Nineteen couples see a doctor on the same day
The hospital arranges the same ward
Fang Dengfu is the deputy director of the Department of Neurology at the First People's Hospital of Suining.
On the morning of July 12, he was going to the outpatient clinic when an old grandmother in a wheelchair was pushed in by his family.
After questioning, the old grandmother went to the doctor because of weakness in the right limb.
Cerebral infarction was considered in the initial examination in the outpatient department, and hospitalization was required.
Fang Dengfu learned from the communication with the grandmother's family that the grandmother's wife was also seeing a doctor in another outpatient clinic of the hospital that day because of dizziness and cough.
Fang Dengfu immediately contacted the colleague who treated his wife and learned that the old man had a lung infection and posterior circulation ischemia, and he also needed hospitalization.
"The grandmother's surname is Huang, she is 90 years old, and the grandfather's surname is Chen, she is 98 years old, and usually lives in the countryside." Fang Dengfu told the Chengdu Commercial Daily-Red Star News reporter, because they are two elderly people, they are old couples, for convenience The family members took care of the two elderly people together, and the hospital decided to coordinate and arrange for the elderly couple to be admitted to the same ward of the neurology department.
Three children are taken care of
The scene of the two old hospital beds facing each other is touching
What impressed Liu Lijuan, the head nurse of the neurology department of the hospital the most, was the harmony of the old couple's family.
The two elders raised two sons and one daughter together. The eldest son is 70 years old and the youngest daughter is in her 60s.
In those days, the second son and daughter stayed in the hospital to take care of them, while the eldest son was responsible for delivering three meals a day.
Liu Lijuan told the Chengdu Business Daily-Red Star News reporter that because the two elderly people are old, the medical staff are also very attentive to them.
"The impression of a family is that of harmony and harmony. Although the three children are old, they are very filial to the elderly. This is also a role model for young people." Liu Lijuan said that the two elderly people had difficulty speaking because of their advanced age. The beds are next to each other, but they rarely talk and communicate, but when the two old people lie on the beds and look at each other, the scene is very touching.
On July 26, a reporter from Chengdu Business Daily-Red Star News learned from the hospital that after careful treatment by the medical and nursing team, the elderly were discharged on the same day on July 19.
Fang Dengfu reminded that if there are elderly people in the family, family members should pay attention to preventing falls, as the risk of fractures after a fall is very high.
Long-term bed rest significantly increases the risk of infection and lower extremity venous thrombosis.
Secondly, some elderly people are reluctant to bother their family members, and they do not go to the hospital for medical treatment in time if they feel unwell, which will lead to aggravation of the disease due to delay, and the minor illness will become a serious illness. This is also the enemy of health.
The elderly often get worse quickly after the disease. Early detection, timely diagnosis, and timely treatment are very important to avoid missing the best time for treatment due to delay.
