Visit the place that heals the wounds of war

(Baonghean.vn) - The sound of charging and marching songs sometimes still echo, breaking the quiet atmosphere of Nghi Phong Psychiatric Nursing Center for War Invalids (Nghi Loc, Nghe An), where the war wounds of soldiers are 'soothed'.

Established on September 29, 1981, for the first 14 years, the Center for Nursing for Mentally Disabled War Veterans was located in the mountainous district of Tan Ky before moving to Nghi Phong, Nghi Loc in 1995. Photo: Chu Thanh

Currently, the Center is caring for 98 wounded soldiers, children of martyrs and other mentally ill people due to the consequences of war. Photo: Chu Thanh

According to the staff and nurses here, when they are conscious, the wounded soldiers are gentle, but when the disease comes, they are immersed in painful memories of war and cannot control themselves. Some call for volunteers, some sing the national anthem, some scream... Photo: Chu Thanh

At such times, the staff, doctors and nurses who witnessed it could not hold back their tears. That is why everyone in the center tries to take good care of the wounded soldiers, who have sacrificed their lives for the independence and freedom of the nation. Photo: Chu Thanh

Many paralyzed war invalids, like Mr. Nguyen Van Phu, are always cared for at their bedsides by doctors and nurses at the center. Photo: Chu Thanh

When not in treatment, many wounded soldiers at the center listen to the radio, play chess, and even take care of cats. Photo: Chu Thanh

For many war invalids, they have lived at the Mental Health Nursing Center since its inception and consider it their home. Photo: Chu Thanh
