When Yun Heng woke up the next morning, he felt sore in his wrists and fingers that it was very difficult for him to even hold chopsticks.
Because his right wrist and fingers hurt, Yun Heng did not ride a shared bicycle when he went to the community hospital. Instead, he walked and massaged himself all the way.
After all, he graduated from a Chinese Medical College. Although he had only just started learning massage, Yun Heng at least knew how to knead and which acupoints to focus on. It would still be more effective than those who knew nothing and just kneaded randomly.
"Good morning, Doctor Yun."
"Good morning, Dr. Yun!"
Since starting work at West Asia Community Hospital, Yun Heng has been one of the earliest doctors to arrive every morning. Only Jiang Yanyan and Liu Hongxia from the infusion room arrive a little earlier than him. When they see Yun Heng, they greet him warmly.
"Good morning, Nurse Jiang and Nurse Liu."
Yun Heng greeted him, then entered the clinic, found a teacup, made some tea, and then sat in the clinic to continue kneading his right hand. After all, there would be patients coming later, and the condition of his fingers would affect the pulse taking.
Although there is a simulation space, Yun Heng himself is a complete newcomer and does not have much experience. If he relies solely on inspection and questioning to diagnose the disease, the probability of making mistakes will be greater.
Although the four diagnostic methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine (looking, smelling, asking and palpating) are independent and each can determine the patient's condition, they are interdependent. Unless some top doctors can reach the point of knowing the condition by looking at the patient due to their rich experience, others should try their best to combine the four methods and integrate them with each other to avoid misdiagnosis and mistreatment as much as possible.
Of course, it is possible to take the pulse with the left hand, but Yun Heng does not have that ability. He is used to using his right hand, and using his left hand will not be as accurate as using his sore right hand.
It is actually not too difficult to get started with Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis. If you memorize the theory and practice a few times, you can roughly understand the pulse condition. However, it is very difficult to master it. It is truly easy to learn but difficult to master.
"Yun Heng."
Yun Heng was clenching his hands in the clinic when Qi Yaping pushed the door open and walked in, followed by a middle-aged man in his early forties who was dressed very elegantly in a suit.
"Dean Qi!"
Yun Heng hurriedly stood up and greeted him.
"Yun Heng, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Liu Jianzhong from the West Asia Community."
Qi Yaping first introduced Yun Heng to the middle-aged man who came in with him.
"Hello, Mr. Liu."
Yun Heng greeted Liu Jianzhong, not quite understanding Qi Yaping's intention, as she didn't look like someone who came to see a doctor.
Besides, this isn't an expert appointment at a big hospital. Even if he comes to see a doctor, there's no need to ask the dean for help, right?
Qi Yaping didn't wait for Yun Heng to ask before continuing, "Yun Heng, did you know that our community hospital has a family doctor service system?"
"I have."
Yun Heng nodded.
He knew this; he had learned about it when he was still in school.
This family doctor is not a private doctor, but a new type of doctor who provides comprehensive, continuous, effective, timely and personalized health care services and care to the clients.
A family doctor, also known as a general practitioner, provides family healthcare services as their main task, and provides personalized prevention, health care, treatment, rehabilitation, health education services and guidance, so that patients can solve daily health problems and health care needs without leaving home, and receive family treatment and family rehabilitation care services.
The concept of family doctor can be said to be quite mature abroad, but it has only been proposed and implemented in China in the past two years.
At present, the family doctor system has only been implemented in some more developed areas or some provincial capital cities with concentrated populations.
The main service objects of family doctors are people with middle and high incomes, that is, those who cannot afford their own private doctors but have a decent income and want to avoid some troubles and enjoy some conveniences.
At this stage, family doctors mainly include general practitioners registered in primary medical and health institutions, including assistant general practitioners and general practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine, as well as capable township health center physicians and rural doctors.
That is to say, it is mainly at the grassroots community hospitals and township and street offices.
For example, some families in the community have elderly people with chronic diseases, or elderly people or patients with heart disease, hypertension, high blood sugar, etc. It is unrealistic for such patients to be hospitalized for a long time, and it is troublesome to check them every now and then.
In this case, if some patients have a good family background, they can find a doctor they are satisfied with in the nearest community or hospital and sign an agreement. After signing the agreement, the contracted doctor will visit the patient at a fixed time to examine the patient and provide some relevant treatment and guidance.
Theoretically speaking, medical aid stations like the West Asia Community Hospital actually provide door-to-door services, and at the same time they are also responsible for popularizing medical and health knowledge within the community. For example, at the West Asia Community Hospital, nurses go to some communities every week to distribute family planning supplies, and doctors go to some communities every now and then to provide free examinations and popularize medical knowledge.
However, door-to-door service is really unrealistic now. After all, there are only a few doctors in the community hospital. If you call and ask the doctor to come to your home, or he calls and asks the doctor to come to your home, not to mention whether the doctor is busy enough to come, there will be no one to see patients at the community hospital in an instant.
Therefore, the home visits service provided by doctors in community hospitals is actually dead in name only, and thus the family doctor contract system has the soil for survival and the environment for its birth.
