between Vietnam’s Saigon Medical Investment JSC and Cambodia’s Sokimex Co,
stands ready to admit COVID-19 patients, its General Director has
said.
The Cambodian Government has allowed private hospitals and medical clinics to
admit COVID-19 patients provided they satisfy 11 criteria set by the Cambodian
health ministry, the doctor said, adding that the hospital is now reviewing the
criteria.
Apart from 30 rooms exclusively for patients, the hospital has
prepared another 20 stand-by rooms and will expand capacity to treat 100
COVID-19 patients if necessary, he said.
The hospital has also coordinated with Cambodian authorities in COVID-19
vaccinations and helped the country with two ambulances, two drivers, and two
nurses during the transportation of COVID-19 patients or suspected cases to
treatment and quarantine facilities.
On April 24, the hospital and the ese Embassy in Cambodia visited and
presented gifts to Vietnamese families in the host country that are in
difficult circumstances or living in locked-down areas.
Nguyen Tri Thuc, Director of Cho Ray Hospital in HCM City, said that over the
past seven years the Cho Ray Phnom Penh Hospital has transferred technology to
Cambodia and helped the country in the training of doctors./.
