Career Swaps:
"Angel in White" VS "Blue Friend"
Skills are "eye-opening"
On the morning of the 10th, the nurse representatives of the adult women and children walked into the Sichuan Forest Fire Special Service Brigade, visited the camp under the leadership of the firefighters, and learned about the various fire trucks and rescue equipment used by the "blue friends" in their usual rescue. The audience in the live broadcast room called it "eye-opening".
Immediately afterwards, the live camera turned to the earthquake rescue site. Here, the firefighters demonstrated the operation and use of earthquake rescue equipment, and invited nurse representatives of women and children to experience their posts. Several "angels in white" put on protective equipment and simulated the on-site rescue situation after the earthquake under the guidance of firefighters. After experiencing it personally, several "guest firefighters" have expressed that they feel the difficulty of fire rescue work, "Every step in the rescue process needs to be completed very rigorously, and every action is 'a millimeter missing, a thousand miles away'." ”
At the end of the live broadcast, it was raining in the sky, and an 8-month-old search and rescue dog "Ping'an", a special "blue friend" of the Sichuan Forest Fire Special Service Brigade, demonstrated the "box search and rescue in rainy days" training with his handler. The heroic and professional performance of the well-behaved "Ping'an" on the training ground has also been praised by netizens.
In the afternoon of the same day, the camera of the live broadcast turned to Chengdu Women and Children's Central Hospital. The nurses led the firefighter representatives of the Sichuan Forest Fire Brigade to visit the traditional delivery room and the integrated delivery room, introduced the medical equipment in the delivery room, and conducted a simulation teaching of doula delivery and neonatal cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
In the simulated labor process and neonatal care sessions, the medical staff invited the firefighters to have a hands-on experience. The firefighters not only played the role of mothers and felt the pain and difficulty of childbirth, but also played the role of nurses and midwives, learning the skills of helping mothers relieve pain and deliver babies. In addition, the two "blue friends" also became "dads" and learned basic care skills such as bathing newborns, holding babies, and comforting babies. After experiencing the daily working environment and professional skills of the nurses, several firefighters expressed their understanding and respect for medical work.
During the live broadcast, the "Angel in White" and "Blue Friend" also demonstrated the method of first aid, and called on everyone: everyone talks about safety, and everyone will be able to respond to emergencies.
Rescue Story Sharing:
The light of rebirth × the hand of the rescue
Relay to build a safe and healthy line of defense
In countless frontlines of rescue and disaster relief, we can always see the moving pictures of firefighters and medical staff racing against time to complete the rescue "relay". In this live broadcast event, firefighter representatives and nurse representatives shared their rescue stories respectively, which attracted continuous praise in the comment area of the live broadcast room.
In the Hall of Honor of the Sichuan Forest Fire Brigade Honor Brigade, rows of medals, certificates and photo walls are displayed, which are full of the tears and hardships of the firefighters, recording one thrilling rescue moment after another.
For Liu Gan, a firefighter from Luding, Sichuan, that special rescue operation in 2022 is something he will never forget. He stood in front of a photo showing the "9.5" Luding earthquake relief site, and told his experience - the earthquake disaster hit his hometown, his family was lost for a while, as a firefighter, although he was anxious, but he knew that he had a greater responsibility on his shoulders, so he resolutely stuck to the front line of rescue and rescue with his comrades. Thankfully, his father soon received news that although the houses in the village had been damaged, the villagers had been evacuated to a safe place with the help of firefighters.
It turned out that when Liu Qian was guarding the safety of the people in his hometown, his comrades-in-arms were also guarding his family. "I am really full of reverence for the firefighters, whenever you face a critical moment, you always love the present, 'give up your small family, for everyone', and put the safety of the people first!" After listening to Liu Gan's rescue story, Song Yan, the principal of the Adult Women and Children Pregnant Women School, praised in the live broadcast.
Yan Zhonghui, a nurse from Chengdu Women and Children's Central Hospital, also has rich rescue experience, and she has been present at the earthquake rescue site of the "5.12" Wenchuan earthquake, the "4.14" Yushu earthquake, and the "9.5" Luding earthquake. In the Yushu earthquake rescue, due to the urgency of the situation, a two- or three-year-old injured person needed to undergo surgery without anesthesia, and the child was crying in pain. In order to alleviate the child's pain, the medical staff warmly told him stories, distracted him with colored objects, and accompanied him to complete the operation successfully. Some netizens commented: "Your love is the best painkiller!" ”
Talking about his rescue feelings, Yan Zhonghui said: "Every time there is a disaster, firefighters and medical personnel always arrive at the front line quickly, and on the rescue field, everyone has long forgotten thirst, hunger, and tiredness, and only remember to race against time to save lives." ”
At the end of the live broadcast, all the guests expressed their reverence for these two professions, and the representatives of the firefighters also sent holiday wishes to all the nursing workers.
