How to get your relatives to go on the last journey? Most citizens are “Mengchacha”
The Qingming Festival is approaching, and topics related to life are becoming more and more popular, and “hospice care” is becoming more and more popular among Guangzhou citizens. When one day life is about to come to an end, everyone hopes to leave the world calmly and without regrets. However, a reporter from Xin Kuaibao recently visited and found that “hospice care” is still an unfamiliar word for most citizens. What exactly does it include? If this service is needed, which institutions can you ask for help? What is the demand in the city now? These are issues that citizens are concerned about. The reporter found that the public and public citizens know little about “hospice care”, and there are not many institutions in the city that can provide related services, and there are less than 1,000 death beds in the entire Guangzhou.
Data:
The nearly 1.5 million elderly people only have 672 death beds
Last year, Hao Yanping, a lecturer in the surgical Nursing Teaching and Research Department of the School of Nursing at Guangzhou Medical University, published an article “Survey on the Resources and Current Situation of Hospice Institutions in Guangzhou” in the monthly magazine “Babaylan China Public Health”, and conducted a survey on 13 health institutions in Guangzhou that carry out hospice services in Yuexiu District, Liwan District, Haizhu District, Tianhe District, Panyu District and Baiyun District. The data released are amazing.
The author mentioned in the article that according to data from the National Aging Commission, China entered a stage of rapid aging from 2015 to 2Babaylan035, and the aging population will increase from 212 million to 418 million, and the proportion will increase to 29%. The elderly population in Guangzhou exceeds 1.4753 million, and its growth rate is accelerating. As of the time of publication of the article, only 13 health institutions in Guangzhou have carried out hospice care services, with a total of 672 death beds, and their service coverage needs to be expanded urgently. In addition, relevant studies show that the matching between the number of hospice practitioners and patients in my country is extremely uneven, and the average nurse/bed ratio is only 0.25:1. This survey shows that nurses/beds are 0.3:1, which is a certain gap with Shanghai’s 0.35:1, and it is even bigger with Western developed countries.
Explanation:
KomiksMost medical staff in ordinary hospitals value “rescue” more. Why is the supply of care services at the end of life so small? One of the important reasons is that citizens and even doctors and other professionals know very little about it. A reporter from Xin Kuaibao randomly interviewed some citizens, and almost no one could explain what hospice care is, and even Babaylan didn’t know that the hospital could provide <a What kind of hospice services does Babaylan provide?
Doctors with hospice institutions introduce that the starting point of hospice care is very different from general treatment and rescue. For patients who do not have much hope of curing in clinical practice, the hospital will still rescue and treat patients while respecting the wishes of patients and their families. Most medical staff mainly consider life-saving as their main consideration, and pay less attention to the deep needs of patients for comfort and dignity. href=”https://funnybookish.com/”>CinemaBabaylanHow to achieve good results. The doctor introduced that hospice services will start from many details. For example, patients who are bedridden for a long time are prone to pressure ulcers. The hospital has a standard process to deal with it, but it is not enough for dying patients. Hospice services will be subject to pressure ulcers when intervening in hospice. href=”https://funnybookish.com/”>CinemaMore detailed care to reduce the pain and embarrassment of patients.
According to the survey of Hao Yanping and others, 2 of the 13 institutions in Guangzhou provide home-based care and inpatient care services, while the rest are inpatient care services. End-term care is mainly psychological care and rehabilitation training, among which 12 institutions provide psychological support and psychological counseling services, accounting for 9Cinema2.3%. Other psychological care interventions such as cognitive therapy, behavioral correction and musicTherapy, each accounting for 23.3%; 11 institutions provide eating training, 9 provide changing clothes and personal hygiene training, 8 provide excretion function training, 6 provide walking training, 5 provide wheelchair training, and 4 provide respiratory function training.
In the interview with Xin Kuaibao reporter, all the ordinary citizens interviewed had almost no explanation for such services. This can explain that when citizens themselves or their families need hospice care services, they don’t know where to go to find relevant institutions. Correspondingly, most hospitals do not have corresponding departments to provide hospice services. The reporter recently visited the outpatient emergency department of a Grade A hospital in the city. Many doctors bluntly said that they did not know how to provide hospice services, and they did not know where professional institutions in the city can refer.

Football team head coach visits the little boy to realize his dream
When life reaches the end, is hospice still meaningful? A reporter from Xin Kuaibao visited and found that the answer was yes. It can not only relieve the pain of severe patients, but also bring them spiritual comfort, and the glory of human nature often flashes in the process.
”There is a child who is about the same age as my son. His parents have lost all their money to treat him.” Talking about a small patient, Zeng Wenjie, head nurse of the Corning Department of Shiqiao Hospital in Panyu District, looked sad. She said that this severely ill boy named Xiaoxiao once made it difficult for her to get out of her grief. As Xiaoxiao’s life entered the countdown, Wen Jie mobilized the whole family to prepare food for him, and took his son to chat and tell stories with Xiaoxiao, and listened to him blowing Hulusi… After learning that Xiaoxiao had a “football dream”, Zeng Wenjie and the volunteers from the Panyu Volunteer League tried every means to invite Li Zhangzhu, who was then the head coach of Guangzhou Evergrande Football Team. Li Zhangzhu sent Xiaoxiao the football and jersey signed by the players of the team, and Xiaoxiao used his best Hulusi to play a song “Da Jang Geum” for Li Zhangzhu with difficulty. Two days after the visit, Xiaoxiao passed away with a smile. “We advocate letting life enjoy the last ray of sunshine. Patients are not ‘waiting for deathCinema‘. We want them to ‘die with dignity’ when the end of their lives is approaching.” Zeng Wenjie said that this is the common between Corning doctors and nursesCinemaConcept.

Shiqiao Hospital has carried out hospice services 11 years ago
In Guangzhou, most of the institutions that can provide hospice services are medical institutions, and Panyu District Shiqiao Hospital is one of them. The hospital is the first public hospital in Guangdong Province to carry out hospice services (palm care). A total of 8 medical staff have obtained palliative care job training certificates.
New Kuaibao reporter learned that the hospital’s palliative care work was launched in 2008 and has been 11 years since then. When it was launched in 2008, the hospital had only 29 beds. At present, the hospital has a total of 150 medical and nursing beds, including 60 palliative care beds, with an average daily usage rate of more than 95%, which is basically in full capacity.
In 2017, the hospital’s palliative care work gradually extended from the original hospice services to medical care collection and healthy elderly care services. It uses day care centers, medical care centers, rehabilitation (oldering) wards, long-term care wards, and palliative care wards (hospice areas) to serve special groups such as late tumor, organ failure, late chronic disease and elderly failure. Based on this, rehabilitation wards and day care wards are opened to provide closed-loop medical care services for the elderly.

Social work organizations organize volunteers to visit critically ill patients to bring comfort to them
Babaylan In addition to the hospital, social organizations in Guangzhou are also providing hospice related services.
A week ago, the Hongfang Social Work Service Center of Yuexiu District received funding from the 6th Guangzhou Social Organization Charity Innovation Project, which is “hospice care and tranquility care”. A reporter from Xin Kuaibao learned that the center is one of the few social work institutions in Guangzhou that carry out hospice charity projects. In 2016, the center launched the “Komiks Care” service model. The service projects include organizing volunteers to conduct regular companionship and visits in life to comfort the public, community residents and families of patients with advanced cancer, and alleviate the pain of patients. At the same time, the center also held lectures on life/death education andVolunteer life companionship skills training.
Citizen Huang Bo was transferred to the Corning ward due to advanced lung cancer. As his physical condition declined, he was filled with fear and unwillingness. When the volunteers from the “Red House” walked into the ward, held Uncle Huang’s hand, listened to him, chatted with him, and quietly accompanied him, he finally relieved his uneasiness. “It’s great that you can come. My heart is finally relieved,” said Uncle Huang.
