Hallym University Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital (Director Sung Ho Lee) changed the access control system that has been in place since February 19 to prevent the infection of COVID-19. Now, it is possible to check the availability of a visit through mobile in advance.

In the past, a visitor was asked to fill out a questionnaire asking for the name, visiting day, the number of visitors, whether visited overseas within the last 14 days or not and the visited country. However, visitors were inconvenient as the waiting time was long at the entrance due to the time for writing the questionnaire and the constraints of space. In addition, many patients who visited the hospital without knowing the changed standards of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention had to go back.

Therefore, Hallym University Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital is sending the patient a questionnaire through mobile to make a reservation. At 8 a.m., a message with a questionnaire is sent through KakaoTalk, and visitors can write and send whether they have been overseas for the last two weeks, including their family, the country they visited, the number of visitors, etc.

If there is no history of visiting overseas within the last 14 days, a pass will be successfully issued. When you show a mobile pass at the entrance of the hospital, you can use the hospital quickly after checking fever and respiratory symptoms. If you visited overseas within 14 days, you would be verified by the call center before visiting the hospital.

Meanwhile, Hallym University Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital has been implementing thorough access control to prevent COVID-19 infection since last month and operating a screening clinic for infection control in the community. The entrance is restricted to two places, and thermal imaging cameras are installed to check for fever and respiratory symptoms. Moreover, for the recovery of inpatients, visits are entirely restricted.
