【告訴我患甚麼病可以嗎?】(長者常見疾病英文名稱)
睇醫生要錢、見律師要錢、見心理學家要錢、見營養師要錢、搵補習老師要錢、搵護士洗傷口要錢.....有時我會諗,有冇乜嘢可以唔駛錢?
或者你會話,搵政府幫手咪少啲錢!睇街症$50、專科門診首次$135(之後$80)、急症室$180、社康護士洗傷口每次$80;九個民政事務處提供免費法律諮詢計劃、社署有免費心理輔導服務等等.....
冇錯!係有以上服務,但因為僧多粥少關係,一係排好耐、一係只能提供片面服務、如果有多少少個人限制(如:行動不便)需要搵人上門就更艱難喇!
好似心理輔導,見一次臨床心理學家真係好貴!除非家庭發生慘劇,社署臨床心理學家就會有排耐心免費輔導你!(好似我以前喺院舍工作曾經收過一個緊急個案,同社署社工、臨床心理學家同醫院精神科醫生合作,跟咗伯伯同佢仔女超過一年半!)
唔好講其他,淨係講睇醫生,無論公家抑或私家,醫生只會寫英文,醫院病歷同出院記錄絕大部份都係英文!唔好話老人家,照顧者亦面對好大困難!究竟病歷寫啲乜?我父母有乜嘢病?有時覆診或出院時想問多少少,遇著一位好醫生或護士可能會答多你兩句,但更多時候你要有食貓面嘅準備!唔係因為佢哋工作實在太忙,就係唔耐煩;咁多病人,個個病人咁問法仲得了?
做咗安老服務社工逾二十年,照顧肥媽逾十四年,我諗我接觸醫護、長者同照顧者嘅機會確實比唔少人多!尤其獨居兩老長者,有時佢哋出院後我上門探訪,同佢哋解釋出院記錄、藥物種類兼服用方法、以及整理覆診紙都要花唔少心機同時間!問婆婆「醫生話妳乜嘢事?」好多時會聽到「我唔知呀!」再望返出院記錄,原來有幾種病確診咗!
為此,我花咗一啲時間,整理咗以下一份清單,係有關長者常見疾病嘅英文名稱!做咗咁耐社工、見過咁多病歷、探過咁多老人家、陪肥媽進出過咁多次醫院;唔多唔少,都會累積到唔少知識同經驗;雖然呢啲大部份係唔開心同難過嘅經驗,但我都希望能幫到大家!
抱歉嘅係,因為我唔係醫護人員,冇受過專業訓練,所以未必寫得太好,懇請見諒!還望醫護人員向我多多指教!

#PleaseShare #COVID19
#武漢肺炎防疫重點英文版
According to the WHO and Chinese officials, the incubation period of the novel corona virus between disease exposure to the onset of symptoms ranges from 2 to 12 days (7 days on average).
However,based on the general view,the incubation period of COVID-19could be up to 14 days.
Based on the current literature related toCOVID-19, the clinical expression ofCOVID-19caninclude fever, weakness, respiratory symptoms (mainly dry cough) and in some cases,breathing difficulties can follow.
About 1 to 2 percent of the patients might develop severe pneumonia, adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multiple organ failure or shock, leading to death.Most of the deceased patients had concurrent chronic disease such as diabetes, liver disease, kidney disease or cardiovascular disease.
*Prevension
There is no vaccine to prevent corona virus infections. Daily preventative steps to take include avoiding affected regions, avoiding local hospitals or clinics unless necessary, avoiding eating uncooked meat or eggs,avoiding being in contact with animals and dead animals,and maintain good health habits.
Steps to practice good health habits are as follows:
Please keep your hands clean and wash your hands with soap frequently. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizers.
However, soap and water should be used preferentially if hands are visibly dirty. You should wash your hands immediately after coughing or sneezing; after using the toilet; and if your hands touch any secretions from your respiratory tract, stool or body fluids such as urine. In addition, please refrain from touching your eyes, nose and mouth with your hands.
Pay attention to respiratory tract hygiene and cough etiquette.
a. If you have respiratory symptoms, please wear a medical-grade face mask and keep at least 1 meter away from others while talking to them.
b. If your hands touch any secretions from your respiratory tract, please wash your hands with soap and water thoroughly.
c. If you develop a cough or other respiratory symptoms, you should wear a medical face mask. When your mask is contaminated by secretions of nose or mouth, please fold it, throw it into the trash immediately, and wear a new one.
d. You should cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or handkerchief when coughing or sneezing. If you don’t have a tissue or handkerchief, cough or sneeze into your upper sleeve.
*Use of masks
a. Medical-grade face masks are mainly used for preventing the spread of disease and protect people around you. People are advised to wear medical masks when you go to see a doctor or accompany a patient; when you have symptoms of respiratory infections; and if you go out with people with weak immune systems or chronic disease. You should wash your hands frequently to protect yourself from catching illness in other situations.
b. To wear a medical mask properly, you should ensure that the water-repellent side (usually green) faces outwards. You should not remove your mask when talking, coughing or sneezing to prevent the spread of disease. You should replace your face mask if it is visibly soiled.
c. Steps to put on a medical face mask:
i. Open the package and examine if the mask is damaged.
ii. Put the elastic bands around both ears, fit the metallic strip over the nose bridge and extend the mask to cover your chin.
iii. Press firmly down on the metallic strip so that it fits around your nose
iv. Ensure that there are no gaps
d. You don’t need a face mask in open spaces, including walking on the streets or doing outdoor exercises.
*What to do while sick
If you have flu-like symptoms, including fever, headache, runny nose, sore throat, cough, muscle aches, fatigue/tiredness, and sometimes diarrhea. After your symptoms develop, you should rest, take and record your temperature regularly, drink water and eating nourishing food, observe your condition and take symptom-relieving drugs such as pain relievers/fever reducers to observe if they work.
You should rest at home for at least 24 hours after the symptoms improve.
You should seek medical attention if your fever lasts longer than 24 hours or is accompanied by other symptoms, such as purulent nasal discharge and purulent sputum, severe vomiting or shortness of breath.
You should inform the doctor of any history of travel, occupation, contact, and cluster (TOCC) when seeking medical attention.
You should follow the triage arrangement at the hospital if you have a fever to ensure efficient medical care and the health of medical personnel.
You should avoid going to school or work, attending gatherings and visiting crowded or poorly-ventilated public spaces while sick. You should avoid using public transportation to prevent the spread of disease if you need to go outside.
While staying at home, you should stay in a specific room, keep good airflow in the house, and avoid close contact with other people in your home, such as eating at the same table, kissing, hugging or sexual contact.
People living with the sick person should also pay attention to personal hygiene, wash hands frequently and refrain from touching eyes, nose and mouth with hands. Babies, children and the elderly or people with compromised immune system in the same household must keep at least 1 meter away from the sick person.
If the living environment requires disinfection, you can apply 1:100 diluted bleach (500 ppm).
That is, household chlorine bleach (a 5-6% sodium hypochlorite solution, providing 50,000–60,000ppm available chlorine) is diluted in water at 1:100 to clean object surfaces, such as doorknobs, desks and switches.
You can use disposable teaspoons (one teaspoon is about 20 cc), small Yakult bottles (one bottle is about 100 cc) and large plastic bottles (one bottle is about 1,250 cc) and follow the instructions below to make diluted bleach: �
a. Large amount: mix 100 cc of bleach (5 teaspoons or 1 small Yakult bottle) in 10 liters of water (8 large plastic bottles) and fully stir the solution before using.
b. Small amount: pour 10 cc of bleach into 1 liter of water and fully stir the solution before using.

chronic respiratory failure 在 虎紋姑娘 Facebook 的最讚貼文
未訓得著 我地黎個時事討論
查實augmentin做first line antibiotic都好合理
拎你呀媽黎試藥?
咩都唔睇就即開tazocin先叫做亂黎
當然 如果佢媽媽本身已經咁差的情況
就算最強勁的抗生素都無回天之力
如果你話種左係邊隻細菌引致肺炎 而無對症下藥
咁先叫delay treatment
一味想醫生用強效強效最強效的藥
先叫亂試藥🤔?right?

"I doubt if the daughter is really a nurse, as what she said does not make sense
A 88 years old lady with chronic respiratory failure and heart failure on LTOT for 4 years admitted for CHF and pneumonia.
Does she know the prognosis is very poor?
Does she know augmentin and azithromycin is the antibiotics of choice according to guideline for CAP?
Does she know the choice of antibiotics is judged by clinical response?
Does she know using Tazocin can mainly cover Pseudomonas but not other bugs, and is not a magic drug?
Does she know the choice of antibiotics is judged by clinical response?
Does she know antibiotics cannot treat CHF?
I hope she will not ""退休後重操故業, 再當護士"" as this will do more harm to other patients.
