They have increased clinics, dispatched more medical staff, flexibly scheduled shifts, optimized medical procedures, increased drug reserves, and extended outpatient hours. A number of measures have effectively alleviated problems such as patient congestion and long waiting times, and made every effort to ensure that every child can receive the fastest and most effective treatment.

Ms. Liu, a resident who came for treatment with her children, said: "We have been receiving treatment here for a week. Blood drawing, infusion, and aerosol treatment are very convenient. It is not like having to queue for eight or nine hours after registration in a tertiary hospital." Yongwai Community Health Service Center has added a pediatric clinic with full-time doctors to treat pediatric patients.

After evaluation, children over 6 years old can be given priority for infusion.
Previously, in order to improve the center's medical staff's ability to diagnose and treat pediatric patients, all members of the center were trained on the "Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Mycoplasma Pneumonia in Children (2023)" and sent nurses to second- and third-level hospitals to learn pediatric nursing techniques. In order to alleviate the problem of "difficulty in accessing pediatric medical services and long distances for pediatric medical services", the Dongzhimen Community Health Service Center has also opened pediatric outpatient services. The attending physician, Li Ye, is good at treating children’s digestive and respiratory diseases using acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, ear point pressure pills, and pediatric massage. The current pediatric outpatient clinic hours are every Tuesday and Wednesday morning, and the center also provides intramuscular injection and infusion services for children's takeaway medicines.
