The Traditional Chinese Medicine Prevention and Health Care Center of Yantai Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine visited the Sixth Military Retirement Home of Yantai to hold a special activity for Women's Day on March 8th.
In the spring of March, everything comes back to life. On the occasion of the International Women's Day on March 8th, to promote the traditional Chinese medicine culture and carry forward the glorious tradition of supporting the military and caring for veterans, on the morning of March 5th, the medical staff of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Prevention and Health Care Center of Yantai Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital went to the Sixth Military Retirement Home in Yantai City. Together with the veteran leaders, they jointly carried out the "Spring Warmth of Medicine Garden, Enjoying Military Retirement" theme activity, using the traditional Chinese medicine culture as a bond, celebrating the festival together and spreading warmth.

At the event site, Liu Weichao, the deputy director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Prevention and Health Care Center of Yantai Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, first gave the veteran leaders of the military retirement home a wonderful lecture on "Ancient Charm of Fragrant Bags, Flowing for a Thousand Years", introducing the past and present of fragrant bags and explaining the health care knowledge of fragrant bags from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine. The veteran leaders warmly welcomed this.
Then, the medical staff worked together with the veteran leaders to make traditional Chinese medicine fragrant bags. The veteran leaders chose the color and formula of the fragrant bags according to their own preferences and ground and filled the bags themselves, experiencing the process of making fragrant bags. The fragrant bags contained Chinese medicinal materials such as mugwort, cloves, patchouli, and mint. They not only had the functions of fragrant deodorization and promoting digestion, but also carried the profound essence of traditional Chinese medicine culture. Everyone learned about the Chinese medicinal materials while exchanging knowledge on health preservation and care, and the scene was filled with laughter and joy.
"This fragrant bag is not only beautiful but also has health benefits. It's really very practical!" One veteran leader held the fragrant bag he made by himself and couldn't put it down, with a happy smile on his face.
Wang Xinping, the director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Prevention and Health Care Service Center of Yantai Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, stated that the center will continue to leverage its unique advantages in traditional Chinese medicine to carry out various health service activities, providing more people with health and care. At the same time, it will further promote the fine tradition of supporting the military and caring for veterans, contributing to the construction of a harmonious society.
Spring is warm in the medical world, and sachets convey sentiments. On this special day, the Traditional Chinese Medicine Prevention and Health Care Service Center of Yantai Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the veteran cadres of the military retirement home spent a warm and meaningful March 8th Women's Day together.
