Ltd, which is creating a sustainable maritime industry, and the resident fishing community have signed an agreement to implement the 'Health Station' project within 25 years. The resident fishing community said that it takes an average of 40 minutes to reach an emergency vehicle in the event of an emergency in the fishing village, and that the medical infrastructure is gradually becoming insufficient.

The project, which will be carried out in cooperation with the fishing community and the relevant departments of the Southern Navy, is expected to serve as an emergency medical base where emergency measures can be taken before reaching an emergency vehicle in the event of an emergency in the village, and healthcare services for disease prevention are also available, providing a solution to complement the substantial lack of medical infrastructure.


Developed as a convergent modular platform, 'Health Station' has the expertise to increase the survival rate of trauma patients by equipping infrastructure for emergency medical care (emergency kits, non-face-to-face medical treatment systems, early diagnostic medical devices, etc.
