Huoshenshan Hospital

Isolation and admission of patients are the key tasks in epidemic prevention and control. To ensure that all suspected and confirmed cases could be received and treated, Wuhan decided on January 23, 2020 to build an emergency hospital near Zhiyin Lake in Caidian District, following the practice of Beijing when the capital built the Xiaotangshan Hospital during its fight against SARS in 2003. Named "Huoshenshan" ("Fire God Mountain"), the new hospital was designed to treat patients suffering from novel coronavirus pneumonia.

After the decision was made and preparatory work was launched, the designers completed the site plans within five hours and delivered all design and construction drawings within 60 hours. More than 7,000 construction workers rushed to assist Wuhan. By working around the clock in three shifts and completing the tasks of communications infrastructure, land leveling, surveying and mapping, ward installation, and power construction, they were able to complete the construction in merely 10 days. On February 2, Huoshenshan Hospital was officially delivered to the medical units of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) that came earlier to assist Wuhan. 

With a total floor space of 34,000 square meters, Huoshenshan Hospital has 1,000 beds for intensive care units and general wards. It has supportive departments covering infection control, clinical laboratory, special treatment, and radiodiagnosis.

On February 3, with the approval of Xi Jinping, chairman of the Central Military Commission, 1,400 PLA medical personnel were deployed to staff the new Huoshenshan Hospital. Many of them have worked at Xiaotangshan Hospital in the fight against SARS, assisted Sierra Leone and Liberia in the fight against Ebola, and have rich experience in the treatment of infectious diseases. 

On February 4, the National Healthcare Security Administration announced to include Huoshenshan Hospital as one designated hospital of medical insurance, and the new hospital would adopt the charging standards of public hospitals. On the same day, Huoshenshan Hospital began to receive confirmed patients. On February 13, the hospital discharged the first group of cured patients.

The construction of Huoshenshan Hospital shows the "Chinese speed" at a time of urgency. During the construction of the hospital, a 24-hour live broadcast was streamed on the construction site. Every day, tens of millions of Chinese and foreign netizens voluntarily acted as "cloud supervisors" to root for the builders on the front line.

火神山醫(yī)院

隔離和收治是新冠肺炎疫情防控工作的重點(diǎn)任務(wù)。為確保疑似和確診病例“應(yīng)收盡收、應(yīng)治盡治”，2020年1月23日，武漢市決定參照2003年抗擊非典期間北京小湯山醫(yī)院模式，在武漢市蔡甸區(qū)知音湖附近建設(shè)一座專門醫(yī)院，集中收治新冠肺炎患者，命名“火神山醫(yī)院”。當(dāng)日施工籌備工作啟動后，設(shè)計(jì)人員在五小時(shí)內(nèi)完成場地平整設(shè)計(jì)圖，60小時(shí)內(nèi)交付全部設(shè)計(jì)施工圖。7000多名建設(shè)者們馳援武漢、齊心協(xié)力、日夜奮戰(zhàn)，先后完成了通信基建、土地平整、測繪定位、病房搭設(shè)和電力施工等任務(wù)，僅用10天建成了這座收治患者的“安全島”。2日2日，火神山醫(yī)院正式交付解放軍支援湖北醫(yī)療隊(duì)管理使用。火神山醫(yī)院總建筑面積近3.4萬平方米，設(shè)置床位1000張，開設(shè)重癥病區(qū)、普通病區(qū)，設(shè)置感染控制、檢驗(yàn)、特診、放射診斷等輔助科室。

2月3日，經(jīng)中央軍委主席習(xí)近平批準(zhǔn)，軍隊(duì)抽組1400名醫(yī)護(hù)人員承擔(dān)火神山醫(yī)院醫(yī)療救治任務(wù)。這些醫(yī)護(hù)人員中有不少人曾參加小湯山醫(yī)院抗擊非典任務(wù)，援助塞拉利昂、利比里亞抗擊埃博拉疫情，具有豐富的傳染病救治經(jīng)驗(yàn)。2月4日，國家醫(yī)療保障局宣布將火神山醫(yī)院納入醫(yī)保定點(diǎn)醫(yī)院，執(zhí)行公立醫(yī)院收費(fèi)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，火神山醫(yī)院正式接診新冠肺炎確診患者。2月13日，火神山醫(yī)院首批治愈患者出院。

火神山醫(yī)院的建設(shè)展現(xiàn)了穩(wěn)中有急、靜中有爭的“中國速度”。醫(yī)院建設(shè)期間，工地現(xiàn)場開設(shè)24小時(shí)直播，數(shù)千萬中外網(wǎng)絡(luò)用戶以“云監(jiān)工”形式為一線建設(shè)者點(diǎn)贊加油。
