"to make it beautiful as summer flowers, death as the quiet beauty of autumn leaves", this is a few years ago, Wang Zhigang set up the hospice care ward. But after 5 years of support, the hospice ward is dead. Reporter survey found that at present, hospice wards have been retired in major hospitals in Ji'nan.
these days, the daughter of Luo Ruiqing's daughter and his friend set up the news of the "deathbed non intubating club", fermenting in the Internet and media, and calling for the right to choose death to me. How do you leave life with dignity? The pattern of hospice care is a good choice. Behind the curtain of the hospice care unit in Ji'nan, what kind of secret is there? Apart from the economic considerations of the hospital, it is also one of the reasons that the family members of the patients do not accept the death without rescue.

in 1967. In London, Dr. Saunders established the world's first hospice care institution, St. Chris Dover hospice, not to extend the lifespan of the dying people as the purpose, and to improve the quality of life. So that the patient can leave the world peacefully and painlessly.
a number of hospitals in Ji'nan had tested hospice care wards. In 1999, the Fifth People's Hospital of Ji'nan started the project as early as 2006. In 2004, Wang Zhigang, who was the director of the Department of anesthesia at the second hospital of Shandong University, founded the hospice care unit in the hospital, and the project was stopped by the Department of anesthesia in Qilu Hospital in 2009 because of his work.
"entering the ward is like walking into your own home." Although it has been revoked for many years, the appearance of the ward has still been kept in mind by Wang Zhigang: the design of all wards is homemade, the bed is shorter than the normal bed, and it is convenient for the patients to go up and down. No one would think of it as a ward except from the corridor covered with oil paintings and flower baskets.
a 18 year old man has drawn a conclusion in the hospice ward. The little girl called Xiaoqing was very beautiful. Despite the poor health of the hospice ward, the clean one still asked to take a bath every day with the help of the nurse and spray perfume on her body after the bath. Until Xiao Qing passed away, she was neat and calm. According to her wishes, all the doctors and nurses in the ward were seeing her off with candles in their hands.
poor economic benefit
dying care ward all aborted
Hospice Care Ward, which gave many patients last warm care before dying, but they did not escape the fate of "death".
after the dying care ward of the Fifth People's Hospital and No.2 Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University in Ji'nan, the director Li Yan of the oncology department of the Qianfo Hill hospital in Shandong province applied for the establishment of a "Ning ward" with 30 open beds in 2009, and the hospice care service was carried out, and it was also closed after half a year. "Let the terminally ill patients forget the pain and death threat in their dying days, happily finish the last journey, and leave honorably and honorably." This is Wang Zhigang's definition for the hospice ward. It is also a good project accepted by the medical profession in line with the direction of modern medicine. But why is it repeatedly frustrated?
Wang Zhigang said that the establishment of a hospice care unit is mainly for the care of patients with advanced cancer. It is impossible to make a profit for the hospital, and the hospital has to give subsidies to the hospital. "Late cancer patients have spent a lot of money for early treatment. Most of them face economic difficulties, and they do not need to be treated, and they do not need to be examined. At the most, it is to reduce pain and take some analgesic narcotic drugs every day. So this ward is not possible to bring economic benefits to the hospital."
and Cao Yongfu, deputy director of the humanities medical center of Shima University, not to send relatives to the hospice care ward, but to choose meaningless treatment for the patients at all costs. In many cases, it is also the moral pressure of the people around them - whether the children are filial, and whether their families are obliged to do so. But what about the patient?
the deathed person
should leave
in a comfortable and dignified way, Wang Zhigang said, and a very important aspect of hospice care is to promote "life and death education" to help patients and their families set up a correct outlook on life and death. Because some patients are afraid of death, and their families do not accept death without rescue. They need professional psychological counseling.
Why are people afraid of death? Because all kinds of deaths we encounter are frightening. " Wang Zhigang said hospice care includes both physical and mental health as well as psychological adjustment. If life is no longer allowed, the most important thing is how to reduce the fear of death.
Cao Yongfu says that every society has its different habits and attitudes towards death, but people agree that the dying people should spend their last days in a way of comfort and dignity. A man always has an old day, and the hospice care may be a cause of spending but not seeing the results, but it is a symbol of a social civilization, and no longer a simple problem of traditional virtues.
although the hospice ward has quietly retired, Wang Zhigang is still on the way for psychological counseling and technical guidance for advanced patients. As a matter of fact, more and more people are beginning to pay attention to and receive hospice care, and today's family members often ask Wang Zhigang to provide hospice care to the home ward.
