GLOBALink | Xinjiang nurse dances to express gratitude to colleagues from N. China after training

BEIJING, April 21 (Xinhua) -- A nurse from Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, northwest China, has performed folk dance for colleagues at a hospital in north China's Hebei Province to express her gratitude for their assistance in medical training.

Medical workers from the Qian'an People's Hospital in Hebei last year visited Xinjiang's Qiemo County, located in the southern rim of the Taklimakan Desert, to provide support for a difficult coronary interventional procedure. Local staff were untrained to carry out it by themselves.

Raziyem Emin, a nurse based at Qiemo County People's Hospital in Xinjiang, was sent to the Qian'an People's Hospital to further her training on the procedure and related skills.

As she wrapped up her month-long training in Hebei recently, Raziyem Emin performed a traditional Xinjiang dance for her colleagues to express her gratitude.
