On the 8th, the main hospitals were filled with patients on the 8th, when the main doctors who had been in a group indefinitely separated asking for a new discussion on the origin of medical policy, they stopped the strike and returned to work. However, with some of the largest still holding strikes, it is unclear when the medical gap will be fully resolved.
On this day, at the Seoul National University Hospital in Jongno-gu, Seoul, vehicles and taxis carrying patients and guardians continued to enter around 9 a.m. and filled the front of the main building. The staff were busy organizing the traffic on the road in front of the main building, and inside the building, the guiding staff were busy guiding the visitors who filled the lobby, saying, “Please show me your medical card.”
Mr. A (74), who came in for a cardiovascular exam that day, said: “The waiting time was not very long and it did not take long to get the exam. Mr. B, who visited early for treatment outpatient, he said: “It’s a way to go back after receiving treatment without waiting too long.”
Emergency treatment also progressed smoothly, as ambulances enter the emergency center every 20 to 30 minutes to drop off patients. That day, around 1 p.m., when it was time for lunch, it was noticed that the young doctors, who appeared to be specialized doctors, were walking to take a break.
The emergency treatment and surgical functions of other large hospitals to which leading doctors have returned are also gradually recovering. On this afternoon, the patients who visited the Seoul Asan Hospital in Songpa-gu, Seoul received a sequence table and waited for the treatment order, and the general treatment went smoothly.
However, even though the Emergency Response Committee of the Korean Medical Association (Daejeon Association) announced the plan to return to the hospital the day before, the situation to return to work varies from hospital to hospital, and it will take time to a full recovery. On this day, an official from Daejeon Hyup, who formed a new non-confrontational committee, explained that it is the stage of collecting opinions from leading doctors.
It was confirmed that all the specialties at Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul Samsung Hospital, Seoul Asan Hospital and Seoul St. Mary Hospital returned to work that day, and Daejeon Ansan Hospital and others are scheduled. to return on the 9th. However, doctors at Chung-Ang University Hospital and Hallym University Hospital decided to continue the strike for the time being.
