In addition to health care in medical institutions and nursing education in schools, the current focus is on clinical nursing in hospitals, which mainly includes basic nursing, specialist nursing, nursing management, nursing education, nursing research and preventive health care. In addition, you can also engage in community medical care, such as nursing homes, sanatoriums, rehabilitation institutions, factories, families and so on. Persons with nursing secondary school (three years or above) education and registered nurse qualification, with more than two years of work experience, with foreign language listening and speaking ability of medical professionals, and who can pass the oral and written examinations of relevant institutions can apply for going abroad as nurses.

Third, the nurse technical title series is divided into head nurse, deputy director nurse, supervisor nurse and nurse according to the professional technical level.

The pressure of nurses

5 12 international nurses' day is coming, and the word nurse has become the focus of media and public attention. In some people's eyes, the nurse is angels in white, pure and beautiful; In some people's eyes, nurses are just junior workers engaged in simple work such as injection and medicine distribution. At the critical moment of current medical reform in China, as the largest professional group among medical practitioners, it seems a little silent.

However, we will still learn some reports about nurses from the media: Ding Aimei, head nurse of Anhui Province, died of overwork at the end of 2005, and Zhang Deli, head nurse of Chengdu Children's Hospital, resigned in tears in September 2006 due to excessive pressure and tense doctor-patient relationship; On June 5438+February, 2006, Head Nurse Chen of the North District of Suzhou Municipal Hospital committed suicide by jumping off a building due to excessive pressure. In April 2007, a nurse in Shanghai Meishan Hospital fell from the dormitory building. The cause of suicide is still stress. ...

Accompanied by this, practitioners in the industry constantly report that there is a serious shortage of nurses in China, nurses are under too much work pressure, and angels in white has lost her wings. Karoshi, depression, suicide and other things that should not be borne by angels are constantly appearing in front of us, and tragedies are still happening. If the status quo is not changed, Ding Aimei is not the first one to die of karoshi, nor will she be the last one.

On the International Nurses' Day in 2006, a slightly ridiculous article "Notice on Don't Let Nurses Exhauste" written by Run Sun, the stationmaster of China Nurse Network, caused a great sensation among nurses, with more than 6,543,800 hits and thousands of related comments. The notice is circulated among nurses, and countless nurses are eager to make it a real reality, but it seems far away ... In addition to giving them attention on Nurses' Day, society should also pay more attention to these issues in peacetime.

Shortage of nurses

In order to reduce costs and increase economic benefits, some hospitals employ contract nurses with lower monthly salary, and the formal nurses are gradually replaced by contract nurses. Other hospitals don't even need temporary nurses, and patients have to pay for nurses. The resulting problem of "black care workers" has a strong social response.

Insufficient number and low quality of nurses have become a common problem in many hospitals. The Chinese Nursing Association revealed at the end of last year that there was a serious shortage of nurses in China, which even failed to meet the equipment standards 26 years ago. The number of nurses per 1,000 population in China ranks third from the bottom in the world. According to the survey of more than 400 hospitals in China by the Ministry of Health, in some hospitals, day nurses are responsible for 15-20 patients on average, and nurses on public holidays, holidays and night shifts are responsible for 40-45 patients on average.

Compared with the past, today's patients have a large amount of treatment, many treatment methods, and often high requirements, but even the standard of nurse allocation when the amount of care was low 26 years ago has not been reached. This contrast is really surprising.

Nurses serve patients. If patients add nurses but don't, it means that the service they get is diluted. Nowadays, more patients and fewer nurses mean less and less services. What nurses should provide is not a general service, but a part of medical treatment. The nurse's service to patients is very professional; Some ailments and patients' reactions can only be detected by professionally trained nurses, but not by family members and nurses.

A serious shortage of nurses is likely to delay treatment and even lead to a big mistake. From this perspective, the shortage of nurses is not only a shortage of services, but also a hidden danger of medical quality.

Characteristics of nurses 2 Nurses have six characteristics. How much do you have?

"Feature 1": Running around without losing the fun of work.

We have been busy running since the day we joined the work. I rushed to the hospital exhausted in the morning, and then rushed to various nursing jobs in the hospital, and then dragged my tired body home after work. Even if our speed is getting faster and faster, there is no time to see the scenery on the roadside. Every day in the hospital, we are very happy with different people and different things.

It is good for colleagues to have a small dinner in the department and eat together; The sudden praise from patients and their families turned out to be so comfortable and happy; A tense and busy rescue was successful, and it turned out that generate would be luckier and happier inside. Thank goodness, we succeeded.

Think carefully, are you busy running around this year, but we never lack the happiness of work.

"Feature 2": Disappointed, but dare to choose.

Perhaps many young nurses are engaged in nursing not because of their own wishes, but because of helplessness, because their parents have embarked on this road. After contact with them, I often find that they are very upset and unwilling to accept the job of nursing. The hardship, tiredness and low salary of nursing work are the reasons why they choose to escape.

In fact, many nurses choose to leave their nursing posts and choose other jobs they like, and many have succeeded.

Everyone has different choices. Maybe everyone has a job for her. But most of them still stick to their posts and continue to pay for the nursing cause.

Persistence depends on your choice. Only what suits you best is the best choice.

"Feature 3": Complain, but keep your life in your heart.

In the hospital, I often hear many nurses have some small complaints in their hearts:

That patient is really annoying. He always said that my injection hurts more than others.

That family member is really unreasonable and wants to quarrel with her;

I knew it. Like me, will she report to the head nurse?

It is believed that many nurses have similar complaints at work. But when the patient's life was threatened, all the complaints were immediately forgotten! Quick disposal, timely medication, careful nursing, mutual assistance between doctors and nurses, and efforts to protect lives.

"Complaining" is actually the "self" at work. When life is threatened, the "self" in our hearts will occupy a dominant position.

Did you occasionally complain at work today?

"Feature 4": Be afraid, but don't make the mistake worse.

In the process of growing up, every nurse will always experience some work mistakes or nursing mistakes, which are our inevitable topics, and young nurses grow up in these mistakes.

In clinic, when we make mistakes in our work, we often blame ourselves, although we are afraid that the head nurse will scold us if she knows.

In fact, many times, you will not be scolded for your mistakes, on the contrary, you will be mentioned by "people who have experienced it." I will be more careful and vigilant in the future, and I will never make the same mistake again next time.

"Feature 5": poor, but still insisting.

I don't know why, the nurses and sisters around me can hear them say that they have no money this month.

But as a male nurse, I feel that there is nothing to spend for a month. Maybe I'm single.

However, even if the shouting is fierce, there are still many people who insist, from young people to old people, from girls to aunts. Even if the salary does not match the effort, there are still many people who insist.

This is not necessarily a compromise on life, but perhaps a respect for the profession.

Poverty is really the distress of female nurses.

"Feature 6": the "physique" of scum and the heart of top students.

At the beginning of each year, when the hospital takes the "three basics" exam, nurses in various hospitals begin to get nervous. Some people complain that the "three basics" exam is useless and divorced from clinical practice. Others complain that every exam is during my break, and I am too busy to read and review every day. ......

Complaining is complaining, but as the exam approaches, no one dares to neglect it. No matter how busy they are, they will hold the "three basics" in their hands and review carefully when the exam approaches.

Our constitution is very poor, but we are eager to have a top-notch heart. During the exam, nothing matters. Everyone has only one purpose: to pass 80 points.

This is the "characteristic" of our clinical nurses. What other "characteristics" do you think nurses have in common?
