With the adjustment of epidemic prevention policies in various places, although normal life has gradually returned, the number of infected people is increasing. Behind this seemingly calm and public expectation, there is also an undercurrent.

Hospital is an important link in epidemic prevention and control for three years. When the epidemic struck, the hospital was definitely the first to be affected, and the hospital was the last to close down. In this way, it is inevitable that medical staff will be infected and medical resources will be exhausted.

Faced with this situation, some medical staff expressed great concern: in addition to patients in fever clinics and general clinics, there are many patients with other diseases, such as patients with low immunity during tumor chemotherapy, patients with severe surgical trauma, and patients with immune diseases. If the attending doctor is infected, it may spread to other medical staff or sick patients when he returns to the ward, thus triggering a major hospital-acquired incident, which is likely to endanger the lives of other patients. How to investigate the responsibility in the whole process?

As medical staff, many people are not afraid of their own infection, but worry that their careless infection will lead to hospital-acquired events and put patients with other diseases at risk. At the same time, I am also worried that if there is a large area of infection, who will maintain the normal operation of the hospital?

The shortage of medical staff is an indisputable fact, especially after the epidemic.

At present, with the increasing call for liberalization, local policies have been adjusted accordingly. As a hospital that has been in the center of the epidemic vortex, how to minimize the impact is a difficult problem that we urgently need to solve!

In view of this situation, some insiders suggest that graded diagnosis and treatment can be carried out.

Why do you say that?

At the beginning of the epidemic, Wuhan included community health centers in the scope of treatment, and the practices of home isolation, centralized isolation, receiving hospitals and designated hospitals during the normalization prevention and control period all reflected this idea. With the further adjustment of epidemic prevention policy, it is urgent to introduce graded diagnosis and treatment measures to adapt to the current situation in COVID-19.

But at present, the introduction of relevant policies will take some time.

At present, what we can do is to be the first person responsible for our own health, and both patients and medical staff need to be protected.

In addition, the hospital should also take good management measures and organize its own medical staff to carry out nucleic acid or antigen testing according to the needs of the work.

For medical staff with fever, respiratory symptoms, etc. , you can first carry out antigen testing, and arrange medical staff to work in the corresponding diagnosis and treatment area or conduct health monitoring at home according to their health status and test results.

Hospitals also need to put caring medical staff in place and dynamically adjust the grouping of medical staff, the allocation of medical forces and the arrangement of work shifts. Scientific protective measures should be taken to minimize the exposure of medical personnel and ensure the safety of medical personnel.
