在中国新闻社的一篇报道中,近期发生的一起伤医事件引起了广泛的关注。温州医科大学附属第一医院的李晟医生在为患者进行门诊诊疗时,遭到一名男子持刀伤害,导致多处严重损伤。在医院的紧急救治下,李医生不幸于同日因伤势过重去世。这一事件不仅是一起悲剧,更是对医疗行业安全的一次严峻考验。
国家卫生健康委员会对此事件给予了强烈谴责,明确指出暴力伤害医务人员是严重的违法犯罪行为,不仅侵害了医务人员的合法权益,也破坏了正常的医疗服务秩序。2020年实施的《中华人民共和国基本医疗卫生与健康促进法》强调了医疗卫生人员的安全与尊严受法律保护,禁止任何形式的威胁和侵犯。
面对频发的伤医事件,有舆论呼吁增设“暴力伤医罪”等专门罪名,以加大法律对暴力伤医行为的规制力度。然而,北京大学医学人文学院医学伦理与法律系教授王岳对此提出了不同的观点。他认为,暴力伤害行为并没有区分,且在伤医事件中,行凶者在作案后往往选择自杀,这表明单纯加大刑罚力度可能难以达到预期效果。王岳指出,医患关系的和谐建立在信任的基础上,而医患纠纷往往源于这种信任的破裂。因此,从法律与伦理的双重视角出发,应更多地探讨如何通过加强医患沟通、优化医疗服务质量、提升医疗透明度等手段,从根本上改善医患关系,而不是仅仅依赖于法律的威慑作用。
同时,加强医院的安保措施也被认为是解决问题的一个方面。近年来,政府对医院安全的重视程度不断提高,通过增设监控设备、提升安保人员配备等措施,旨在为医护人员提供更加安全的工作环境。然而,王岳教授在其文章中提出,相比增加安保人员,医院更应重视提供专业心理和社会支持服务,如医务社工的角色,以缓解医患矛盾,促进和谐的医患关系。
综上所述,面对暴力伤医事件,需要从法律、伦理以及医疗服务质量等多维度出发,综合施策,通过加强法律制度建设、改善医患沟通、优化医疗环境和提升服务质量等措施,共同构建一个安全、和谐的医疗环境。

### “Violent Attacks on Healthcare Workers”: Can Legal Tools Safeguard Medical Professionals?
In a report by the Xinhua News Agency, a recent incident of violence against healthcare workers has sparked widespread concern. Dr. Li Sheng, a physician at the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, was attacked with a knife by a man during an outpatient consultation, resulting in severe injuries that led to his demise on the same day due to the severity of his injuries. This event is not only a tragedy but also a severe test of the safety of the medical profession.
The National Health Commission has strongly condemned this incident, clearly stating that violent attacks on medical staff are serious criminal offenses that not only infringe upon the legal rights and interests of medical staff but also disrupt normal medical service order. The Basic Law on Public Health and Health Promotion, implemented in 2020, underscores the protection of medical and health personnel’s safety and dignity under the law, prohibiting any form of threat or infringement.
In the face of frequent incidents of violence against healthcare workers, there has been public demand for the establishment of specific offenses such as “violent attacks on healthcare workers” to strengthen legal regulation of such violent acts. However, Professor Wang Yue from the Medical Ethics and Law Department at the School of Medical Humanities at Peking University argues for a different perspective. He believes that acts of violence do not discriminate and that in the case of attacks on medical staff, the perpetrators often choose suicide after the act, indicating that simply increasing punishment may not achieve the desired outcome. Wang Yue points out that the harmony between doctors and patients is based on trust, and medical disputes often stem from the breakdown of this trust. Therefore, from a legal and ethical perspective, it is more important to explore how to improve medical service quality, enhance transparency in medical operations, and strengthen communication between doctors and patients, rather than relying solely on legal deterrents.
Additionally, enhancing hospital security measures is also considered a way to address the issue. The government has been increasing its emphasis on hospital safety in recent years, implementing measures such as installing surveillance equipment and increasing the number of security personnel, aiming to provide a safer working environment for healthcare professionals. However, Professor Wang Yue suggests in his article that hospitals should prioritize providing professional psychological and social support services, such as the role of medical social workers, to alleviate medical-patient conflicts and promote harmonious doctor-patient relationships, rather than simply adding more security personnel.
In conclusion, in the face of violent attacks on healthcare workers, it is necessary to address the issue from multiple dimensions, including legal frameworks, ethical considerations, and medical service quality, through comprehensive measures. By strengthening legal system building, improving communication between doctors and patients, optimizing the medical environment, and enhancing service quality, we can collectively work towards creating a safe and harmonious medical environment.
