Chapter 188: Construction of a New Health Center
"I will ask my superiors to agree to everything you say now."
After hearing the team leader's agreement, Su Jinhui felt relieved.
The residents of the island and some people living farther away know that a modern health center is being built here for the sake of their physical and mental health.
Everyone agreed, and even many ordinary people organized themselves and wanted to contribute to this construction.
They called for donations, and many ordinary people who had received kindness from Su Jinhui took the initiative to donate some money.
The new health center will be located in the center of the island. This location will become a constructive landmark of the island in the future. Su Jinhui has already made plans in her mind. The health center is positioned to lay the foundation for its future upgrade to a comprehensive hospital.
The plan includes modernizing various departments of the outpatient department, including basic examination rooms, pharmacies, small operating rooms, inpatient wards, and space to accommodate thirty beds.
The site selection takes into account the convenience of both the military district and local residents.
Su Jinhui had not yet used the boxes of jewels she had obtained by stealing from the Su family. This time, she used the wealth she had accumulated over the years to personally purchase and donate a batch of advanced medical equipment that was rare at the grassroots level in the country at that time.
Portable X-ray machines, basic biochemical analyzers, electrocardiographs, as well as relatively complete surgical instrument high-pressure sterilization equipment, neonatal incubators, etc.
These devices have greatly enhanced the diagnostic and treatment capabilities of the health center.
This move also created a precedent for the island to have relatively advanced medical equipment, making the hardware level of the health center far exceed the standards of ordinary township health centers in the same period and close to that of county-level hospitals.
After the road construction was completed, these young people volunteered to participate in the project of building a health center. Everyone also hoped that the health center could be completed as soon as possible so that more people would choose to come here for medical treatment.
Because Su Jinhui wanted to build a modern health center, the military district received special praise from its superiors.
The team leader was even more convinced that it was a good thing that he did not reject Su Jinhui, otherwise he would not have received the praise from his superiors today.
With Su Jinhui's financial support and supervision, the construction of the health center was completed efficiently and passed the acceptance inspection. And it has only been two months since then.
Now that the hospital is complete, what will it do without doctors and nurses? These two professions are the hallmarks of a successful hospital.
The military region supported some experienced military doctors and nurses as backbones. At the same time, Su Jinhui promoted the selection and training of barefoot doctors and nurses from the local area, and promised that the medicinal soap factory and the future hospital would bear part of the training costs.
Refer to the base medical and supervision experience, establish preliminary diagnosis and treatment standards and management systems, and promote the evaluation of medical treatment with clear exemption policies for metal and disadvantaged people.
As soon as this news came out, Su Jinhui's reputation in the hearts of the people reached its peak, and Su Jinhui's identity also made the superiors attach great importance to her. She is not only a living Bodhisattva of the people but also a key protected object of the top leaders.
Despite her high status, Su Jinhui still remembers her original intention and insists on spending a few days every month in the health center to see patients.
Since the establishment of the health center, a certain number of cases are still needed to accumulate the hospital's professional level and capabilities.
Especially in the outpatient department for difficult and complicated diseases and surgery, Su Jinhui is like a duck in water in these two areas. Not only has she improved the medical services at a super high level, but she has also demonstrated medical ethics and medical style through practical actions to teach grassroots medical staff.
On this day, Su Jinhui was sitting in the surgical outpatient clinic as usual.
A mother brought her child to the health center for treatment.
She had heard of Su Jinhui's name a long time ago, and she was not a native of the island, but came from somewhere else.
When it was her turn, the mother came to Su Jinhui holding her child's hand with a timid look on her face.
"Hello, Dr. Su."
Su Jinhui nodded to her, but when she noticed the child, she was shocked.
"Do you want to see the doctor or the child?"
To be on the safe side, Su Jinhui still asked a question.
The mother looked at her child sadly. "It's my child. I don't know what's wrong with her. I'm actually from mainland China. I heard there's a young, highly skilled doctor on the island, so I took a boat here. My child is twelve years old this year. Just six months ago, these little red spots suddenly appeared on her body. At first, I thought it was just a common skin disease or hives."
"The doctors at the mainland hospital I took her to said the same thing. But the allergy medication and urticaria medication they prescribed were useless and only made her condition worse. Later, I went to a more advanced hospital, and they found she had severe anemia."
"But generally, after the examination, they didn't tell me what the illness was. I'm worried that this child might have contracted some unclean disease, so I can only come to you for help."
The mother's eyes were filled with tears after she finished speaking. If her child hadn't been there, she would have cried out loud.
"Don't get excited, let me check the child's body."
The child is a little girl, twelve years old, but she looks a little malnourished and her body is very thin.
"Little boy, tell me if you feel uncomfortable anywhere."
The little girl's face was a little timid, probably because she had never seen a stranger before.
"It hurts, it hurts here."
She pointed to her leg joints, and Su Jinhui pressed them gently. The little girl cried out, "It hurts, Mom."
The mother looked at her child with a worried look on her face. "Doctor Su, this child told me a while ago that his knees seemed to be a little painful. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, thinking that he was young and playing around occasionally. Maybe he fell somewhere or got hurt."
"What worries me most are these little red spots on her body. Look, she's got them again now. She didn't have any a few days ago, and suddenly they're like this again."
"Okay, let me give the child a quick physical examination first."
Su Jinhui let the little girl lie on the hospital bed, pulled open the curtain, and gave her a full body examination.
In addition to the small red spots on her body, her knees would hurt when pressed, and the little girl was weak. For a twelve-year-old child, she seemed to weigh only about forty kilograms, which was already malnutrition.
After the examination, Su Jinhui took her to her mother and asked, "What's your name?"
"My last name is Zhang, and my name is Zhang Xiaoli. This is my child, and he also has the same last name as me, Zhang Xiaobei."
"Okay, judging by the condition of your skin, it does look a bit like hives. But you said you've tried hives medication and it didn't help, so it's possible the previous doctor misdiagnosed you. I don't know the cause yet, so I might need a blood test. Is that okay with you?"
