Zhang Qinqin, a nurse in the emergency department of Weifang Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital: an emergency sentinel on the front line of epidemic prevention and control

Being an emergency nurse requires not only a strong will, but also a willingness to give silently. Under the dual burden of epidemic prevention and control and emergency and critical care, Zhang Qinqin, a nurse in the emergency department of Weifang Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, has written the oath of “life first” with no regrets for 16 years.

In her 16-year career as a nurse, Zhang Qinqin has always worked in the most advanced emergency department. With the increasing pressure of epidemic prevention and control, all emergency responders are on standby in the hospital 24 hours a day, facing all kinds of sudden and critically ill patients and nervous and anxious family members every day. Everyone is under the dual pressure of physical and psychological, and it is always a test , Everything is a test. Thanks to repeated drills and long-term practice, Zhang Qinqin and her colleagues can always face it in an orderly and calm manner: protection, getting out of the car, receiving a doctor, first aid, and investigation… She believes: “In the face of difficulties and dangers, I should be the first Standing up, I have experience and patience, and taking the initiative to undertake some work can also reduce the psychological pressure of young comrades.”

16 years of emergency life have cultivated Zhang Qinqin’s solid first aid ability. She always adheres to the principle of meticulous work, and neither of the epidemic prevention and control investigation nor the emergency and critical care treatment can be relaxed. The test is the ability to race against time, and the test is to “get full marks” in the most urgent situation. Once, Zhang Qinqin took 120 out of the car to pick up an elderly asthmatic patient. The car had not completely stopped, but she had already entered the state. She smoothly pushed the patient into the emergency room, quickly collected nucleic acids, and then neatly monitored and monitored the patient. Sputum suction, infusion, assisted tracheal intubation, ventilator-assisted breathing… She worked closely with her colleagues until the elderly’s blood oxygen saturation rose from 65% to 96% out of danger. Do you have any tips for doing emergency work well? The only word is hard work. Zhang Qinqin and his colleagues worked, studied and summarized, and constantly improved every detail, because only when everyone became an emergency sentinel on the front line of epidemic prevention and control can every patient see a doctor safely.

16 years of perseverance day and night, Zhang Qinqin often used one sentence to describe: “I am a brick of the revolution, where is it needed? Move.” Before there was an epidemic in a nearby city, Zhang Qinqin and his colleagues went to support overnight, carrying out the task of receiving and transporting nucleic acid samples. The nucleic acid collection specimen box contains two or three hundred swab tubes in a small number, and four or five hundred swab tubes in a large number. She is fully armed with three-level protection and her pace is steady, forgetting the hard work. When picking up critically ill patients in the sealed and controlled areas, she is always the first to protect herself, and then carefully helps her colleagues check whether the protective measures are in place. Shuttle through the spring rain, the goggles were covered with water mist, she could only shake her head and threw herself into the tense rescue. Someone asked her, aren’t you afraid of entering and leaving the sealed zone? She wiped the sweat from her face and said with a smile, “Every day is an actual battle. As long as you take good care of yourself, there is nothing to be afraid of.”

As emergency nurses, only with strong skills can they take on the heavy trust of people’s lives. Zhang Qinqin has worked hard to practice emergency skills, precisely because saving lives cannot tolerate any deviations. As for her selfless work, she is most concerned about her family, especially her lovely children: “My current wish is very simple, one is to overcome the epidemic and life will return to the right track; the other is to hope that my family members can be healthy Happiness, if you have the opportunity, you must take the children out for a walk and see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.”
