Mobile hospitals bring treatment to remote areas

It is not easy for villagers living in mountainous areas to see a doctor at a county hospital due to inconvenient and costly transportation.

However, locals from remote and rural areas in mountainous Yanchuan county in Yan'an city, Northwest China's Shaanxi province, now have access to high-quality door-to-door medical services thanks to mobile hospitals.

Yanchuan, which has a population of 192,000, was one of two impoverished counties that announced the end of their poverty status recently. Of its population, there are 22,135 people who are impoverished.
