Charoenchai Hinthao, Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Thai Army (Commander) to inspect the camp. and looked at military housing that had been built for more than 100 years, some of which were more than 80 years old, and traveled further to see Prajaksilpakom Hospital, which has 200 beds, which was densely populated.Traveling to inspect this time It went according to all the plans that had been laid out. I talked with the Army Commander-in-Chief about many things, including housing. hospital matters About military debt Including the matter of personnel, there is talk that there will be a reduction in the number of personnel. But don't talk about reducing the power of doctors, nurses, and medical technicians. Because some matters are specialized such as doctors, nurses or medical technology. There should be no reduction in personnel. Because every military hospital across the country serves about 70-80% of the people and there are not enough doctors. For example, Prajaksilpakom Hospital has only 19 doctors and 200 patient beds, making it insufficient. It can be seen that a large number of people go to receive services. However, when the people who went to receive treatment were asked if they were satisfied or not. which all citizens confirmed that they were very happy And this visit was not specified in the plan. Everyone has a cheerful smile on their face.The Prime Minister said that he had also gone to see if the equipment was sufficient or not. Including the personnel and income of pharmacists who are still lacking. Esp ecially pharmacists working in military hospitals. Earn less than pharmacists working in public health. I'm also a government official. But there are different incomes. He wondered why there must be a difference like this. The Army Commander sat in the car together and talked about many things that we can do to make the lives of the people better.When asked about 30 baht treatment everywhere Can it be started or not? The Prime Minister said that there is a part and people are already using it. But there are still many disbursement problems. There will be a discussion with Dr. Chonnan Srikaew, Minister of Public Health.When asked if it would be possible to participate in the 30 baht treatment project everywhere together, the Prime Minister said that he absolutely could. But the big problem is that there are not enough personnel. However, as for the military, there is Phramongkutklao Hospital which is under the supervision of the Royal Thai Army. Play a part in helping produce quality personnel, promoting e conomic growth and helping the people. This is an important matter. Reducing personnel must not be related to this part.As for whether the Ministry of Public Health and the military can integrate their work together, the Prime Minister said that of course, because at present 70% of military hospitals are civilians receiving treatment. Major hospitals such as Phramongkutklao Hospital and many other places People also go to receive services. The hospital has 200 beds and there are more than 10 hospitals throughout the country. And every hospital, more than 70%, takes care of the people. In addition, small service establishments such as health centers We have to help take care of that too.The Army Commander-in-Chief also said that military hospitals can participate in the 30 baht treatment project everywhere.
