May 19th
World Family Doctor Day
A letter to family doctors across the city:
To all of you who are working hard at the grassroots level,
With great respect and holiday greetings!
Dear Family Doctor Friends,
In the sunny and flowery May, we ushered in the 14th "May 19 World Family Doctor Day". The Beijing Municipal Health Commission would like to extend its high respect and holiday greetings to the grassroots medical workers who have been working hard at the grassroots level for a long time, represented by family doctors! A heartfelt thank you to your family and friends who have quietly supported you!
Health is no trivial matter, and the branches and leaves are always related. Over the years, the city's grassroots medical staff, represented by family doctors, have provided warm and intimate medical and health services for every resident with noble medical ethics, high-quality service and selfless dedication. Regardless of wind and rain, cold or summer, always stick to their posts to relieve the pain of residents; Patiently listen to the demands of each patient, give them help and care; With professional knowledge and responsibility, we provide residents with continuous, comprehensive and convenient basic medical and health services. The majority of grassroots medical personnel have proved themselves worthy of the glorious title of "health gatekeeper" with practical actions! You've done a great job!
The future is bright and there is a lot to be done. Primary medical and health institutions are the "intersection point" of the three national strategies of building a healthy China, comprehensively promoting rural revitalization, and actively responding to the aging of the population. The Beijing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government attach great importance to the work of primary health care, and in recent years have introduced a series of policies and measures to vigorously promote the reform and development of primary health care. The vast number of family doctors shine on the deep soil and broad stage of primary medical and health institutions, and make great achievements before fulfilling the sacred duty and mission of "health gatekeepers".
Things that benefit the people will be prosperous. It is hoped that the majority of grassroots medical staff will be confident, down-to-earth, and promising, and make every effort to practice the publicity theme of "scientific weight control, healthy and long-term companionship", win the trust and recognition of residents with high-quality and warm services and scientific and appropriate health guidance, and join hands with all sectors of society to jointly write a new chapter in the high-quality development of the capital's grassroots health undertakings!
I wish the city's family doctors and their families good health! Works well! Family happiness!
Beijing Municipal Health Commission, May 19, 2024
