“Patients’ smiles are our greatest comfort”

“For the elderly who cannot take care of themselves in the ward, we are their ‘protective umbrella’ and ‘safe haven’, and we will try our best to help them as much as we can.” Feng Feng, a medical team member of Zhongshan Hospital and a nurse in the G17 ward Ting said.

Grandma Liu had a history of cavitary infarction when she came to the hospital, and the right half of her body could not move. The nurses in the ward paid special attention to her diet and daily life. In the process of feeding a patient, Feng Ting found that she had not been able to eat very much. She thought it was unwell. After testing, she found that the vital signs of the old man were stable. Feng Ting asked Grandma Liu to hug her, help her sit up, and chat with her like family.

After a while, Grandma Liu’s original nervous expression eased, and she showed a faint smile.

“Older patients with mobility difficulties are actually just like children, they also have emotions.< /span>As a nursing staff, if you can observe and give your heart to guide them to stabilize their emotions, it will be very helpful for their early recovery.” Feng Ting said.

Uncle Lu is also a patient who cannot take care of himself. When he was first transferred to Ward G16, his family members could not accompany him, so he was impatient, and sometimes could not cooperate well with the medical staff in various operations.

Huang Yuting, a nurse in Ward G16, assisted the elderly in active and passive activities in bed according to the condition of the elderly, and helped him relieve the discomfort caused by long-term bed rest.

After patient communication and care from the medical and nursing staff, the old man’s mood gradually stabilized, and he began to actively cooperate with the treatment, and his physical condition improved significantly. People are becoming more cheerful and optimistic.

“The most beautiful dormitory head” treats diseases and is more compassionate

Aunt Wu had obvious symptoms when she first moved into the ward. Anxiety, “Doctor, I’m in pain now, I’ve been here for ten days, when will I be able to go home?” After a fainting, Aunt Wu’s tears couldn’t stop pouring out.

After communication, Mao Yingying, the head of the nursing team in the G7 ward, learned that Aunt Wu’s son is also a new crown patient, but the mother and son were divided into different hospitals for treatment. Aunt Wu has never been separated from her son for such a long time. , the sudden separation kept her awake all night.

Affected by the constant nervousness, Aunt Wu’s “anxiety” became more and more serious. She refused to take the sleeping aids prescribed by the doctor, preferring to stay up all night. Seeing Aunt Wu’s helpless appearance, the medical staff tried their best to relieve her and encouraged her to video chat with her son.

Until she saw that her son was in stable condition and had a positive attitude, Aunt Wu’s mood began to improve.

In order to further relieve her anxiety, the nurses “appointed” Aunt Wu as the “dorm head” to help count the living needs of the patients and report to the nurses.

After receiving the task, Aunt Wu suddenly became active. In the next few days, she became the “big sister in the bedroom” and listened carefully to the needs of her “roommates”, and she became much more cheerful.

Finally, after 2 consecutive negative nucleic acid conversions, she can be discharged smoothly! On the day of discharge, Aunt Wu returned the sleeping pills that she had not taken the night before to the nurse: “I can sleep without taking medicine now.” Seeing Aunt Wu smiling and waving goodbye to everyone, the hearts of the nurses warmed.

In the G12 ward, an elderly couple in their 70s were extremely anxious because they were quarantined. In addition, they were not very good at using mobile phones and could not communicate with the outside world. After Sun Minzhu, the head nurse of the ward, returned to the station, she downloaded news, books and other materials, printed them into books, and sent “reading materials” to the elderly every day to relieve their boredom.

Not only do the elderly have “reading materials”, but Sun Minzhu also prints out homework for children who need it. “If you need anything, you can tell us. We have many doctors who have graduated from doctoral degrees and can also help with homework!”

Thousands of miles to help, the emergency treatment on the night of arrival in Shanghai

“emergency time” comes as soon as it is said. On the night of arriving in Shanghai on April 6, Jiang Libo, a member of the medical team of Fudan Zhongshan Xiamen Hospital and an orthopedic expert, who was still in the resident hotel, received an emergency “task”: a new crown patient suffered bilateral calcaneal fractures due to trauma, and urgent treatment was required!

Dr. Jiang Libo rushed to the hospital immediately after receiving the instruction. After careful medical history, physical examination and imaging examination, Dr. Jiang Libo performed bilateral calf plaster external fixation for the patient, and instructed The ice pack, elevation, and close observation of the blood supply, sensation and movement of the lower extremities.

It was not until the patient’s condition and mood stabilized that Jiang Libo returned to the resident hotel with confidence.

In this designated hospital, patients sit in a row in the corridor, what are they doing? A popular science lecture is in progress. Tang Fengrong, a member of the Shanghai-aided medical team of Zhongshan Xiamen Hospital, and Chen Nan, a member of the Department of Cardiac Surgery of Zhongshan HospitalPhysicians jointly teach and share content on psychology, disease prevention and treatment.

The members of the medical team said that in an unfamiliar environment, patients will be more or less anxious, and popularizing more knowledge for patients is the most practical help for patients.

“This is not only a ward, but also a big warm family. After listening to the lecture, I feel much more relaxed.” The patient was still not satisfied after the lecture.

Under the same roof, whether it is the anti-epidemic medical team of Zhongshan Hospital Headquarters or the medical team of Fudan Zhongshan Xiamen Hospital in Shanghai, the medical team members are united as one to overcome the difficulties and treat patients with superb technology.
