Since the first nurse practitioner of a long-distance photo agency in Taiwan Province Province was infected with COVID-19 at the end of March, all counties and cities have ordered the prohibition of long-distance photo agency visits, and the Central Epidemic Command Center also issued a ban in early April, prohibiting hospital visits except in emergencies, but there are still families who can't even see their mothers for the last time.
According to an interview with the Central News Agency, Xiao Wu has a close relationship with her 94-year-old mother. She lives in a nursing center because of her old age, but her children visit her every day and take her out for an outing on holidays. However, with the lifting of the ban, Xiao Wu's family was restricted from visiting. "Although you can video, it often ends because my mother is hard of hearing. 」
Xiao Wu said he couldn't visit, so he didn't know his mother's physical condition. He is always depressed. As a result, one day he received bad news and called to say that his mother had a high fever and had to be sent to the hospital at once. When Xiao Wu's mother checked, she found that she had symptoms of respiratory distress, probably pneumonia. The hospital informed her of the examination according to the regulations, and her family still could not visit her for several days while waiting for the results.
After the results of the second negative collection came out, I was finally able to visit my mother in the intensive care unit, but at this time her condition was similar to semi-coma. "The rules for visiting patients in the intensive care unit are very strict, half an hour a day, and the upper limit is two people. My mother saw that none of her family could speak very well and could only make a weak voice. My mother died less than a week after she was hospitalized. Even though Xiao Wu's family had made psychological preparations, they didn't even see each other at the hospital.
Xiao Wu said that she felt very sad at the thought of her mother leaving her family. He said that because only two people can visit him every day, once he failed to go in, his mother called his name and asked, "where is my son?" This process was recorded and became a comfort in his heart.

He thinks that the deterioration of his mother's health may be related to their inability to visit the nursing home, and points out that another family member he knew in the nursing home recently reopened and went in to visit. The mother of that family actually said, "Are you going to leave me in a nursing home, not me?" Xiao Wu said regretfully: "We are all victims of the epidemic. 」
Conditional open visit from May 1.
Recently, the Central Epidemic Command Center announced that, considering the slow epidemic situation and the people's demand for visits, it is conditional to open family members to visit long-term institutions from May 1 day, but in order to prevent the epidemic, the following rules must still be observed!
1. Visits are managed by appointment, and visitors' personal data, health statements and travel records are managed by real-name login. Each resident is allowed to visit 1 time within 1 day, and the maximum number of visitors in the same visiting space at the same time is 1 group, and the maximum number of visitors in each group is 3 (including children), and they must always wear masks.
2. People who are at risk of contracting COVID-19 virus or have suspected symptoms such as fever, respiratory symptoms and abnormal taste and smell are prohibited from entering the institution.
3. Residents who can get out of bed should try to arrange meetings in public areas; For residents who can't get out of bed, their families can visit the residents' homes. In principle, only 65,438+0 residents are allowed to visit each house at a time.
However, each county and city still has different regulations. For example, Hou Youyi, the mayor of Xinbei, stressed that stricter standards will be adopted than those of the central government, and the principle of "limiting the number of people, time, place and age" will be adopted, and one group of two family members will be limited at a time. Children can't visit unless it is a postpartum nursing home; As for bedridden people, each room is limited to one group, 1 person, and each visit lasts for 30 minutes. It is stipulated to wear a mask and keep a social distance.

It's a pity that Xiao can't see her mother for the last time, and other family members are also looking forward to opening visits as soon as possible. However, the elderly are at high risk of infection, and many people suffer from chronic diseases. Opening it rashly may bring danger to the elders. The current situation caused by the ban on visits under the epidemic situation makes people feel helpless and worried.
