The most embarrassing thing about seeing a doctor in the hospital is basically to have a physical examination in front of a doctor or nurse. For example, breast exams, abdominal exams, etc., involving private parts or details of private life, which require the exposure of a part of the body.
At a hospital in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, Ms. Dong and her husband do preconception tests for their upcoming baby. After completing the breast examination, Ms. Dong was still not dressed, when a female doctor suddenly slammed the door and entered, and the wind that brought in lifted the curtain. At this time, there were several men in the corridor outside the door, and they saw this scene, which made Ms. Dong feel embarrassed and angry.
Ms. Dong (angry): "How can you push the door in at will? I'm not dressed yet! "Confronted the female doctor on the spot and demanded an apology.
Female doctor (disagreed): "You're so traditional that if you give birth, you think it's nothing." The implication is that this lady's thinking is conservative and too traditional, in her opinion, because this lady has not yet given birth, and the woman will look away after giving birth, so that she should not care so much.
The doctor's calm and indifferent attitude made Ms. Dong feel greatly insulted, so she asked to find their leader and ask the hospital for explanations.
The hospital initially offered to pay 300 yuan in compensation, which later rose to 1,000 yuan. But Ms. Dong insisted that the hospital apologize publicly and said no compensation was needed.
The hospital responded that there was indeed a case, and that the doctor's practice of pushing the door into the door was inappropriate and would be paid attention to in the future. At the same time, the hospital investigated the corridor surveillance and found that there were 2 men and 1 woman standing outside the corridor, not the 4 men mentioned by Ms. Dong.
The hospital said that it was not impossible to meet Ms. Dong's demands, but she felt that giving the money was insulting to her, and even made a claim for 200,000 yuan in compensation.
Ms. Dong responded that she had not raised a claim for 200,000 yuan, but only said 100,000 yuan in anger, but did not really ask for money. She still insisted that the hospital apologize publicly.
I see, it is normal to encounter this in the hospital, and this doctor did not mean it, but this patient was a little fussy and fussy. There are many people, many things, and a lot of pressure in places like hospitals, and there are really not so many people.
I believe that many netizens will also encounter some embarrassing things in the hospital when giving birth, feeling that the place of life and death, who still cares about being not seen, life is important, health and safety are important, you want doctors to take care of your smooth birth for this kind of thing, if you want doctors to be careful, it is all kinds of delays.
From the doctor's point of view, if you put it seriously, this incident exposes the shortcomings of doctors in their daily work, especially in the protection of patient privacy.
In this case, the doctor should knock on the door before entering the consultation room to confirm that the patient is dressed to avoid accidental exposure of the patient's privacy, but this will affect the efficiency of the work, and there are many patients in the hospital itself, so there is not so much care.
In addition, doctors should humbly apologize for their mistakes in the face of complaints from patients, rather than blaming patients for their overly traditional concepts.
From the patient's point of view: Ms. Dong was indeed greatly embarrassed in this incident, and her privacy was violated. She has the right to demand an apology from the doctor and complain to the hospital.
However, her appeal may have been influenced by emotions, causing her to show a certain aggressiveness in dealing with the problem, how is 200,000 compensation possible? If you are a male gynecologist, you must not pay 1.8 million yuan? This can make the process of solving the problem more difficult.
Many netizens have also encountered this situation
The doctor outside the door did not know that the pregnancy test lady inside was not dressed and was standing facing the door. But the men standing at the door all accompanied their wives to do pregnancy tests, and they had no intention of glancing at them and had no ideas.
From this point of view, doctors are not responsible, men are not responsible, and the huge compensation is a bit excessive. Next time, pay attention, post a notice that men should not enter the pregnancy test area to avoid similar things from happening again.
There was nothing, as soon as this matter was reported, everyone in China knew that so-and-so was seen, and it was a little embarrassing!
Many netizens said that there is really no privacy in the hospital, there are men and women in the same ward, the patient is inconvenient to move, urinate at the bedside to solve, it is also a common thing, the beautiful nurse came, calm as if she didn't see anything, do what you should do, if you care so much it's better not to get sick.
I also tried on pants before the doctor opened the door and came in, fortunately they were all women!
In summary, this incident reveals the shortcomings of doctors in protecting patients' privacy, and also reflects the excesses that patients may have in the process of defending their rights.
Hospitals should strengthen doctors' professional ethics training and improve service quality to avoid the recurrence of similar incidents. At the same time, patients should also remain rational, properly handle disputes, and strive to protect their legitimate rights and interests.
