Changhua Christian Hospital advocates the establishment of an independent medical plan, promotes the concept of palliative care, and implements hospice care services for terminally ill patients. Changhua Christian Hospital and Hospice Care Foundation jointly organized a three-day 20 1 1 "Respect for Life, Hospice Care" activity, from June 4th, 65438 to June 6th, 65438, to coincide with World Peace Day. Ruan Shunning, deputy director of Changhua County Health Bureau, Sun, Dr. Cai, and * *, well-known director and vice president of Zhang Ji, proposed to establish an independent medical plan, promote the concept of hospice palliative care, and advocate the signing of hospice palliative care IC card, so as to establish public respect for patients' medical autonomy, pay attention to the physical and mental care needs of terminally ill patients and their families, and implement hospice services for terminally ill patients.
The director pays tribute to Qiu, the late mother, who spent the last stage of her life in Zhangji hospice ward on 20 10 last year. The most difficult thing about this encounter is that it is the most difficult for mother and son to communicate and talk, pretending not to face each other, waiting for who will say "Mom, your life is coming to an end" first. Director Cao said that this state is very unhealthy, and death is not a haze, but a road to a higher realm.
The key points discussed in the "preset medical autonomy plan" include whether to use life-sustaining medical equipment, whether to need first aid at the end of life, determining the designated medical agent, the place where you want to end your life, the wishes and concerns of the parties, the willingness to choose hospice care and palliative care and organ donation, and the arrangements after death.
The contents of "advance medical instruction" include personal basic information, personal medical disposal intention (medical treatment or maintenance treatment mode for patients at the end of the period, organ donation, cardiopulmonary resuscitation or not, signature of designated medical agent and witnesses), and funeral preparation (making a will).
Ms. Yang, who has suffered from breast cancer for 7 years, after listening to the propaganda of "preset medical autonomy plan", pushed the drip stand and bravely held the microphone, telling the public fearlessly, "My life is up to me, and I am not afraid of death because I am afraid of pain." All the patients who have come and gone in the past seven years have realized that they should leave peacefully and not suffer from unnecessary medical treatment.
Dr. Cai, director of the hospice and palliative care department of Zhangji Hospital, said that if you don't listen, talk or look at life and death, death will not happen. Facing the inevitability of life and death, we should prepare for the future. The "pre-established medical autonomy plan" begins with "listening", "speaking" and "watching". Advance Care Planning (ACP) is a planned and voluntary discussion process, and all the contents of the discussion need to be recorded as "advance instructions", which can be reviewed and updated regularly according to everyone's needs. Therefore, the establishment of a pre-established medical autonomy plan can enable medical staff, patients and their families to understand each other's wishes and ideas, follow our plans and respect our choices.
Fans, take care of yourself!
