Caveat

His Majesty Late King Rama IX had launched many medical and social welfare projects, which targeted faraway or underdeveloped rural areas of the country. Due to the limited number of hospitals in remote areas, many people living in rural areas don’t have no access to proper medical services. One of the projects of the Royal Medical team put forward by the royal initiative of His Majesty Late King Rama IX was to provide mobile medical treatment to local people, Constantly visiting each region of the country with such mobile medical facilities. The Royal Medical Team provided the opportunity for care and free medical support to people from qualified medical professionals. The dentists also joined in with the volunteer work providing simple tooth removal service. This legacy of healthcare and support that the late king had left behind was continued and executed by The Princess Debaratana Rajasuda. The welfare projects have been focusing on the poor and under-educated, which reduced the adverse impacts the locals had suffered before. Most of the poor and uneducated people are engaged in agriculture, which required physical strength. In addition to healthcare, PCMC volunteers also provided the knowledge on ailment prevention and basic self-care. For example, first aid, dental health promotion, simple preventive medication, nutrition, 10 national health recommendations , an exercise program to boost physical strength and fitness, basic life support training and a method for dengue fever prevention.
