But what was different from usual was that after he put down his pen, what was on the table was not the previous cases or notes. What came into view were a few big words - Application for Party Membership.

As usual, The light on the desk of Wang Jian, director of the Eighth Hepatology Department of Taiyuan Third People's Hospital , stayed on until late at night again. But what was different from usual was that after he put down his pen, what was on the table was not the previous cases or notes. What came into view were a few big words - Application for Party Membership.

Director Wang Jian, who came to work in the hospital in 1992, is 53 years old this year. The Third Municipal Hospital is not only the place where he has worked for nearly half his life, but also his home. Every patient he receives here, every colleague he gets along with, and every plant and tree in the hospital become a part of his life. "Perhaps this is one of the reasons why I hope to join the party," Director Wang Jian said with a smile. In his view, joining the party means that he can better dedicate himself to this "family" and patients and exert greater energy.

But in the eyes of colleagues and patients around him, Director Wang Jian is not only a good and dedicated doctor, but he has also been holding himself to the standards of a Communist Party member. From the first day of admission, he has been on the clinical frontline and has served as department director for eleven years. He is at work day and night. No matter how late he works every day, he has to review the day's work and make a summary of each day's work. In his limited free time, Director Wang Jian always likes to read the news or study party history. Slowly, these habits not only gave him the idea of ​​joining the party, but also made him care more about patients. He told his colleagues: The patients we treat have special characteristics. Most of them require long-term treatment and medication. Many families are under great pressure. We must pay attention to the patients' concerns and provide all-round care for them from all aspects, including financial and spiritual aspects.

The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the fierce fire refines the true gold. The epidemic broke out in Taiyuan in April. In the great test of fighting against the new coronavirus epidemic, the "retrograde" party members around them were particularly eye-catching. The party organizations showed their sincerity; they tempered their original aspirations, sharpened their will, and withstood the test in the battle against the disease. As the director of the department, while sitting at the back of the hospital, he always urged the medical staff in the department who were on the front line of fighting the epidemic to take personal protection and do his best to support them in the normal operation of the department. When he learned that his work in the hospital might be affected due to the epidemic lockdown, he immediately rushed to the hospital and stayed at his post with a simple camp bed as his companion. It was precisely after witnessing the role of a pioneer and model leader of the party members and the mission of taking root and sticking to his roots that he became more determined in his choice. Joining the Communist Party of China means choosing responsibility, sacrifice and dedication, which means making up his mind to "be ready to serve at any time." The party and the people sacrifice everything" means that we must reflect our strong party spirit with our mission and responsibility.

As a "long-term front-line work, I realized that only by joining the Communist Party of China can we further improve our political position and strengthen our business capabilities; only by joining the Communist Party of China can we feel the inspiration and education of the party; I will always respond to the party's call, I will work hard to serve patients; I hope the party can accept me as a Communist Party member, and I will have no regrets in this life.” This is what Director Wang Jian wrote in his application for joining the party. He repeatedly revised and polished this application for joining the party, and wrote down a promise, an original intention, and a lifelong pursuit step by step. There are more than a thousand words, each word is sincere and every sentence is emotional.
