# Long An Public Health Service poster, No. 394 (Vietnamese poster distributed in Saigon)

A Vietnamese photo-and-line-drawing sheet headed 'Long-An Health Service'. Photographs show a clinic building, a doctor examining a child and a patient on a mat, a mobile X-ray truck, a pharmacy queue and a village aid station, with captions telling villagers where to go for examination and medicine. The tell is transfer: care is credited to the 'pacification campaign', and card-stacking shows only services provided.

LONG-AN HEALTH SERVICE

Thanks to the pacification campaign, from countryside to town in Long-An, the people have received much care from the health service.

Compatriots, are you ill? Go to the Long-An Health Service on Gia-Long street, next to the Long-An Information Service, to ask for an examination and you will be given medicine for treatment.

From time to time a doctor comes to the village; go to the hamlet office and ask for an examination like this old woman, to receive treatment medicine on the spot.

A doctor examining a child so as to write a prescription.

A patient giving his family and given names to enter the examination room.

A patient receiving an injection from a nurse on the spot.

A farmer being X-rayed for tuberculosis at no cost.

Compatriots enter the outpatient ward to give their names, and then are examined by a doctor and given medicine.

After being examined and given a prescription by the doctor, patients go to the dispensary next door to collect medicine to take home for treatment as the doctor directed.

In addition, if you have a common illness, go to the Tan Sinh hamlet aid station to ask for medicine.
