What does an accompanying therapist do?

The accompanying doctor accompanies patients in the hospital and provides services such as illness explanation, psychological counseling and life care.

The appearance of accompanying doctors is because more and more people need to go to the hospital, but many people don't have enough time and energy to accompany patients, so they need the help of accompanying doctors.

The accompanying doctor needs to have certain medical knowledge and nursing skills, as well as good communication skills and service attitude. They are mainly responsible for accompanying patients to see a doctor, understanding patients' situation, providing disease explanation and psychological consultation, helping patients receive treatment, and providing life care and other services.

Attendant is a new profession, and there is no clear entry threshold and qualification certificate at present. Most of the first-time accompanying doctors grope for their own experiences, and there is no standard for fees, which varies from person to person. The clients of accompanying doctors are mainly elderly people and people with mobility difficulties, as well as young people who feel lonely after going out to work and getting sick.
