Testimonial of Nurse: Where is love, there is warmth

If compare many departments of Guangzhou Fuda Cancer Hospital to Chinese Song poetry, No 5 ward district is represented the grateful and restrained school of Chinese poetry. There is not only deep sense of affection between patients and their family, but also warm care from graceful nurses and kind doctors with excellent skills.

When I came to No 5 ward district at the first time, I was happy because the wards were clean and bright and an amiable teacher introduced the environment of wards and regulations for our interns. Nowadays, I have turned to be an assistant nurse from intern nurse and could work with sisters of No 5 ward district.  

An uncle has accompanied his wife who was suffered from breast cancer to hospital intermittently. On the day of Mid Autumn Festival, I was on the duty. The aunt had gastrointestinal reaction because she had interventional therapy with chemo drugs. On the table, there was a bowl of steaming chicken soup. But she had no appetite with a little sob. On festival day, did she miss her distant children? I saw her weak side. She was usually smile and invited other patients to her ward for chatting.

At that moment, facing weak wife, uncle gave her a glass of warm water and sat with her while holding her hands and comforting her with soft words.

Seeing that, my heart warmed up immediately. We are accustomed to solemn vows between lovers. However, lovers became the most familiar strangers to each other at last. There are lots of people walking by in life journey. But we just want one man to fall in love with and stay together forever. No matter how long the future is, with someone’s company, life becomes sweet and happy. Auntie, although you were sick, you were happy because your lover stood by you.

As for sisters of ward, they are a group of spirits of love. They have a good relationship with patients. Look! Patients and medical staff just like family numbers they sat together and ate fruit with laughs while learning medical knowledge.

Besides, they work with full of enthusiasm and the never mind working hard. A sister had cervical spondylosis again for bending over to change patients’ dressing frequently. Seeing the plaster on her neck, I was worried about her. She always smiled without any complaint. Patient’s family numbers said that sister was like patient’s daughter. Before discharging from hospital, they specially took photo with her. She is so wonderful! Sister is careful and responsible to her job, which makes me admire her very much.

An auntie of No 6 ward bed, she had cervical cancer and severe systemic edema. Even turning over her body required her family numbers and medical staff‘s cooperation. For disease progressing quickly and lying in the bed for a long time, she always felt exhausted. Doctors were anxious and reminded us to help her sit up and build her muscles. 

One day, doctor and we held the patient to sit on the side of bed carefully. Doctor held her hands tightly with grave and worried expression. At that moment, time stood still. There are many complex conflicts between doctors and patients. But I know the anxiety and expectation of doctors with kind heart. Just so it shows the dignity of doctors. Don’t feel wronged because justice is in people’s hearts. Doctors should do what they should do and let it go. 

Cold Dew just passed. The Beginning of Winter is approaching. But I know that where is love, there is warmth.

How to make your Thanksgiving a little healthier

Regular exercise is one of the best things you can do for your health and to lower your cancer risk.

Thanksgiving usually isn’t considered the healthiest holiday. But making exercise apart of your holiday tradition can help you maintain a healthy weight. And, it can keep you from feeling so guilty about that slice of pumpkin pie.

 

Regular exercise is one of the best things you can do for your health and to lower your cancer risk.

 

Try exercising most days. Each week, try to complete 150 minutes of moderate activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity.

 

During the holidays, many people skip their scheduled workouts. But making exercise part of your holiday is one way to make sure you complete the recommend amount of activity.

 

We asked some of our doctors, nurses and staff members what they do to make their Thanksgiving a little healthier. Here’s what they had to say: 

 

“If I travel, I run on my own or with my family when I visit them.” – Robin Coyne, nurse supervisor

 

“We try to cook healthier versions of typical Thanksgiving meals so there is less guilt afterwards.” – Shamsha Damani, program director

 

“My wife and I compete in a Turkey Trot, a 10K race,” – Juan Lopez-Mattei, M.D., Internal Medicine

 

“Traditionally my family will gather and eat around noon at my parents’ house. A few hours later, we take a family walk for about an hour to burn the extra calories and enjoy the beautiful country scenery.” – Lori Bailey, nurse

What is the core of private hospital’s development? “Role model of the times” Xu Kecheng gives his answer.

From October 29 to 30, the Fourth Conference on Connotation Construction and Management in Conjunction with Academic Meeting on Health Economy and Culture was held at Zhanjiang grandly.

Including chairman of Health Economy Society of Guangdong Province Chen Xinwei, president of Health and Family Planning Department of Zhanjiang City Zhang Jianwen, party secretary of Guangdong Medical University affiliated Hospital Chen Chan, Service Center’s director and Special Committee’s chairman of Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Guangdong Province Xia Ping, vice party secretary of Guangdong Medical University Yang Yunbin, “Role Model of the Times”, chief president of Guangzhou Fuda Cancer Hospital Xu Kecheng, more than 500 leaders of medical industry, colleges, health departments and media from all around the country presented at this conference.

 

2016 is the first year of the 13th Five-year Plan and the first year of new health care reform. Confronted with new opportunity and challenge, how does hospital improve comprehensive strength from connotation construction? It’s a topic that can’t be avoided.

 

Host of this conference raised a question to chief president Xu Kecheng: Nowadays, what is the core of private hospital’s development? Chief president Xu Kecheng walked on the stage and delivered a speech on How Does Private Hospital Survive and Develop? He took Fuda Cancer Hospital as an example to explain from “topic and strategy”, “words and characteristic”, “integrity and charity” and “innovation and pursuit” four parts.

He said that former minister of Health Department Chen Minzhang told him to be good a man and work hard as early as in the 1990s. To be a good man meant to be moral and honest, and to work hard meant to treat patients with skills, genuine and effective medical skills. Later on, he added more explanation to those two sentences and composed it as motto of Fuda Cancer Hospital—“Professional medical skills, patients friendly services.”

In 2016, Wei Zexi’s Incident hurts private hospital’s reputation. Xu Kecheng said that what was the most missing thing of some private hospital? He thought it were morality and integrity. Wei Zexi’s Incident seemed like a man’s death of who had a fail immunotherapy at outsourced department. In fact, the incident was brought by private organization’s dishonesty.

 

Xu Kecheng thought that one core of private hospital’s development was integrity. “Our hospital is a private hospital. Without investment from the state, we must practice morality and honesty to make hospital survive and develop.” 

 

Xu Kecheng once was president of a state hospital. A decade ago, he established Guangzhou Fuda Cancer Hospital. At the first day, he told the staff that integrity was at the first place. He said that it’s not a good way to develop private hospital by advertisement. He insisted in not advertizing. It didn’t mean that advertisement was bad, but advertisement contained some false information inevitably. In fact, their patients came from 86 countries and regions all around the world. Without integrity or real skills, just good advertisement could not gain respect and recognition from patients.

 

Xu Kecheng said that a great number of patients trusted them for so many years because they were honest. In their hospital, it’s common to see patients and medical staff going out, having dinner and celebrating birthday together. But the cost of those activities was all paid by medical staff. Which made him proud most was there was no medical staff accepting patients’ money and dinner invitation these years. He also said, “most patients that treated at FUDA were serious and refused by other hospital abroad and at home. We create some little miracles with passion, conscience, skills and untiring efforts.”

 

At last, he said, “our experience tells us private hospital want to survive and develop. Mission is the premise. Strategy is the wisdom. Characteristic is the plan. Integrity is the foundation. Innovation is the brand.”

After the speech, Xu Kecheng donated all his lecture fees to Little Bees Volunteers Group of Guangdong Medical University affiliated Hospital because he was deeply touched by the good deeds that the group does for serving patients.
