Recently, a fan shared her father's experience.
Her father, who felt back pain after a fall at home, decided to go to the hospital for a check-up. At the hospital, he was told that he needed to be hospitalized, but his family could not accompany him and that he needed to call in a professional nurse.
This left her and her family confused and worried, and they didn't understand why they couldn't take care of their father on their own and had to pay for a caregiver. I contacted the attending doctor at the hospital, Dr. Li.
Dr Lee explained that the hospital's policy of not having family members accompany them but hiring professional nurses is mainly based on several considerations.
Dr Lee pointed out that professional nurses are systematically trained. Professional caregivers are more professional in dealing with emergencies such as acute pain, difficulty breathing, etc., than family members.
Dr Lee emphasised that professional nurses can better cooperate with doctors in their various treatment plans. They understand the hospital's protocols and patients' care requirements, and can effectively carry out doctor's orders, such as medication management, disease observation, etc.
In addition, Dr Lee explained that many family members may feel physically and mentally exhausted for a long time due to a lack of nursing knowledge and experience. Professional caregivers are able to help effectively and give families a proper rest.
Although this policy may increase the financial burden on the patient's family, in the long run, the intervention of professional caregivers can improve the quality of care and help the patient's recovery.
After listening to Dr. Lee's explanation, fans and her family have a deeper understanding of the hospital's policies. They decided to follow the hospital's advice and hired a professional nurse for their father.
They have seen significant improvements, their father's recovery is progressing well, and they are happy with their decision to hire a carer. In the modern healthcare system, the importance of professional nursing cannot be overlooked.
While family care is important for patients, professional care can provide more effective support in many ways.
Understanding and trusting the advice of medical professionals when faced with patient care issues is an important step in helping patients recover quickly.
In the process, the fans' families also began to recognize the importance of working with professional caregivers. Gradually, they learned to communicate with their caregivers and discuss their father's care plan together to ensure that care was tailored to both the doctor's recommendations and the father's specific needs.
Over time, they discovered that professional caregivers provided basic life care and medical care. The professional skills and attentive care of the caregivers made the father feel more comfortable and at ease during his hospitalization.
This kind of peace of mind is also difficult for family members to provide. In addition, Dr. Lee advises families to take advantage Xi of this opportunity to learn some basic nursing skills.
In this way, after the father is discharged from the hospital, the family members will be able to take better care of him and help him recover faster. With the help of professional caregivers and the joint efforts of family members, the father's condition has improved significantly.
This experience gave the whole family a deeper understanding and respect for medical care. They realize that good medical care includes not only medication, but also professional nursing services and the support of family members.
