Wan Jun, head of the hospital, said as the first temporary hospital put into use, Wuchang makeshift hospital faced many difficulties at first. It lacked logistical support, understanding and trust from patients and management experience.

The medical teams took two to three days to carry out treatment and stabilize the mood of patients and successfully reversed the unfavorable situation. On Feb 11, the hospital discharged 28 patients, who were also the first batch of discharged patients in the city.

Wan said since then, the hospital had patients discharged almost every day, assuaging the concerns of patients and greatly encouraging the medical staff in fighting the epidemic.

The hospital also established an expert group to strengthen supervision and patrol patients' rooms. It was equipped with complete blood testing, computed tomography and nucleic acid devices and used traditional Chinese medicine and 5G remote diagnosis technologies, as well as medical robots, to support treatment.

It also organized national expert teams to offer psychological counseling for patients and held activities to keep patients entertained, Wan said, adding these management measures achieved good results and were quickly adopted by other mobile hospitals.
