Difference between North American hospitals and Chinese:
1. No triage system
2. Bathrooms offer no toilet paper.
3. Bathrooms have cold water only. If it works.
4. No soap. 😖 No hand sanitizer. No paper towels.
7. No western toilets. Only acrid smelling squat toilets.
9. Family drives the beds, take the temp, hold IV bags up in the air when the IV poles are all in use etc
11.You get all your results within the hour
12. Most times you see the specialist Doctor that same hour if you need one.
13. Hygiene with staff is 20 years behind.
14. There are no wheelchairs in the emergency department
15. They burn incense in the bathrooms.
16. You have to pay for everything before you get it. For example before you have IV or oxygen you need to buy the needle, the tourniquet band, the lines, the IV bags, the med and oxygen and mask. Then upon receipt you get the use.
18. AND NO PRIVACY AT ALL.about 8 people all group together, watchand listen to learn what’s wrong with one another
@weavers4jesus it can take some getting used to! It’s the privacy thing that usually bugs me most.
