"The patient's vital signs at night were stable and there was no particular discomfort." This is the voice that every patient's family is looking forward to, and it is also a moment of deep relief for every medical staff. At 8 o'clock in the morning of May 8, after completing the handover with colleagues, Xie Zefang, a nurse from the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of Ningyuan County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, showed a satisfied smile. She has been in the nursing position for 7 years, and she knows that as a clinical nurse, she needs to be rigorous and professional enough to stay focused and make zero mistakes in every work, especially the night shift, although it is difficult, but it should be taken more seriously.

At the end of 2023, she participated in the medium-length catheter application training organized by the Yongzhou Nursing Society and successfully obtained the certificate. After returning to the unit, a medium-length intravenous catheter was successfully inserted for an ICU patient, which made the hospital have a zero breakthrough in medium-length intravenous catheter placement technology.

A caregiver full of sunshine can warm both themselves and patients. "You have to love your work, and you can work better with love." In between work, He Yanfang, a nurse at Ningyuan County Maternal and Child Health Hospital, mentioned her profession with a smile in the corner of her eyes. As a midwife, her job is to welcome the arrival of a new life, and her hands hold up the hope of tomorrow, whether it is a shallow smile, words of comfort, or a simple handshake, it is encouragement and support for the mother. "You're not alone, you have your family and us." In the past eight years of work, He Yanfang has comforted the mother in this way, and continued to welcome the birth of a new life with patience, carefulness and a sense of responsibility.
"When it comes to wounds, many people will stay away, thinking of unacceptable scenes of foul smell, carrion, pus and blood. But I know that if you want to do this job well, you must have excellent professional skills and work hard to complete it. Zeng Min, a nurse at the wound ostomy clinic of Ningyuan County People's Hospital, mentioned her nursing work with a proud face. After 13 years in the industry, Zeng Min has not stopped making progress. She has gone to Hunan Provincial Cancer Hospital and Xiangya Hospital for further study, and obtained the international ostomy therapist qualification certified by the International Association of Ostomy Therapists (WCET). On March 9, 2023, the hospital established a wound ostomy clinic, creating a precedent for Ningyuan nursing staff to sit for consultation, and it is also the first batch of nursing experts to visit "Internet + nursing services", so that patients can enjoy professional nursing services that are homogeneous with the hospital without leaving home.
