(Baonghean.vn) - In the highland border areas, where ethnic minorities are facing many disadvantages, medical care is also lacking. However, also in the deep forests and mountains throughout the border areas of Nghe An, medical stations and military and civilian infirmaries of the armed forces have somewhat alleviated the worries about illness for the people.
Recently, on a trip back to Tri Le, a border commune of Que Phong district, we had the opportunity to witness the affection of doctors and nurses wearing green uniforms of Tri Le Border Post with the Mong and Thai people here. The activities of the combined military and civilian medical clinic in Tri Le in terms of medical examination and treatment have been increasingly improved in all aspects, and are highly trusted by the people. Not only the people in the area, neighboring districts and communes, but also the people of Laos bordering the area have come to seek medical examination and treatment. In 5 years (from 2009 to present), 2,969 people have been examined and treated. Of which, 77 people from Laos, Nhon Mai commune (Tuong Duong) has 245 people. Tri Le commune alone has 2,189 people, Nam Nhoong commune has 271 people and 78 officers and soldiers in the area.
Behind the above figures are the dedication and efforts of the soldiers - doctors who have been close to the people in their moments of illness and disease, alleviating many worries. As Dr. Le Anh Duc (from Thanh Long commune - Thanh Chuong), in 2012 was awarded the Second Class Medal of Glorious Soldier by the President, in charge of the Tri Le military-civilian clinic, shared: "Although we all have very far away hometowns to come to the people, but despite many difficulties in carrying out our duties, we all try our best, with all the heart of a doctor and the responsibility of a soldier towards our compatriots."
Not only at Tri Le, but also in many other combined military-civilian clinics and infirmaries, the responsibility of the doctor with military rank is also full of love. The military-civilian infirmary of Economic Group - Military Region 4 (Military Region 4) stationed in Na Ngoi commune (Ky Son) is also a beautiful proof.

Although there are still many shortages, a number of modern facilities are still fully equipped to serve the people. |

Mr. and Mrs. Mua Ba Hoa (Minh Chau village) brought their child for treatment because they no longer believe in the custom of worshipping the dead. |

The joy of children recovering from illness is also the joy of doctors and physicians. |
