[Training of nursing staff in the Central Soviet Area (Fujian)].

Abstract

During the period of the Agrarian Revolutionary War, the war led to a sharp increase in the number of wounded and sick in the Central Soviet Area (Fujian) and the epidemic of infectious diseases. Therefore, the Red Army and the Soviet government needed to quickly establish a nursing team. Nursing staff are trained through various means, such as nursing schools, nursing training teams in Red Army rear hospitals, and training classes for female nurses. In order to make up for the serious shortage of nursing staff, local people were also widely mobilized to organize nursing teams to help the medical personnel of the rear hospitals to care for the wounded and sick. Among the students who graduated from the nursing school, outstanding students were selected to continue their studies in the Red Army Medical School, and gradually stepped into the medical front of the war. Some of these graduates dedicated their lives to the revolutionary cause, while others became key figures in the medical and health field of the People's Republic of China.
