Mr. Liu, a migrant worker with a knee injury.
He came to Wuhan Fourth Hospital for medical treatment on a flat shoulder, and when he was discharged, he used the free crutches that the hospital applied for him.
On December 14, Mr. Liu had a follow-up visit as scheduledHe smiled and said, "The crutches are much better than the flat poles." ”
Crutches, wheelchairs, neck braces, lumbar braces and other protective gear.
In patients with orthopedic diseases, period.
plays an important role, but after the patient**, these protective gears that still have use value are facing idleness.
In addition, patients who are still in the ** stage are in great need of these protective gears and have to buy them again.
On the one hand, there is a large number of unused protective gear in the patient's home
On the one hand, there are some difficulties for patients
But it is difficult to afford the cost of protective gear.
The "Love Delivery" platform established by Wuhan Fourth Hospital
It bridges the gap between the two.
Currently,200 sets of unused love protective gear
It has been passed among more than 500 people
A total of more than 250,000 yuan was relieved of the financial pressure of patients.
In order to save money, migrant workers use flat poles instead of crutches
Mr. Liu, 43, lives in Xiaochang County, Hubei Province, but has been doing odd jobs in Wuhan to pick up goods for his son, who is in his second year of high school. "I'm in good physical condition, and I am looking for movers and decorating, and if I am a three-story building, I can run 100 times a day, and I can pick up 70 kilograms of things each time. Mr. Liu said that one yuan for one floor can earn 400 yuan at most at the end of the day, but most of the time it is only about 200 yuan.
Mr. Liu shuttles through the old city of Wuhan every day, looking for work in the old community without elevators, and he said that he has no other way to earn money than relying on physical strength. At the end of each month, Mr. Liu gave most of the money he earned to his son, "When I was a freshman in high school, I had a make-up class, and I was given 3,500 yuan a month." Now he is given 1,500 yuan a month, and he also took the first place in the class in this monthly exam. ”
In mid-September, Mr. Liu was injured in an accident while helping a renovated shop pick up construction waste, and he could only limp on a flat shoulder, and he never went to the doctor because he was worried about spending money. At the beginning of October, Mr. Liu, who was in unbearable pain, came to the Sports Medicine Department of Wuhan Fourth Hospital and was diagnosed with a posterior cruciate ligament and meniscus injury in his left knee, which required surgical reconstruction and repair, and he had to use crutches to assist walking for 6 to 8 weeks after surgery. But a pair of crutches cost Mr. Liu nearly a day's salary, so until the postoperative rounds of the hospital's vice president Zhang Qingsong, Mr. Liu still walked with a flat shoulder, and in the face of inquiries, he also prevaricated that the flat shoulder was easier to use.
After learning about Mr. Liu's difficulties, Zhang Qingsong and Guan Bed** helped him submit an application on the hospital's "Love Transfer" platform, and applied for a pair of crutches matching his height for Mr. Liu for free. His attending physician specifically demonstrated the correct way to use it and precautions. On October 26, Mr. Liu threw his flat shoulder in the inpatient department and returned to Xiaochang on crutches.
Zhang Songqing inspected Mr. Liu's recovery.
On December 14, two months after the operation, when Mr. Liu was on a follow-up visit, he smiled embarrassedly when he saw Zhang Qingsong and said: "It's still easy to use crutches, there is strength on both sides, it is balanced, and it can support the weight of the whole body." There is only one side of the flat shoulder, and the legs have to be forced, which is not safe. At the follow-up visit, Mr. Liu's crutches were still clean and shiny, except for the bottom of the crutches that had been brought to Wuhan from Xiaochang due to the rain. The doctor told Mr. Liu that the flat shoulder he forgot to take home was kept by the ** chief, and when he asked him if he wanted it, Mr. Liu hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't want it, don't want it." ”
A platform of love built by one sentence
The predecessor of the "Love Transfer" volunteer service project was the "Love and Mutual Aid Platform" built by the Sports Medicine Department of Wuhan Fourth Hospital as early as 2017Zhang Qingsong said that the idea of building a "love and mutual aid platform" was also generated in the operation of the "5pm club".
The "5pm club" means that every Wednesday after work at 5 p.m., doctors volunteer to receive patients, answer their questions, and volunteer to help them with ** training。Zhang Qingsong and his team often rush to the ward to help patients with ** immediately after surgery.
Zhang Qingsong saidFor sports medicine patients, the success of the surgery is only half the success, and the postoperative follow-up and training are equally important. Since the outpatient clinic is not given to each patient for a long time, it is impossible to tell the postoperative ** in a few minutes, and if the postoperative patient does not perform the *** surgery correctly and aggressively, the effect will be greatly reduced. The "5pm Club" mainly serves the three no-nos, that is, the elderly who are unaccompanied, the patients who cannot be registered, and the patients who cannot afford the cost of hospitalization.
Medical staff in the protective gear library.
At that time, there were many patients in the club who were in difficult conditions, and we told him that he needed a brace to maintain stability, otherwise he would not be able to achieve the effect in the exercise. Zhang Qingsong said that even if he was told many times, there are still many patients who do not wear any protective gear and start to do ** movements, some of which are really painful will wrap a strip of cloth, and some will clip a pillow. "We'll help you find one. When Zhang Qingsong and his team meet such patients, they often say such a promise, and then look around the ward for suitable protective gear to give to patients in need.
Gradually, "we will help you find one" appeared more and more often, and the idle protective gear in the ward soon could not meet the demand, and the "Love Mutual Aid Platform" was born。At first, the platform provided a way for patients who need protective gear and patients who will not need protective gear to communicate with each other, and patients who need protective gear to exercise can find suitable protective gear by themselves according to the platform information. On April 28, 2022, Wuhan Fourth Hospital and Hubei Charity Federation integrated volunteer service resources, officially launched the "Love Delivery" volunteer service project, established the "Love Delivery" WeChat mini program, and started a new process of donation and donation.
A protective gear with blessings written on it.
The patients also donated and donated enthusiastically
After the establishment of the "Love Transfer" volunteer service project, Jiang Su, secretary of the Youth League Committee of Wuhan Fourth Hospital, began to coordinate the project. The Youth League Committee added a brief introduction of "love transmission" to the patient's admission notice, and asked them to tell the patients that there is such a platform in their daily work, and at the same time post introductions in the ward and publicity columns. Jiang Su saidWhen many patients hear that they can donate protective gear, they donate not only the protective gear they use now, but also other protective gear that is idle at home.
Mr. Chen (pseudonym), who lives in Wuchang, came to the hospital for examination because of his broken foot and was diagnosed with a slight bone crack, and applied for a pair of crutches on the "Love Transfer" platform to assist him in walking during his hospitalization. A month later, Mr. Chen made a special trip to Wuhan Fourth Hospital to return the crutches he had applied for, and gave him a pair of thoracolumbar braces that were idle at home. Ms. Yang (pseudonym), who lives in Hongshan, donated all the protective gear used in her ** process, namely ankle pads, wheelchairs, crutches, etc., ......Ms. Yang said: "These protective gears are placed at home to occupy space, looking traumatic, fortunately there is such a donation platform, and I hope that I will never use them again in the future." ”
Jiang Su saidAfter receiving the donated protective gear, the medical volunteer service team will evaluate, clean and disinfect it, select the protective gear that still meets the standards and can continue to be used, and the professional doctor will match it to the patient who applies on the platform according to his height and weight
In addition to difficult groups like Mr. Liu, "Love Delivery" has also solved the urgent needs of many patients. Mr. Wang, 59 years old this year, was hospitalized due to a sprained waist, and when he heard that he needed to wear a waist brace after the operation, Mr. Wang chased after the doctor and asked, "Where to buy?"What kind of buy?Which model is right?If you don't ask clearly, you are afraid of buying the wrong one, and if you ask clearly, you will feel that the doctor is not in the designated one, and it will be idle when it runs out, and it is a bit expensive to buy a few hundred yuan. After Mr. Wang, who was very entangled, heard from the patient that there was a platform for applying for love protective gear, he immediately asked his daughter to apply for protective gear for him on the small program, and on the third day after the operation, he was matched with the appropriate protective gear, and the doctor demonstrated the correct wearing and exercising methods for him.
At present, the "Love Transfer" volunteer service project has established branches in Wantan Central Health Center of Wufeng Tujia Autonomous County, Yichang City, Hubei Province and Macheng People's Hospital of Hubei Province, and has signed a platform alliance agreement with Jingzhou Third People's Hospital and Xianning Central Hospital, so that patients in these hospitals can enjoy the volunteer services of the "Love Transfer" platform.
