Some Beijing hospitals do not allow family members to accompany them in the ward, and they can only pay for nurses to take care of patients. This regulation has sparked confusion and anger among many people, who believe that hospitals are inhumane, to make more money, and disrespectful to patients and families. However, this regulation is an adjustment made by hospitals in order to ensure the safety and privacy of patients, improve the quality and efficiency of medical care, and adapt to changes in medical models and concepts.
The incident has caused widespread discussion and controversy on the Internet. Some are skeptical about the reasonableness of this rule, arguing that family accompaniment is done with love and care and that hospitals should not deprive them of the opportunity to provide emotional support. Others argue that hospital regulations are motivated by concerns about patient safety and privacy, as well as the need to improve the quality and efficiency of care.
At home and abroad, it is not uncommon for family members to be accompanied by a caregiver. Such regulations have been implemented in some private hospitals and high-end medical institutions for many years and have proven to be an effective way of medical management. For example, some private hospitals in the United States also restrict family members from entering the wards and provide caregiver services. Similarly, similar regulations have appeared in public hospitals in some places.
This regulation imposes a certain financial burden on patients and their families, and may also reduce the emotional support and sense of security of patients. However, it can also ensure patient safety and privacy, improve the quality and efficiency of care, and adapt to changes in medical models and philosophies. As a result, this regulation has implications for hospital management, medical services, and patient experience.
The hospital's rule that the hospital does not allow family members to accompany the nurse and can only hire a nurse has caused widespread controversy and discussion in the society. Although this regulation does bring certain inconvenience and burden to patients and their families, from the perspective of hospital management, this regulation is reasonable and necessary. Hospitals need to ensure patient safety and privacy, improve the quality and efficiency of care, and adapt to changes in healthcare models and philosophies. Therefore, when formulating and implementing this regulation, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the needs and rights and interests of patients and their families, and seek a reasonable balance.
