Honoring Our Teachers: Wuxi Haijia Hospital Visits Fengying Kindergarten to Conduct Health‑Care Activities

On the eve of Teacher’s Day, in recognition of the dedicated educators working on the front lines, Wuxi Haijia Hospital assembled a multidisciplinary team of physicians to visit Fengying Kindergarten in Wuxi, where they conducted health education sessions and provided on-site consultations, offering the school’s faculty and staff a personalized gesture of care.

Precision science communication, safeguarding health

Kindergarten teachers, who engage in high-intensity caregiving and educational work over extended periods, are a high-risk group for various occupational ailments due to vocal overuse, prolonged standing, extended periods of desk-bound activity, and significant psychological stress. In light of these occupational characteristics, the hospital has established a multidisciplinary education team composed of leading physicians from departments including preventive health care, gynecology, dermatology, and rehabilitation.

During the science‑education segment, the physicians drew on their clinical experience to provide clear, accessible insights into the common health risks faced by early‑childhood educators. Topics ranged from preventing occupational strain to caring for the throat and voice; from safeguarding women’s endocrine health and preventing gynecological conditions to addressing everyday skin concerns with evidence‑based approaches. The lectures tackled the real‑world challenges of daily work, and the doctors translated what might otherwise seem dry medical information into practical, actionable guidelines for everyday self‑care, encouraging faculty and staff to adopt a proactive “preventive before illness” approach to health.

On-site Q&A, attentive service

Following the presentation, the medical team promptly conducted on-site one‑on‑one health consultations. Addressing occupational health concerns such as cervical spine discomfort and difficulty raising the arms caused by prolonged desk work, as well as throat dryness and irritation from frequent vocal strain, the physicians listened attentively, performed thorough physical examinations, and provided individualized answers to each concern.

Rehabilitation physicians demonstrated on-site stretching exercises to relieve muscle fatigue and offered everyday physiotherapy techniques, while gynecologists and dermatologists, taking women’s physiological characteristics into account, provided scientifically grounded guidance on lifestyle management. This professional, patient‑centered care enabled faculty and staff to receive tangible, effective health support right on campus, with lively interactions and a warm, enthusiastic atmosphere.

Medicine and education go hand in hand, putting responsibility into practice.

This time, Wuxi Haijia Hospital visited Fengying Kindergarten to conduct health education and on-site consultation activities. This initiative not only extends high-quality medical resources but also serves as a vivid demonstration of the hospital’s proactive commitment to social responsibility and its care for the health of educators.

As a medical institution deeply rooted in Wuxi, Wuxi Haijia Hospital has always upheld the mission of “empowering health through precision medicine and safeguarding Wuxi with humanistic care.” Moving forward, the hospital will continue to leverage its professional strengths, regularly organize public health education and on-site consultation events, and bring higher‑quality, more convenient, and more efficient healthcare services closer to the people, thereby actively protecting the health and well‑being of the citizens of Wuxi.
