On August 14, the Overseas Chinese Federation of Xiangjiang New Area in Hunan Province carefully organized 40 Lushan teenagers who lost their parents’care and needed the warmth of society to enter the Dajiaweikang Traditional Chinese Medicine Science and Technology Culture Museum, opening a warm-hearted journey that integrates the infiltration of traditional culture and health care.
In the Dajiaweikang Traditional Chinese Medicine Science and Technology Culture Museum, the children seem to step into a time corridor. From the ancient legend of Shennong tasting herbs, to the wisdom of Huangdi Neijing, to the vigorous innovation of modern Chinese medicine science and technology, a magnificent picture of Chinese medicine stretching for thousands of years is slowly unfolding in the professional explanation. Children are curious to observe all kinds of Chinese herbal medicine specimens, touch traditional pharmaceutical instruments, and their eyes shine with the light of seeking knowledge. Traditional Chinese medicine culture is no longer just a symbol in ancient books, but a touchable treasure of national wisdom, quietly sowing the seeds of cultural self-confidence in the hearts of children.
Concern is more than cultural edification. The medical team from Tat Ka Wai Hong Jiachen Hospital brought a special “health gift” to the children-professional calcium, iron and zinc testing and bone age testing. The healthcare workers patiently and meticulously checked each child and relieved their tension with warm words. These scientific assessments, like precise “growth navigators”, provide an important basis for subsequent nutritional interventions and health management, and lay a more solid foundation for children’s healthy future.
The most exciting thing for children is the process of making hand-made moxa sticks. Under the guidance of the teacher, we carefully selected moxa, carefully rolled and compacted. The tender hands may be a little clumsy, but the concentration and devotion are very touching. When the moxa sticks with their own painstaking efforts are shaped, the unique medicinal fragrance spreads out, and the children’s faces burst into a satisfied and proud smile. This is not only the first experience of traditional skills, but also a successful practice within reach, so that Chinese medicine can be integrated into memory in a friendly and interesting way.
At the end of the activity, the staff representatives of Dajiaweikang presented carefully selected books to each child. From popular science books that enlighten wisdom to literary stories that warm people’s hearts, these books carry the ardent expectations of children to broaden their horizons and pursue their dreams bravely, and encourage them to draw strength from reading and bravely write their own wonderful chapters.
The cooperation between the Overseas Chinese Federation of Xiangjiang New Area and Dajiaweikang is not only a meaningful research practice, but also a transmission of love and the sowing of hope. “Every child should be seen, loved and given the dawn of hope.” Deng Wei, chairman of the Overseas Chinese Federation of Xiangjiang New Area, said at the event, “Organizing this event is precisely in the hope that with the help of Dajiaweikang’s professional platform, these children can not only feel the charm of Chinese excellent traditional culture, but also gain real health care and social warmth.”
As an important medical force under the banner of Dajiaweikang, Jiachen Hospital has always adhered to the concept of “doctor’s benevolence”, devoted itself to social public welfare for a long time, actively organized and participated in community free clinics, health lectures, special group care and other activities, and closely combined professional medical services with warm public good deeds. It has become a solid force to protect community health and convey social care.
