After 2 weeks, the coronavirus was gone.
According to Agnė Zuokienė, who volunteered for 12 days at the Klaipėda Hospital and lived there, there were a total of 35 patients at the institution. 31 of them were diagnosed with coronavirus and four were negative. A woman with metastatic breast cancer died. Of course, the woman testified: Although the patient’s coronavirus test was positive, she died of her primary disease. Another woman with coronavirus was transferred to another hospital during this period, but also due to an exacerbation of her disease.
“When it was time to take the exam in two weeks, we could hardly call who would do it.” Nobody wanted to travel here, since it is abuzz with diseases, we don’t want to risk our health. Elsewhere, I have heard that your priority right now is the Acropolis. Well, of course, it’s better to put on a show than to evaluate serious patients. Therefore, repeated tests were not as successful, after which it turned out that a negative result had already been obtained in 13 people, including one 94-year-old. We transfer them to the uninfected body, strictly separating territories, food flows, and personnel.
A negative result has already been obtained for 13 people, including one 94 years old.
Until we moved them all, we were barely alive. It was necessary to think through each step just to lose an additional unnecessary movement.
The lab came again Monday to take samples again. This is the order: a person is considered healthy if two tests in a row are negative. 12 people answered negatively and one affirmative. We return that patient to the so-called infected zone, “said A. Zuokienė.
Only six people worked for 12 days.
In the 12 days before the former staff began to return from quarantine, the hospice worked with a total of 6 people who changed shifts.
“It just came to our attention then. For example, Laimutė, who stated that she spit out the coronavirus because her mother cares more about her and will do everything in her power to help her recover. Other family members have just come to the door, handing out bags, notes, postcards.
I really understand that they did not want to enter. Others said, “We can’t do anything, so we can at least wash the floor.” And it was a great help for us: we dressed them in those Ufonauta suits and they took care of the floor.
So there were beautiful examples, and there were some, where people get a job, work with us one day, and leave without bearing the burden of work. I still remember that eight o’clock moment when the shift changes. I was here with a nurse all day, but the assistants arrived at eight in the morning and left the next day at eight in the morning.
The moment when you stand at the door and wait for people to come, because if you don’t come, death … And there were moments when you didn’t come, and you say: “Girls, I’m very sorry, but some of you have have to stay. “
The moment you stop at the door and wait for people to come, because if you don’t come, death … And there were times when you didn’t come.
There was also a case in which the nurse did not come to change in the morning. I immediately told her that I couldn’t be alone. Yes, I can inject medications and build a drip, but I don’t have an official document for that, only the education of a nursing assistant. If he had knocked on the door and gone, he would have no choice. Then perhaps we would speak from prison now, “said the interlocutor.
What does it mean to breathe through a respirator for 12 days?
When asked what coronavirus symptoms he saw, A.Zuokienė claimed that he had seen serious patients.
“It just came to our attention then. I’ve been working with oncology patients for 18 years. Among hospice patients, about half of them. I haven’t seen the coronavirus symptoms objectively, I’ve only seen severe patients for what they are. Of those 29 coronavirus patients, only four live without diapers and all the rest are bedridden. After all, what is a hospice? The last stop where patients are no longer receiving treatment is where only nursing services are provided. .
And the fact that in a facility with an average age of 78, the focus of the coronavirus has been controlled is fiction. The news is that even with a lot of effort, even a 94-year-old can be “retired”, not to mention the 80-year-old. Management measures are simply needed to ensure order.
In a way, perhaps it is good that there are so few of us workers, because there were fewer opportunities to carry out the infection. I put many sheets on the walls with instructions on what to do and what not to do, which doors cannot be opened so that the infection is not transmitted alone, “said the interlocutor.

The woman herself was screened twice for coronavirus during that time, both times with a negative response. After graduating as a volunteer and returning home, she took a third test and is now waiting for her result so that she can see her daughter.
She revealed that living for 12 days and even sleeping with protective equipment had consequences for her, due to the lack of oxygen in her body, her fingers fell in love: “They both sleep with protection and are afraid to go out on the patio without the mask” . So there was no way to breathe and breathe fresh air. “
Two days of life and even sleeping with protective equipment had its consequences: his fingers fell in love due to the lack of oxygen in the body.
The daughter of a 94-year-old grandmother decided to volunteer for her mother.
The daughter of a 94-year-old grandmother who had recovered from the coronavirus also decided to volunteer at the facility when staff had to go into quarantine, leaving only one doctor with all the grandparents.
Laimutė entered the infected area both to help and miss his mother, who he had been visiting every day until then, and on weekends he also interacted with other older people who lay there: drawing, decorating the environment, baking cakes, trying brighten up your daily life.
“When the quarantine started, I didn’t see my mother in a whole month. During that time, the girls had only taken her to the window twice. Therefore, after seeing a request for help on Facebook, I decided that I would no longer I could part with her. I said to my son, “I’m going to see my mother, so we won’t see you or your grandchildren for very long.”
I live alone at home. I am picked up and transported by volunteers. Neighbors buy food, stays and soups at the door of the building.
But when I saw all the old men after the break, I put on my glasses not because of the sweat but because of the tears that no one was looking at them. Now they lie more, because to exercise, walk with the walker, they need help. Finally, relatives used to visit them and move in with them.
And a healthy person, lying in bed for two weeks, would come out strong, and here the elderly … But now that the staff has returned, the situation has improved, the elderly are recovering, “said the interlocutor.
Laimutė, a teacher, has been a volunteer since April 18. She does her direct job in the morning and then goes to the hospice for four hours. Staying longer in special clothing is difficult. And although physically she is very tired, she assures that now she feels much stronger than before because she can see her mother. The woman assured that her mother did not experience any symptoms of coronavirus.
“Infections come and go, so I want everyone to think less about viruses.” Check, stay hygienic, wash your hands, be smart, but enjoy life.
There are many more things to think about than a coronavirus. Let’s enjoy our family, nature, birdsong. Maybe it took us so long to notice again the simple things that make up life, ”the interlocutor wanted.
