[Dialogue with Yang Youjing]: Put on the clown's red nose and "generate electricity with love"
The protagonist of the movie "Joker Doctor" is called Yang Youjing, she is not an actress, her real profession is a doctor in the Second Department of Geriatrics Medical Care Center of Ya'an People's Hospital in Sichuan Province. She appeared at the event today, whether it was the launch ceremony or the media interview, she wore the red nose of the "clown" the whole time. In an exclusive interview with the Yangtze Evening News Purple Cow News, she repeatedly popularized with reporters that the "clown doctor" is not a doctor, but a volunteer. Talking about the concept of taking the lead in introducing this concept to China 5 years ago, she laughed and said that at that time, it began a long process of "generating electricity with love".

Five years ago, the concept of "Joker Doctor" was first introduced from Israel
"Have you ever seen 'Bits of the Mind', an old comedy with inspirational themes? It was based on the founder of Doctor Clown and the American doctor, Patch Adams. Yang Youjing told reporters that the concept of "clown doctor" was founded in 1968 by Patch Adams, mainly to combine the doctor's expertise and the humor and humor of the clown to alleviate the pain and fear brought by the disease through the power of joy.
In 2014, Yang Youjing stumbled upon the concept of "clown doctor" while in Italy. In 2015, she and two other medical practitioners successfully introduced the concept from Israel, received professional training from Israeli teachers, and established the Sichuan Clown Doctor Public Welfare Charity Promotion Association in the same year, and continued to participate in professional training and obtain qualification certification for the next two years.
Yang Youjing told reporters that the clown doctor, also known as the dream doctor, its concept is relatively unfamiliar in China, but in Israel, Australia, the United States, Canada and Europe, it is a serious and professional profession, and it is a branch of alternative therapy in the field of medicine. Through the power of love and humor, Dr. Clown improves the overall condition of hospitalized patients during treatment, helping patients overcome anxiety and frustration.

Amusing is not the ultimate goal, it is necessary to work the body and mind
How does Doctor Clown work? Put on the "clown red nose", put on the strange costume, funny and funny, can you be a "clown doctor"? How is it different from the average caregiver? In the face of reporters' questions, Yang Youjing told her that when she first came into contact with this concept, she also felt very fresh, but her understanding of it only stopped: dressing up as a clown in a strange costume, performing some funny and humorous performances, so as to amuse patients.
"Of course, our thin understanding does not work well. At the beginning of the first year, when we put on the red nose and entered the ward, we even frightened the children, and it was common to be driven away. In fact, looking back now, it is also easy to understand - it is a kind of forced love and laughter for patients, they are more sensitive than ordinary people, and they are more unacceptable. Yang Youjing reflected like this.
From 2015 to 2017, they underwent three levels of training, "the first year simply learning to blow bubbles and do magic to be funny; the second year, learning observation skills, as well as non-verbal skills such as eye contact; and in the third year, we learned balanced relationships." With the first two years of ward practice and professional study, in the third year, we can understand it. Yang Youjing said that now they enter the ward, through everyone's eyes, an action, they can judge their psychology, amusing patients is not the ultimate goal of the clown doctor, patients in addition to their own pain, there is also a mood of unhappiness. In order to alleviate the suffering of patients, it is necessary to work hard both psychologically and physically. In general, the "clown doctor" mainly observes and records the patient's condition and psychological changes through performance, and reports it to the doctor, so as to follow up the treatment, which is a systematic thing.
Yang Youjing and her "fan sister"
The words of 7-year-olds became their slogs
In the past 5 years, Yang Youjing has gained a lot of emotions, as well as "shock". On December 24, 2015, when their understanding of the concept of "clown doctor" was not deep enough, with enthusiasm to go to the pediatric ward, a 7-year-old child ran up to her and said, "Happiness is the best medicine." This sentence shocked her, and later became the promotional slog of their "Joker Doctor".
Another time, they took the head nurse to the county hospital, and the head nurse put on a red nose and walked into the ward and gently sang "Sweet Honey", and when she sang "Where have I seen you", an aunt cried. The head nurse continued to sing, and slowly walked over to hug her to finish singing, and the aunt cried and said, "Thank you, obedient." "Chinese is generally very subtle, so crying in public is equivalent to expressing emotions."
Such a Western role as "Joker" will definitely make Yang Youjing harvest incomprehensible. "We generally take the two-person cooperation method, set the A and B roles, one person does the action, one person observes the patient, and when he is driven out, the senior teacher outside the ward will review the analysis." A few days ago we went to the orthopedic surgery ward, the first time we were driven out, orthopedic surgery patients are generally seriously ill, and spend a lot, the mood is very bad. Our head nurse analyzed it and then went in, told them that the 'clown doctor' was a volunteer and talked for a while, and the family member cried, opened his heart and said, 'I'm so hard.'" Yang Youjing said that whether the eyes are sincere or not is easy to be felt, and the family feels that someone understands him and has empathy.
She also laughed that because of the dress and demeanor of the "Joker Doctor", they went to the pediatric ward, which was always considered to be peddling toys at first, and was often driven away by their parents.
I hope to use the movie to let more people join in
Speaking of the size and number of "clown doctors", Yang Youjing said that there were about 160 people in the country, but many people are difficult to stick to, "We are now an organization recognized by the Ministry of Civil Affairs to do volunteer services in hospitals, but volunteers not only have no additional income, but also need to pay a lot of time, even money, so the people who join in must have enough love and really use love to generate electricity." ”
Yang Youjing said that this time she was associated with the movie "Joker Doctor", and she also hoped that through it, more people would understand it and arouse more professional social volunteers and social workers to join in.
