Nurse in Fujian assaulted by former village official when administering IV drip at home, suffer from concussion.

In December 23, 2024 in Nanping City, Fujian Province, a nurse at the Longcun Health Center in Jianou City was assaulted by the former village party secretary while providing intravenous therapy to the secretary’s mother at home in mid-November. The incident resulted in the nurse suffering a concussion.

According to Ms. Ge, the nurse, who recently spoke to the “Morning News,” on November 12, she received a last-minute notice from her superiors while on her way to provide contracted services as a family doctor, instructing her to go to the former village party secretary’s home to help administer IV therapy to his mother. Upon arriving with relevant medical equipment at the former village party secretary’s home, she was assaulted by the secretary for arriving late.

Nurse Ge said that the former secretary punched her in the head, causing her to flee to a crowded area, but the secretary continued to chase after her and physically attacked her a second time, even poking her in the eye.

As Nurse Ge explained, the reason the secretary attacked her was because he had scheduled for the IV therapy service to arrive at 11:30, but she had not received any notification to arrive at that time. She questioned, “I came to help you, how could you hit me?”

Nurse Ge immediately reported the incident to the police. After a hospital diagnosis, she was found to have suffered a concussion and had to stay in the hospital for more than ten days, incurring a medical bill of over two thousand yuan.

In response to the incident, the director of the Longcun Health Center explained that Nurse Ge happened to be conducting consultations in the village when the former secretary sought assistance, so she provided the home IV therapy service. Regarding the assault on Nurse Ge, the director stated that on December 18, the two parties were still undergoing mediation at the police station.

The incident has sparked heated discussions on the internet, with many netizens vehemently condemning the violent actions of the former village party secretary. Comments such as “What kind of village party secretary acts like this, more like a village bully and black force,” and “Isn’t it ridiculous that they need to mediate at the police station? Shouldn’t intentional harm lead to immediate detention?” have been circulating online.
