: Originally, our hospital only had a pediatric surgery department, and at that time it only performed some low-level surgeries.

Through the trusteeship in the past few years, our hospital has made great progress as a whole.

From a personal perspective, I have been studying with some experts in Beijing for a long time, and now I have completed some third- and fourth-level difficult surgeries independently without any big problems.

  However, trusteeship is not only about bringing advanced medical technology, but more importantly, it is about improving the level of local medical staff. Through ward rounds, clinical guidance, and disease discussions, Beijing experts have established a step-by-step teaching model in Baoding Hospital.

What is the essence of this trusteeship?

It's a mentoring thing.

What is being passed on?

We brought over the Children’s Hospital’s superb medical technology and some management concepts.

While hosting, we hope to turn blood transfusion into hematopoiesis.

Since being put into operation, a total of more than 33,000 trains have been operated, with a daily passenger volume of 5,800. Around 1.26 million commuters were served.

Passenger Mr. Luo:

(In the past) two hours was common, and during rush hours after work, there were almost no seats available.

(Now) When the train is fast, it takes more than 40 minutes to get home. If there is a slight traffic jam, I can get home within an hour. When I get home, I can cook and do some parent-child activities with my children, which is also a happy thing.

Passenger Ms. Li:

It is very convenient. From the door of the community to the place of work, there is no need to transfer in between.

  At present, customized express buses have successively opened 7 main lines and 33 branch lines from Hebei and Tianjin to various areas in Beijing. The number of operating vehicles has increased from 16 in the initial stage to 72, with about 150 daily departures, easing the problem of traveling around Beijing. Commuters entering and exiting Beijing during morning and evening peak hours face problems such as inconvenient transportation, long time, and high cost, which effectively improves the efficiency of commuting around Beijing.

There are more than 200,000 people commuting to Beijing every day from the Beijing-ring area, especially Beisan County.

  The reporter learned from the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission that in the next step, the opened lines will be further optimized to increase coverage and frequency. At the same time, more lines will be gradually opened in accordance with the mature principle of opening one line at a time.
