The Spring Festival is a symbol of reunion and companionship, but for medical staff, sticking to their posts is the constant melody of their Spring Festival. Behind the lights of these thousands of homes, they shoulder the responsibility to protect life and health.
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the emergency department of Hengzhou People's Hospital was busy. Saving people is like fighting a war, and emergency rescue is a battlefield without gunsmoke. This year is the fifth Spring Festival for Director Gao Yunpeng to fight on the front line of the emergency department, for the medical staff in their emergency department, the Chinese New Year often means to face greater challenges, and they must cope with every day's work with higher concentration and good mental state, ensure the quality of medical services during the Spring Festival, and protect people's health.
Gao Yunpeng, Director of the Emergency Department of Hengzhou People's Hospital:
The Chinese New Year period is also often one of the most concentrated periods of the year, and emergency medical staff face greater challenges and difficulties. During the Spring Festival, our emergency department received more than 2,000 people, with a maximum of nearly 300 people a day, more than 20 visits a day, and a total of 94 patients were rescued during the whole holiday, and the maximum number of patients rescued reached 18 times a day.
Also fighting on the front line of medical care are the medical staff of the intensive care department. The intensive care medicine department is the battlefield with the highest concentration of critically ill patients in the hospital, and there is no difference between the New Year's holiday and usual, but the burden on their shoulders is heavier during the Spring Festival, and there are not only many critically ill patients, but they must always be ready to welcome critically ill patients.
He Hong, Director of the Department of Critical Care Medicine, Hengzhou People's Hospital:
As a doctor, I am well aware of my duty to be vigilant at all times to ensure the safety of patients, and although it will reduce a lot of time to reunite with my family, I am very proud to be able to help patients during this special period.
The medical staff on duty during the Spring Festival wrote the responsibility and responsibility of being a doctor with practical actions, they paid silently, without complaints, although they could not reunite with their families, but they guarded the peace of all families with sweat and dedication.
Gao Yunpeng, Director of the Emergency Department of Hengzhou People's Hospital:
Although we are very busy, there are often dozens of patients in the emergency department at the same time to rescue or wait, the waiting time is a bit long, but everyone has given full understanding and cooperation to our work, which is very grateful to our citizens and friends.
He Hong, Director of the Department of Critical Care Medicine, Hengzhou People's Hospital:
It is with everyone's dedication and silent perseverance that more families can celebrate the festival, and at the same time, I hope that the whole society can pay more attention to the dedication and hard work of medical staff, and jointly create a good atmosphere of respect and care.
