Soft hair, falling on the white coat, very eye-catching.
Shen Jingqi grabbed the hair and put it in his pocket.
Li Baiyu was surprisingly open to contact with him.
Shen Jingqi subconsciously thought about this.
However, Li Baiyu seemed to avoid this topic.
I better observe secretly, and not bring it up proactively.
It's already past 9 in the morning, I need to continue my rounds.
In the corridor, he occasionally encountered colleagues or patients.
"Dr. Shen, good morning."
"Good morning."
Shen Jingqi responded one by one.
"Hey, handsome doctor, I want you to give me a consultation." Two girls near the nurse's station, one staring at Shen Jingqi.
"Go find your doctor. He's already here. Want me to call him for you?" Shen Jingqi glanced towards the doctors' office.
"No need, I don't want to see him. He asks the same questions all day; I can recite them."
The girl quickly waved her hand, "Just looking at you is enough, you're better-looking and my mood has improved a lot."
"Yeah," the other girl also looked at Shen Jingqi, "Does the handsome doctor have a girlfriend?"
"No comment. You should go into the ward; it's time for rounds."
"No, it's almost time for entertainment. We don't want to stay in the ward, too stuffy and boring."
Shen Jingqi noticed the words displayed above their heads:
[Sophomore student, suspended for half a year, terrified of school].
[Freshman student, suspended for a year, troubled by interpersonal relationships].
These two girls are patients of Sun Ye Senior, often peering through the window outside the doctor's office, but without any malice.
Managing such patients is usually relatively easy.
Regular rounds, several psychological sessions weekly, combined with medication, and they can be discharged in a month.
Post-discharge, medical advice is written, supportive counseling is provided, with regular check-ups.
But his two patients are relatively more complex.
Through the glass frame of room 516.
A slender girl was sitting at bed number 3.
Words flashed above her head:
[Senior student, dance major, severe depression, unable to accept imperfection, strong suicidal thoughts].
Liu Yiyi was admitted two weeks ago.
Her parents admitted her, saying her condition was serious and asked the doctors to save her.
Through a series of consultations, forms filling, and instrument checks, Liu Yiyi was diagnosed with severe depression.
However, the information above her head reminded Shen Jingqi.
During subsequent communication, in the symptoms interviews, Liu Yiyi denied having thoughts of wanting to die, and never mentioned any plans.
Such patients, relatively speaking, are more risky.
They hadn't attempted suicide before nor had any plans.
In risk level assessment, their scores wouldn't be high.
Moreover, their behavior is covert and hard to predict.
Shen Jingqi reminded Nurse Sun Jie to pay attention to all the items in the ward, and to be vigilant in various situations where Liu Yiyi is to prevent her from using some tools or in implementing suicide in certain environments.
Two weeks passed, Liu Yiyi's low mood had somewhat improved through medication, and her sleep got better.
But her suicidal thoughts hadn't disappeared.
Can't let the guard down.
Shen Jingqi called Sun Jie.
"How is Yiyi now?"
"Quite good, she slept over 7 hours last night, deep sleep over 5 hours, and didn't have nightmares. She was willing to get up this morning. Ate a bun for breakfast. Last night she also had a bowl of noodles. Her appetite is better than before. This morning, she took a walk in the common area, I accompanied her throughout."
Shen Jingqi nodded.
Liu Yiyi's depressive symptoms had some relief.
"Did she have any abnormal or risky behavior?"
"I really haven't noticed anything, this child is very quiet, rarely moves, even drinks water cautiously."
But the information above Liu Yiyi's head kept reminding Shen Jingqi!
Will she really commit suicide?
What method would she choose?
How can it be prevented?
Usually, if he hadn't seen the status information about individuals, Shen Jingqi might not overly focus on Liu Yiyi's risk situation.
But since he had seen it, he couldn't ignore it.
Given the previous consultation and tests with Liu Yiyi, she hadn't shown any suicidal intentions, the hospital couldn't monitor her.
Seeing he couldn't get more from the caregiver, Shen Jingqi nodded and pushed open the door to enter the ward.
Liu Yiyi's body turned around.
"Yiyi, how do you feel yourself today?"
"Hello Dr. Shen, I feel a bit motivated today, things I couldn't figure out before seem less important suddenly. I don't want to diet anymore, want to eat well, the food in the cafeteria is so delicious, I shouldn't starve myself."
A hint of smile appeared on Liu Yiyi's pale face.
"Yeah, yeah, listen to aunt, eat happily, sleep happily, don't think so much. You're so pretty, many people envy you, you're just troubling yourself here, it's not worth it." Sun Jie chimed in.
It's evident that Liu Yiyi and Sun Jie have a good relationship.
Monitoring Liu Yiyi through Sun Jie is undoubtedly the best way.
"Good, this is a sign of change, you're improving. By the way, anything you want to do or interested in?"
Shen Jingqi asked gently.
"I want to eat more first. After having energy, I want to practice dancing."
Liu Yiyi's face brightened up.
"This child loves to dance, dances folk dances, with such grace and expressions, so vivid, dances really well."
Sun Jie chimed in:
"When she's in a good mood, she showed me her performance videos from before. This child performed on big stages, even won awards, was preparing for dance academy. Watching her videos, I am almost addicted."
Sun Jie casually opened her phone, playing Liu Yiyi's dance video.
In the footage, Liu Yiyi wearing ethnic costume, under the spotlight, like a spirit.
Her agile body dancing nimble like a butterfly, vividly alive.
Her costume slightly different from others, showing her unique role as lead dancer.
Compared to others, her dance more dynamic, filled with a sense of fragile strength.
Hard to imagine how strong the explosive power from that fragility is.
Such a person, might really have resolute moments!
"You can perform during entertainment time. You can dance in the ward as well. Exercising more is also good for your mood."
Shen Jingqi confirmed.
For depression patients, behavioral activation is a crucial step.
But, many patients inherently lack motivation, diminished interest and pleasure, don't feel like moving at all. It's a vicious cycle.
"I just said Dr. Shen would agree, you're just dancing, not doing anything else, we all love watching."
Sun Jie said.
"Right, Yiyi, dance more, we love watching too."
Other patients in the ward chimed in.
Liu Yiyi kept smiling.
Shen Jingqi observed quietly.
"Depressive smile, perhaps Liu Yiyi is more complex than imagined, can't relax vigilance."
At this moment, Liu Yiyi looked at her phone and suddenly said to Sun Jie:
"Auntie Sun, my package arrived at the hospital station, can you help me retrieve it?"
"Sure, I'll go now and be back quickly."
Shen Jingqi followed Sun Jie out of the ward.
"Nurse Sun, all patient packages must be strictly inspected."
Generally, hospitals don't recommend patients purchase items via package delivery.
Hospital has established a boutique supermarket, the goods inside should have everything, of course, they are safe, including food and supplies, etc.
Patients can place orders at the supermarket, and there's a delivery service to send goods directly.
This eliminates the risk of purchasing unsafe goods.
"I know, I'll inspect and register it at the nurse's station, don't worry." Sun Jie assured.
