Our Children's Medical Foundation Woori Children's Hospital (Chairman Jung Sung-kwan, Hospital Director Baek Jung-hyun), a specialized hospital for children and adolescents designated by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, announced on the 4th that it signed an agreement with Hanyang University Hospital (Hospital Director Lee Hyung-joong) to strengthen the cooperation system for pediatric patients in the first meeting room on the 8th floor of Hanyang University Hospital.

The agreement was designed to establish a rapid and systematic transfer and transfer system according to the severity and emergency of pediatric patients, to strengthen a cooperative medical system in which specialized hospitals are responsible for children with mild and moderate symptoms, and to link severe patients with advanced general hospitals.

The agreement ceremony was attended by Jung Sung-kwan, chairman of the Woori Children's Medical Foundation, Baek Jung-hyun, head of the Woori Children's Hospital, Gil Hyun-soo, administrative director of the Future Strategy Office Joo Young-heon, and Lee Hyung-joong, vice president of the hospital, Lee Hang-rak, head of the planning and coordination office, Noh Sung-won, head of the external cooperation office, sci-fi support director, Park Jung-hwan, head of the CS Innovation Center, Yang Seung-soo, head of the pediatric department, and Na Jae-yoon, head of the pediatric department, attended the ceremony to discuss the direction of cooperation.




Through the agreement, the two organizations agreed to cooperate with each other in ▲ establishing a rapid power and return system according to the severity and emergency of pediatric patients ▲ cooperation in clinical treatment, education and research ▲ joint activities to operate and improve the quality of regional cooperation models ▲ sharing medical information for the promotion of pediatric safety and health. In particular, we agreed to precisely establish a structure in which patients with severe or severe progression found by Woori Children's Hospital in charge of 24-hour pediatric treatment are linked to Hanyang University Hospital, and patients with stable conditions are returned to local specialized hospitals after acute treatment.

Since its opening in 2013, Woori Children's Hospital has been leading the establishment of a specialized treatment system for children and adolescents, and has been evaluated as a hospital that has suggested a new direction for pediatric treatment infrastructure among pediatric and adolescent specialists in Korea. In fact, Professor Na Jae-yoon of Hanyang University Hospital praised the establishment of a children's hospital treatment system and a model for pediatric and adolescent specialists from the beginning. "It is significant in that we have been creating a framework for pediatric specialized treatment before the expansion of children's hospitals nationwide."

Based on this, Woori Children's Hospital will operate a 24-hour and 365-day pediatric care system from April this year, providing stable treatment for children from mild to moderate, and playing a key role in the local pediatric medical safety net through early screening and rapid connection to higher general hospitals for severely ill patients. Hanyang University Hospital emphasized the meaning of this agreement, saying, `Our children's hospital is a partner who can play an important role in cooperation with advanced general hospitals based on field-oriented treatment experience and systematic operation.'




"Based on our children's hospital's experience accumulated at the 24-hour treatment site, we have judged that the structure of more quickly and accurately selecting severe patients corresponding to some of the total patients and linking them with advanced general hospitals is more important than anything else," said Chairman Chung Sung-kwan. "Cooperation with Hanyang University Hospital will serve as a decisive opportunity to further tighten the medical safety net for severely ill and emergency patients for children."

Director of Hanyang University Hospital Lee Hyung-joong "This hospital has participated in the Seoul Metropolitan Government 'Our Children's Safety Hospital' project and has continued to strengthen the capacity of pediatric emergency and serious patients."Through this agreement, we will operate the pediatric emergency treatment system more stably by further systematizing the connection with pediatric hospitals in the region."," he said.

With this agreement, the Children's Medical Foundation plans to expand a cooperative medical system based on practical role sharing and mutual trust with advanced hospitals, and accelerate the establishment of a regional complete pediatric medical model centered on 24-hour treatment. In particular, it plans to continue to contribute to the creation of a pediatric medical environment where guardians and patients can feel safe through a cooperative structure that saves their functions and strengths.
