Ensure continuous medical treatment. Emergency department medical staff fully protect patients’ health.

CCTV News:During this period, the number of emergency patients in many hospitals has increased. Han Xiaotong, director of the emergency department and respiratory therapy department of Hunan Provincial People’s Hospital, and his colleagues took over day and night to ensure continuous medical treatment and protect the lives and health of patients.

At 9 o’clock in the morning, Han Xiaotong was making rounds. During this time, nearly 300 people were admitted to the emergency department every day, most of whom were elderly people infected with Covid-19 and suffering from basic diseases. Doctors and nurses shuttle in front of each hospital bed, and go upstairs and downstairs to coordinate the referral department. In order to ensure the treatment of critically ill patients, Han Xiaotong and his colleagues stick to the front line and have been working for more than 12 hours every day for 11 consecutive days.

Despite the sharp increase in the number of patients, the medical staff still showed strong psychological quality and emergency ability at critical moments, and allocated beds for patients in an orderly manner, arranged examinations, and gave symptomatic treatment to ensure the efficient operation of the emergency department and spared no effort to protect patients’ lives and health.

These chat records were intercepted by Han Xiaotong from the work group. During this time, medical staff were infected one after another. Han Xiaotong tried to ask everyone in the group: "Who can return to work tomorrow?" Colleagues who are gradually recovering have replied "I can return to the team" in the group. Seeing that everyone responded positively, Han Xiaotong’s heart was full of confidence.
