Du Liqun (L) speaks with nurses at the Fourth People's Hospital in Nanning, capital of south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Sept. 18, 2017. Du Liqun is a nursing supervisor of AIDS department in the fourth people's hospital of Nanning. She has been stuck to her post ever since the AIDS department was founded in 2005. Apart from management works including the department's regulation making, recruitment and staff training, her major work is to take care of AIDS patients. Over the past years the number of patients she ever nursed exceeds 10,000. In 2015, she was awarded the Florence Nightingale Medal for outstanding contributions to health care. During her long-term medical practice, Du believes that a complete medical service system is indispensable to basic social security. In her spare time, she often provides free diagnosis for people in communities, raising their awareness of health. As a member of the 13th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), Du is dedicated to promotion of the primary medical service. She came to this year's CPPCC with a motion to improve medical staff's comprehensive ability of treating infectious diseases. (Xinhua/Lu Bo'an)
