In the program, people received general health examinations including: blood pressure measurement, cardiovascular, ultrasound, respiratory, digestive, kidney - urinary, bone and joint diseases, spine, ear - nose - throat.

In addition, women and children are cared for and counseled on reproductive health and nutrition. In particular, through examination, doctors promptly discovered 16 cases of severe tuberculosis and lung diseases and were referred for treatment. After examination, people were given free medicine, instructions on how to use it and advice on health care.

This is the second time this year that the program has been held for free in Bach Dich commune. On September 8 alone, the delegation organized free medical examinations and medicine distribution for 357 people; it is expected that by the end of the program, about 600 people in the border area will have been examined and given free medicine.

At the same time, it demonstrates the concern of Party committees, authorities at all levels and accompanying units in taking care of community health. Thereby, contributing to raising awareness of health care, early detection and treatment of some diseases, reducing the burden of medical costs for people.
