Iv. Main tasks

1. Improving the nursing service system.

1. Optimize the layout of nursing resources. Taking into account the changes in population structure, the characteristics of disease spectrum and the needs of the people for medical and nursing services, we will improve the nursing service system covering acute diagnosis and treatment, chronic rehabilitation, stable periodic care and end-stage care. We will give full play to the leading role of high-quality nursing resources in large hospitals, rely on local tertiary hospitals with strong comprehensive strength and high level of nursing disciplines, and improve the nursing service system with clear positioning and division of labor among different medical institutions through the establishment of urban medical associations, county medical communities, and specialty alliances. Different medical institutions provide professional and standardized nursing services according to the needs of different functional positioning. Tertiary hospitals mainly provide nursing care for difficult and critical patients, strengthen the construction of nursing disciplines and personnel training; Secondary hospitals mainly provide common diseases, frequently-occurring care; Nursing homes, nursing centers, rehabilitation medical centers, hospice centers, and primary medical institutions mainly provide geriatric care, rehabilitation care, long-term care, hospice care and other services.

2. Increase the supply of nursing services. We will promote the utilization of resources in areas rich in medical resources, and transform some level I and II hospitals into nursing homes and nursing centers. Support and guide social forces to set up large-scale and chain nursing homes (stations), nursing centers, hospice centers, etc., to further stimulate market vitality. We will increase the number of beds in primary-level medical institutions providing nursing and hospice care services, encourage qualified medical institutions to develop family beds and home care services in light of actual conditions, and effectively expand the supply of geriatric care, rehabilitation care, home care and other services.
