"In fact, this is not the first time we have received a 'red code mother', we also received a visit in November last year..." On the occasion of may fourth youth day, the reporter interviewed Wu Chunxia, head of the nursing team of the infection department of Chengdu First People's Hospital (Chengdu Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine), to pay attention to the story behind her two visits to "red code mother".
"Red Code Mom" is about to give birth
Urgent phone calls for help
"I remember it was the night of February 20, when an expectant mother called us to the hospital and said she was isolated at home and was about to give birth." According to Wu Chunxia, one night in February 2022, the First People's Hospital of Chengdu received an emergency call from an expectant mother, whose husband returned to Chengdu from abroad, and according to the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, the father-to-be needs to isolate at home after centralized isolation. However, during the home isolation period, the family's health code has become red, and the expectant mother originally planned to wait until the due date was close to the expected date and then wait for delivery in the hospital after the unsealing, but the plan could not catch up with the change, and before the unsealing was lifted, the child came to report in advance. Subsequently, under the overall arrangement of the hospital leaders, the infectious disease department, the emergency department, the obstetrics and gynecology department, the anesthesia department, and the neonatology department were notified that all departments should be quickly put in place, and multi-departments should work together to help the "red code mother" give birth smoothly.
"In fact, this is not the first time we have received a 'red code mother', we also received a visit in November last year, because of the experience of the first visit, we are not so panicked in our hearts."
According to Wu Chunxia, the infection department set up an isolation ward, pregnant women were arranged to be admitted to a separate isolation ward after arriving at the hospital, and the nurses in the obstetric department went to the isolation ward to help pregnant women prepare maternity kits and delivery supplies after wearing protective clothing and making a full set of protection, and helped pregnant women give birth smoothly.
"When we first met a pregnant woman, we were actually very panicked, but we were also very excited, because a small life would be born in our isolation ward. This time, we made the preparations, and when they sent the pregnant women over, we were still more at ease. ”
The epidemic is merciless
Warmth and love are never absent
"I remember that my first day on work was May 27, the day I was assigned to the Nephrology Department, and later because of the epidemic, I was transferred from the Nephrology Department to the Infection Department of the Second Medical Observation Ward, and I have been working since January 2020. I am very satisfied with my current job because here I have a very warm family. ”
"There are so many things that impress me, because I feel that every patient we come into contact with is different, there are different things." According to Wu Chunxia, they once received a patient who had returned from Cambodia, and this patient could only eat and drink In bed. The patient was supposed to be isolated in the quarantine hotel, but the hotel did not have the medical conditions required and was sent to the isolation ward of the hospital's infectious disease department. At that time, the hospital arranged a doctor and two nurses to take care of the patient, and Wu Chunxia was one of the nurses. "The patient returned home for rehabilitation after isolation in the hospital, and after he was discharged from the hospital, he ordered a pennant online to give to us, which is also a recognition of our work." Wu Chunxia said.
Coordinate doctor-patient relationships
Spend special times together
According to Wu Chunxia, the nurses of the hospital's infectious disease department have undergone strict training, and the theoretical and operational skills training can be formally put on the job, especially since the outbreak of the epidemic, the medical staff will make timely adjustments according to the relevant policies of epidemic prevention and control. "The hospital's epidemic prevention and control has done a very good job, and if there is psychological pressure, it may come more from the emotional reassurance of some patients." For example, the hospital has a fever clinic, and patients with fever symptoms will come to the fever clinic for treatment. Before the nucleic acid results come out, the patient can not leave the fever clinic, most patients can understand and cooperate, but occasionally encounter some patients are more emotional, in this regard, there is actually a little psychological pressure. Wu Chunxia introduced.
"There are also some patients who think that they can go home immediately after seeing the doctor, but because of the relationship between epidemic prevention and control, the patients with fever are high-risk patients, and they cannot leave immediately after seeing a doctor, and they have to wait for the nucleic acid report." That's when we need to communicate with the patient. Because nucleic acid reporting takes 4 to 6 hours, some patients will think that the hospital has locked them up there, and there will be some mood swings... But these are very few cases, usually encourage our patients will be more, they say 'you are also very hard', 'wear so thick are still here to work', 'so big sun still wear protective clothing', every time you hear these very warm words, I feel that everything is worth it. Wu Chunxia said.
