Special "healing" melody first sounded at Ho Chi Minh City Central Hospital

(Dan Tri) - On October 2, a special program was held at Saigon General Hospital (HCMC).

“I have been coming to Saigon General Hospital for many years. Today, when the hospital organized a music program, the melodies made me feel like I was back in my childhood.

I am truly touched and hope that this activity will continue to be maintained and spread, so that many other patients can also relax and be at peace like me. Listening to music makes me feel much healthier,” Ms. NTL (80 years old, living in Ben Thanh ward, Ho Chi Minh City) shared on the morning of October 2.

Similarly, Mr. TVV (45 years old, residing in Nguyen Cu Trinh ward, Ho Chi Minh City) expressed: “Familiar melodies help me relax, forget the feeling of fatigue due to illness. Instead, I feel warmer, more optimistic and love life more”.

Trevor, from Queensland (Australia), revealed: “In our country, some hospitals used to have pianos, but almost no one played them and patients paid little attention.

I was impressed to know that this music performance at your hospital was organized by volunteers, and even more special was that it was performed by the hospital staff themselves."

These are 3 of the many positive feelings of not only patients, relatives but also foreign tourists when coming to see a doctor and unexpectedly enjoying the program "White Blouse Melody" at the medical facility located right in the center of Ho Chi Minh City.

According to the representative of Saigon General Hospital, this is the first time “White Blouse Melody” has taken place at the unit. The program was organized by the staff of Saigon General Hospital in coordination with the Social Work Department, Gia Dinh People's Hospital in the lobby of the Examination Department.

“White Blouse Melody” features a volunteer band and many artists. A variety of instruments such as guitar, violin, flute (electronic flute), cello and saxophone were brought in, creating emotional melodies.

Dr. Phan Quoc Linh, Head of Traditional Medicine Department, Saigon General Hospital, said that “White Blouse Melody” is a bridge between medicine and art, between physical care and spiritual nourishment.
