In the past few days, affected by the cold wave, the temperature in Shencheng has dropped to freezing, and some roads have formed a thin layer of ice, which has brought inconvenience to the daily travel of citizens, but it has not affected the hurried steps of family doctors.
Early in the morning, Zhu Xuan, a family doctor assistant at the Caojiadu Street Community Health Service Center, carried a heavy bag on his back, rode an electric car, and braved the cold to come to the home of 96-year-old Uncle Dai in Ruili Apartment to give injections and change dressings for the elderly.
Uncle Dai was unable to go out for medical treatment due to his weak health, and needed to be visited twice a week by medical staff for nursing services. As soon as the weather was cold, Uncle Dai was worried about whether the medicine was enough and whether the doctors and nurses could come on time...... "I was relieved to see Dr. Zhu coming." Uncle Dai said.
"Old uncle, pay attention to keep warm when it's cold, and call me if you feel uncomfortable. In the past two days, there are more people infected with respiratory diseases, and your family members should wear masks when they go out to avoid cross-infection. Zhu Xuan told the elderly and their families to pay attention to keeping warm and preventing diseases.
"The cold is Xi for us. Zhu Xuan told reporters that before going out, she pasted two pairs of warm babies on her body and replaced them with heated insoles. "Recently, the weather has been very cold, and there are many families who go to the clinic, especially the elderly patients with hypertension and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. When we encounter a cold wave, we still don't feel at ease, so we have to come to the door to see. Regardless of the severe cold, heat, wind and rain, as long as there is a patient need, he is on call. ”
At noon, Wei Yali, a general practitioner at the Caojiadu Street Community Health Service Center, rushed to the nearby Hengyu Nursing Home to check the elderly after completing the outpatient work.
Hengyu Nursing Home is a member unit of the "Five-Bed Linkage" of Caojiadu Street Community Health Service Center, and Wei Yali is responsible for the daily care and health management of more than 30 elderly people in the nursing home. The weather has been cold these days, and Wei Yali's interaction with the nursing home has become more frequent.
"Winter is the season of high incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular and respiratory diseases, and several elderly people have uncomfortable symptoms such as high blood pressure and chest tightness. Wei Yali said.
78-year-old Sha Ah Po reported dizziness and poor sleep, and Wei Yali carefully measured her blood pressure and checked her physical condition. "Your blood pressure is a little high, and you took medicine in the morning?" Wei Yali told the old man while recording, "Pay attention to keep warm, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, especially don't catch a cold on your head." ”
In the past two days, the family doctors of various community hospitals in Jing'an have been walking non-stop, insisting on door-to-door delivery of medicine and physical examination in the severe cold weather, ensuring the smooth winter of special groups in the jurisdiction and warming the hearts of residents in the jurisdiction.
