Medical workers are often seen doing health check-ups at factories, enterprises and construction sites in the DPRK.
They are from medical institutions including such central establishments as the Breast Tumour Institute of the Pyongyang Maternity Hospital, Ryugyong General Ophthalmic Hospital, Kim Man Yu Hospital, Ryugyong Dental Hospital and Koryo Medicine General Hospital. They check on the health of employees and send those who need to receive treatment to hospitals after consultation.
Experienced doctors from the Kim Man Yu Hospital are providing medical service at Pyongyang and East Pyongyang thermal power stations.
Last March, a doctor from the Pyongyang Maternity Hospital identified an incurable disease from a woman worker at the Pyongyang Kim Jong Suk Silk Mill and sent her to the hospital for surgical operation.
“I might have been unable to think of my health today unless the doctors from the maternity hospital diagnosed my disease and enabled me to undergo treatment in time. I am very grateful to them for caring about our health and taking responsible care of us,” said the employee.
According to her, women employees of the mill call the medical team equipped with all kinds of medical equipment and appliances with an ambulance on standby “Pyongyang Maternity Hospital at the mill”.
All such medical services at factories and enterprises are also provided for free under the socialist free medical care system.
