A hospital in Kyoto, where a nosocomial infection of a new type of coronavirus occurred, conducted a questionnaire survey with medical staff, etc., and found that about 60% of them were seriously slandered or unjustified I knew I was being treated.
Since April this year, 34 people including inpatients and nurses have been confirmed to be infected with the new coronavirus at Horikawa Hospital in Kamigyo-ku, Kyoto.
Since criticisms were sent to the hospital, a questionnaire survey was conducted with medical staff and staff to understand the actual situation.Of the 146 respondents, about 60%, 84, were serious. It turns out that he was being slandered and mistreated.
Specifically, 10 were "the family ordered them to stop working from their workplaces", 4 were "the nurses refused to keep their children", and 3 were "dismissed from another workplace." People and so on.
In addition, I received threatening calls such as "Death" and "Ignite" and received slander such as "It was the hospital's reason that the emergency declaration was not lifted." There were also cases.
This means that hospitals are strengthening counseling for medical staff and other factors, and damages such as slurs are gradually disappearing.
Masaaki Yamada, Secretary-General of Horikawa Hospital, said, “I felt that the mental damage that the staff suffered was considerable. I think that harassment of medical staff may be reduced by having the correct knowledge widely available to the public. I was talking."
"You don't have to come" Unilateral notification
A female healthcare worker working at Horikawa Hospital also works at another clinic in Kyoto City, but after the first person infected with the new coronavirus was confirmed, she received a phone call from the clinic and said, "Don't come. I was notified unilaterally."
Although the woman was not a close contact with the infected, she was shocked to see a change in her trusting relationship with a clinic where she worked for over 20 years.
“I was wondering if I would be treated this way even though I had a long relationship. I was shocked that I didn't understand it, even though I was the same healthcare worker,” he said.
In addition, he said, "I have a global inexperience and how to handle it with knowledge, so it is important for each person to deepen their knowledge and help each other."
