On June 16, the topic of "Nanfang Medical University teachers were punished for being late for class to save people" appeared on Weibo. At noon of the same day, Southern Medical University issued a "situation statement" to respond: the school is learning about the verification from the relevant units, and will follow up. In the afternoon of the same day, the reporter of Modern Express contacted a staff member of the publicity office of Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University. The other party said that the matter was still under investigation, and the current handling results were identified as teaching errors, belonging to the lightest level.
Online investigation notice
According to the online file "Notice on the Investigation and Treatment of Pediatric Teachers' Late Attendance in the Spring Term of 2023 Academic Year", in the morning of May 10, 2024, the Pediatrics course of 2019 clinical medicine (English teaching) class was taught by Yu Li, a pediatrician, and students reported that the bell rang but the teacher did not arrive in the classroom on time.
According to the notice, the reason why Yu Li was late for class was that before class, Yu Li arrived at the department to check the condition of the children in her charge. During this period, the child suffered from slightly dull bilateral pupillary reflex, bleeding at the place where the neck tube was placed, and suspected of cerebral hemorrhage, so emergency treatment was carried out. Yu Li failed to report to the teaching and research office in time due to emergency. After handling the emergency, she hurried back to the classroom at 8:29.
The notice showed that, according to the document Measures for Examination, Approval and Handling of Teaching Accidents (Errors) in the First Clinical School of Southern Medical University, "if the teaching time is delayed between 15 minutes and 30 minutes due to non punctuality in class (late, early leave and midway leave), it is deemed as a serious teaching accident. If a teaching accident (error) occurs due to special circumstances, it shall be handled according to the specific circumstances.
According to the notice, Yu Li's lateness in teaching was identified as a teaching error, and the result was a deduction of 2000 yuan of May bonus, a notice of criticism throughout the hospital, and the cancellation of the qualification for excellence evaluation of this year. The notice said: "The time of being late was 29 minutes, but it was not intentional to save the patient, and Miss Yu Li arrived in the classroom in time after the problem was solved, properly arranged the teaching content, and successfully completed the teaching task, without causing adverse effects."
The bulletin document aroused netizens' heated discussion: "Is life important or class important? Southern Medical University: class is most important." "Dogmatism, in the face of respecting life and protecting life, seems ridiculous, hateful and hateful."
The reporter of Modern Express did not find the document of the Measures for the Verification and Handling of Teaching Accidents (Errors) of the First Clinical School of Southern Medical University, but only found the Measures for the Verification and Handling of Undergraduate Teaching Accidents of Southern Medical University on the official website of Southern Medical University. The document shows that according to the impact on the normal teaching order, teaching activities, and the degree of damage, Teaching accidents are divided into general teaching accidents, serious teaching accidents and major teaching accidents.
There are two kinds of regulations on teachers' tardiness: teachers' tardiness without reason, early leave, missed class, and delayed examination for less than 5 minutes (inclusive) are ordinary teaching accidents; Teachers who are late, leave early or miss classes for more than 5 minutes but less than 30 minutes without reason are serious teaching accidents. As for the handling method, the person directly responsible for the teaching accident shall be educated by the person in charge of the college and the secondary unit where he/she works, and the corresponding performance of the person in charge shall be deducted when the teaching performance salary is distributed, and the person in charge shall be disqualified for the annual appraisal.
The document also mentioned that if the person responsible for the teaching accident, the insider, the informant, the verifier and other personnel think that the identification of the teaching accident is inconsistent with the facts, they can appeal to the Committee within 10 working days from the day after the announcement of the decision on the teaching accident.
The reporter of Modern Express noticed that the teaching operation module of the Academic Affairs Office on the official website of Southern Medical University showed that there was only one notice of teaching abnormalities this year. The content was: the lecture on the new progress of basic medicine in 2020 basic medicine class, and the third class of the lecturer did not arrive in the classroom, resulting in class errors. However, the specific processing results are not displayed.
Description of Southern Medical University
At noon on June 16, the WeChat public account of Southern Medical University released a "fact sheet": the school has paid attention to the network information about the teachers of the First Clinical Medical College of our school who were notified. As a medical college and its affiliated hospital, life first and priority of rescuing the wounded and dying are the values we always adhere to.

In the afternoon of the same day, the reporter of Modern Express contacted a staff member of the Publicity Office of Southern Hospital of Southern Medical University, who told the reporter that the matter was still under investigation and would be released later. The authority of Ms. Yu Li's handling is in the hospital. At present, the handling result is recognized as teaching error, which belongs to the lightest level.
When the reporter asked the staff member, what was Yu Li's attitude towards the handling result? The other side said that Miss Yu Li should be more recognized. The staff member also said that the patient himself lived in the hospital, and the treatment of the patient could be guaranteed in the absence of Miss Yu Li. Even if there is an emergency, you can call to report it.
