12:00 AM, Wed August 22, 2018

VGP - The Ha Noi People’s Committee has approved the establishment of a centre for disease control based on the restructuring of the Centre for Preventive Medicine in Ha Noi.

Accordingly, the Centre for Preventive Medicine will be renamed as the Ha Noi Centre for Disease Control (Hanoi CDC) having a total 540 staff members.

The Ha Noi CDC, under the direct control of the municipal Department of Health, will provide counselling and organise activities on disease prevention and health risk reduction.

In addition, the centre is also tasked with managing community health.

Earlier, the Centre for Preventive Medicine was re-organised with the merger of nine units of the city’s preventive medicine system.

In addition, the reproductive health care centre at the Ha Noi Obstetrics and Gynaecology Hospital was moved to the Ha Noi CDC.
