After the arrival of the "homecoming tide" during the Spring Festival, the prevention and control of rural epidemics and the guarantee of medical services have attracted much attention.

In the rural areas of Ganzi, Sichuan, the three-level health "guardians" in villages, towns and counties guard the lives and health of the people.

  Geshizha Township, Danba County, located in the mountains and valleys, has 14 villages under its jurisdiction, with a permanent population of more than 4,200 people.

In recent years, local family doctors have signed contracts to increase public awareness of basic public health, and at the same time pay attention to outpatient follow-up of key populations such as hypertension and diabetes.

(Guarantee) The reserves of medicines, and our doctors are all on duty 24/7.

Some patients can’t move, and they can’t come. For example, he has limited mobility, because our doctors are contracted family doctors. First, we will check his symptoms on the phone, and then we will bring them For medicines and the like, just go to his home, and go to his home to do these treatments according to his condition.

  As far as the hospital is concerned, it is necessary to ensure that severe patients have beds, medical treatment, and treatment for severe patients. As for the ICU beds for severe patients, our hospital currently has 8 beds, and 8 beds cannot meet the needs of patients now.

So in order to alleviate this contradiction, we now have three departments of internal medicine, external surgery, and gynecology. We require each department to have (part of) the general ward converted into an intensive care unit, and then let this general ward have the function of an intensive care unit. Let more critically ill patients have better and further treatment.

  [Explanation] In the Second People's Hospital of Kangding City located in Guzan Town, Kangding City, the reporter saw that the pharmacy has a complete range of medicines, the patients' outpatient visits and inspections are smooth, and the treatment needs of patients in the inpatient ward are basically met.

At present, the hospital has made reinforcements in terms of medical treatment capabilities, drug reserves, etc., and at the same time must spare energy to focus on key populations.
