Upon entering the Hand, Microsurgery and Ankle Surgery ward of The 215th Hospital, wall-mounted QR codes immediately catch the attention of patients and families. Many take out their phones to scan. "When I was first admitted, I couldn't remember the ward environment. Later, I scanned this QR code containing detailed introductions to ward facilities and rehabilitation exercises. It's all explained clearly - just scan to learn and share with family," said patient Ms. Zhang, giving a thumbs up.

The Hand, Microsurgery and Ankle Surgery department has innovated patient education by integrating ward information and medical knowledge into multi-purpose QR codes. By scanning these codes, patients and families can access customized educational videos and materials covering:

  • Admission/discharge procedures
  • Medical insurance processes
  • Ward environment introduction
  • Fall prevention guidelines
  • Preoperative education
  • Postoperative rehabilitation exercises

The QR code materials combine text and visuals for easy understanding, effectively solving issues with traditional paper-based education such as poor retention, single-dimensional formats, and suboptimal learning outcomes.

"Though I'm elderly, I'm good with WeChat and TikTok. This QR code learning method is excellent and convenient!" smiled patient Mr. Xu.

In recent years, the department has adhered to the philosophy of "Thoughtful Service, Warm Care," continuously innovating nursing models. Building on foundational nursing practices, they've implemented multiple specialized care initiatives including:

  • Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS)
  • Pain management systems
  • Deep Vein Thrombosis prevention protocols

These efforts collectively create professional yet compassionate nursing services that truly resonate with patients.
