Medicines and blood transfusions have also been fully prepared, ensuring service for patients before, during and after the Lunar New Year of Quy Ty. Doctors will be on duty 24/7 in the emergency room so that all cases transferred will be received and treated promptly. Specifically, the emergency department has organized 3 shifts, one shift consisting of 3 doctors and 6 nurses on duty 24/7, in addition to establishing a permanent shift of 1 doctor and 2 nurses, so that when there is a situation, it is ready to increase patient service. In emergency cases, when there are many patients, the hospital will increase the mobilization of more staff to the emergency room to ensure that 100% of patients are treated promptly. In addition, to encourage doctors, nurses, and hospital staff on duty during Tet, in addition to the Tet duty standards, each shift, each doctor, nurse, and staff will receive an additional 100,000 VND from the hospital. At this time, there are still more than 800 patients being treated at the hospital. In the coming time, mild cases that do not require the support of medical equipment will be facilitated by the hospital to return home for Tet. It is expected that this year at the Provincial General Hospital, there will be about 300 patients who will have to celebrate Tet at the hospital. To encourage the patients, the hospital leaders and departments have arranged time on the evening of the 29th and the morning of the first day of Tet to visit each bed, wish a happy new year and give gifts to patients being treated at the hospital.

The hospital management will regularly update the situation and information of each patient to have appropriate treatment and support so that each patient can have more joy in overcoming the pain of illness.
At the Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital, there is still an overload with 320 beds but there are still 400 patients being treated. Therefore, the hospital is trying to solve the problem of outpatient treatment for mild patients who have to go home for Tet. It is expected that this Tet, there will be about 100 - 150 children who have to stay for treatment at the hospital. To ensure that the children have a happy Tet, the hospital's leadership will organize a Tet celebration for the children and their families on the evening of the 29th lunar month. Each patient will receive a gift from the hospital's leadership to support and encourage the patients' spirit.

115 General Hospital is one of the hospitals that always gathers a large number of patients from inside and outside the province. The Tet holiday is identified by the hospital leaders as a peak period with a high number of people coming for medical examination and treatment, especially traffic accidents and injuries, so the hospital leaders have directed departments and rooms to strengthen their preparations for all cases. In order to serve patients in the best way, in addition to professional preparation and facilities, the hospital also directs the hospital's dining system to operate normally during the Tet holiday, serving meals to patients and doctors. Notably, this year during the Tet holiday, there are still about 90 patients undergoing hemodialysis, so the Hemodialysis Department only closes on the first day of the lunar calendar, the rest still operates normally to meet the needs of patients.
