factors are blending to create comprehensive treatment effectiveness. From green landscape, clean space, strict waste control process to service quality and behavioral culture, all have contributed to creating the image of a friendly, civilized and responsible Thanh Ba Regional Medical Center to the community.

The efforts of Thanh Ba Regional Medical Center, Phu Tho have affirmed that a good medical environment is not only a condition for more effective patient care, but also a way to strengthen trust in the grassroots medical system. In a place where the green of trees and leaves blends with the white of blouses, the journey to protect public health is spread by dedication, discipline in environmental management and the love of the profession of each medical staff.
