Residents who go out for medical treatment can be transported in a closed-loop after reporting, and critically ill patients will be transported by 120

Shanghai has made it clear that medical institutions should not be closed unless necessary. During this round of screening, how to ensure the medical needs of residents in the closed area? Who else can enter and exit the closed area? Can people who have medical needs between Pudong and Puxi cross districts? At 9:00 this morning, Shanghai held the 136th press conference on the prevention and control of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic. Wu Jinglei, director of the Municipal Health and Health Commission, said that a special work plan has been formulated, requiring all medical institutions to effectively ensure the smooth flow of emergency green channels. Fever clinics, hemodialysis, intensive care, obstetrics, pediatrics, radiotherapy and chemotherapy and other key departments provide services and admission to hospitalized patients. Each district designates designated medical institutions to form a counterpart relationship with the corresponding streets and towns to provide emergency medical services for residents in the streets and towns. Each designated medical institution designates a dedicated line to answer medical calls and open it to the public to unblock the channels for medical treatment.

For residents who really need to go out for medical treatment, non-critical and critically ill patients, after reporting to the community management and control staff, the street, town and village committees will arrange special vehicles to transfer the patients to designated medical institutions in a closed-loop. For critically ill patients, the streets and towns or village committees should contact “120” emergency vehicles for transport. Patients or their families can also call “120” by themselves. The emergency center will give priority to dispatching vehicles to meet the medical needs of critically ill patients.

Medical personnel, epidemic prevention personnel, public security officers, takeaway couriers, etc. for work needs can travel normally with work permits or unit certificates.

About the cross-regional medical treatment in Pudong and Puxi, it is generally recommended to solve the problem in the closed control area. In special cases, the community can assist in closed-loop transfer to the required medical institutions. (Xinmin Evening News reporter Zuo Yan)
