To effectively address the risk of imported special and highly infectious diseases, strengthen the safety barrier for infection control within hospitals, and comprehensively improve the hospital's emergency response and multi-departmental collaborative capabilities, the Qiannan Prefecture People's Hospital recently organized an emergency drill for the prevention and control of hospital-acquired infections of special and highly infectious diseases. This drill was based on the severe situation of imported Ebola cases, adhered to a practical approach, and closely followed the core prevention and control principles of "early detection, early reporting, early isolation, and early treatment." All relevant departments cooperated closely and successfully completed the drill.
This drill featured seven practical scenarios: 1) screening and identification of cases during pre-screening and triage; 2) assessment and confirmation of suspected cases, hierarchical reporting, and activation of the emergency response plan; 3) multidisciplinary expert consultation; 4) specimen collection, transportation, and epidemiological investigation; 5) emergency response to occupational exposure of medical staff; 6) closed-loop transfer of suspected cases to designated hospitals; and 7) environmental disinfection and terminal disinfection effectiveness evaluation in epidemic-affected areas. During the drill, all participants performed their duties diligently and cooperated closely, completing practical exercises in key areas such as case identification, information reporting, personal protection, epidemiological investigation and tracing, closed-loop transportation, and terminal environmental disinfection. The drill comprehensively tested the feasibility and practicality of the hospital's emergency response plan, fully refined the multi-departmental collaborative response mechanism, and further solidified the foundation for emergency response to nosocomial infections of highly infectious diseases.
Following the drill, a debriefing and summary were conducted on-site. Vice President Pan Ke fully affirmed the organization and preparation of the emergency drill, the process simulation, and the on-site performance of the participants. He stated that the drill completely recreated the entire process of handling a sudden, highly infectious disease outbreak within the hospital, effectively honing the team's emergency response capabilities and strengthening the risk awareness of all staff. The responsibility for infectious disease prevention and control remains immense, and the pressure of preventing imported cases remains severe and complex.
Next, the hospital will take this exercise as an opportunity to adhere to a bottom-line mentality, establish a problem rectification log, strengthen the responsibilities of all parties in infection control, conduct regular practical drills and tabletop exercises, continuously address shortcomings and weaknesses, and build a tight and solid infection control network to fully protect the lives, health and safety of patients and medical staff.
