Ji Tianlu came to the office with dark circles under his eyes.
He had a lot of work every day, and he had to pay attention to the expansion of the ward area, which made it even harder.
However, Ji Tianlu was very excited. It was true that the expanded ward area was temporarily given to Ling Ran, but everyone could use it. Even if the Health Department could not increase the approved number of beds in the center for the time being, it would not be a problem for them to have one room per person.
In fact, Ji Tianlu could almost imagine that when the wards in the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center became one room per person, patients would definitely come. If they had the means, no one would be willing to squeeze into a room with others.
During the time when the People's Republic of China was founded, a few families lived in one courtyard. Later on, as long as it was possible, even if they emptied their family fortune, they would still live separately.
It was the same in the hospital. Mount Hua Hospital, which was also affiliated to Fudan University, had patients who paid 1,200 RMB a day in the VIP ward. There were also patients who paid 2,000 RMB for medical insurance. There were still people coming and going, and it was very lively.
Mount Hua Hospital could do it, but the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center … naturally could not.
Without the approval of the Health Department, it was not easy to increase the price of public hospitals. They could only wait for the reform.
Ji Tianlu let out a long sigh. He picked up the landline and dialed the Nursing Department. He asked, "How many people are discharged today? How many empty beds are there? "
"Seven discharged. The procedures were completed in the afternoon." He could hear the sound of people running around on the other end of the phone.
"Huh? Only seven? Didn't a dozen people get discharged a few days ago? "
"Look at the time. There are a batch of patients who need finger replantation here. There's not enough time, and they don't qualify to be discharged." The Nursing Department paused for a moment and said, "There's not a single empty bed. Do as you see fit. Don't send more people here."
Ji Tianlu was stunned. "There's not a single empty bed? Add a few more … "
Adding more beds was actually just pulling a hospital bed to an empty spot.
Correspondingly, if they wanted to add more beds, they had to get the head nurse's approval. Otherwise, there was no point in arranging nurses to take care of the patients, and it was meaningless for them to stay on the hospital bed.
"Are you trying to tire us to death? No matter how many extra beds you add, there should be nurses, right? There are more than 100 nurses in total. How are you going to add more beds? " The head nurse's roar shook the heavens. "Let me tell you, it's not bad to occasionally earn overtime pay. If you dare to make it normal, I'll show you how perverted I am. Hurry up and reduce the number of beds. "
"Um …" Ji Tianlu felt wronged and said, "These are all Ling Ran's patients. What's the point of yelling at me?"
"Ling Ran is a new doctor. He's just doing a ward round. He doesn't even know how busy taking care of patients is. He's young and handsome. You can't be blamed if you don't know. How many years have you been a doctor? Don't you know the situation in a ward? " As the head nurse spoke, she added, "I want another twenty contract nurses. Otherwise, your new ward will have to close down."
The veins on Ji Tianlu's forehead throbbed. "You used to say that I'm quite handsome even though I'm middle-aged. You said that I have long arms …"
As a doctor who was thin, had long fingers, and paid attention to his appearance in Japanese dramas, Ji Tianlu had never been at a disadvantage when it came to his image.
As expected, the head nurse's voice softened a little. "You were pretty good when you were young, but you can't compare yourself to others. Alright, hurry up and tell Ling Ran."
"No, why do I have to tell Ling Ran? You can just tell him directly." Ji Tianlu was still not convinced, but when he recalled Ling Ran's face, Ji Tianlu could not ignore the truth.
The head nurse chuckled a few times. "You don't want me to lead the team anymore, right? If I talk to Ling Ran now, believe it or not, the group of girls born in the 90s will dare to go on strike. Also, do you know that the intern nurses now are all born in the 2000s? "
Ji Tianlu felt that there was too much information for him to process. "The people born in the 2000s are all nurses?"
"Intern nurses can now work 24 + 6 shifts. I say, the people born in the 2000s are all soldiers to protect the country. What do you old men know … Hurry up and tell me, I can handle it now. If I say something wrong, the intern will resign at any moment, believe it or not! "
"No, when did I become an old man …"
"Hurry up."
"Okay, okay, okay …" Ji Tianlu could hear that the head nurse was really anxious.
After staying in the hospital for a long time, one would know that nursing was not an easy job. Not only was the workload huge, but the responsibility was also huge.
Compared to the young doctors in the hospital, the probability of nurses being the scapegoat was not low. And the greater the workload, the greater the frequency of mistakes. Adding too many beds was really not a good idea.
Ji Tianlu laughed bitterly and had no choice but to look for Ling Ran.
The location … was naturally the operating theater.
At the same time.
A system notification popped up in front of Ling Ran.
[Mission Completed: Rise to Prominence]
[Mission Details: Made full use of the hospital beds in the Shanghai Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center. They have been filled up.]
[Mission Reward: Intermediate Treasure Chest]
Ling Ran suddenly raised his head and saw Ji Tianlu step open the door of the operating theater and enter.
"The hospital has run out of hospital beds." Ji Tianlu did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
In his mind, he wanted to be a chief physician who could "produce" hospital beds. However, this job was harder than Ji Tianlu imagined.
Although the ward area had expanded, he could not recklessly increase the number of nurses in the hospital. It was very difficult even for contract nurses. Besides, it was one thing to increase the number of hospital beds by four to five hundred in a short period of time, but it was another thing to maintain the number of hospital beds for a long period of time.
Based on the squeezing standards in the country, to maintain the operation of five hundred beds for twenty-four hours would require at least four hundred nurses. Otherwise, forget about Level One and Level Two nurses, they would not even be able to complete the task of changing infusion bags.
In addition, there would be a lot of care workers. The increase in the cost alone was not something that Ji Tianlu, a chief physician, could decide.
Of course, if it were Zhu Tongyi, the situation would be completely different.
If Zhu Tongyi needed it, he could even ask for a large number of authorized personnel. It would be even easier for him to increase the number of contracted nursing staff. No matter what, he could flatten an accounting book.
The difficulties in reality made Ji Tianlu admit defeat for a short while. He looked at Ling Ran and said, "You have to think of a way to reduce the number of patients you take in."
"What should I do with the patients who come to my door?" Ling Ran did not immediately open the treasure chest. Instead, he continued to focus on the surgery.
He performed the surgery very quickly, but if he stopped and delayed the surgery, it would still be delayed and affect the prognosis.
Ji Tianlu had thought about this problem a long time ago. He sighed and said, "We can still free up a few hospital beds every day. However, if it's not a very urgent surgery, I still suggest that you transfer them to other hospitals."
The Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center could not afford five hundred hospital beds at all. In the early stages, everyone was in a state of excitement and exhausted their physical strength to persist.
Adding more beds had always been beyond the level of their burden.
The Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center could not afford to add more beds for a long period of time.
Therefore, when the Nursing Department could not increase the number of nurses, and no one wanted to earn overtime pay, they had to reduce the number of hospital beds by a lot. The expanded ward area could be used again, and it was easy to maintain more than two hundred hospital beds. There were also single beds and a large number of double beds. Any more than that would not work.
"Transfer them to other hospitals?" Ling Ran tilted his head. It was obvious that he was reluctant.
Ji Tianlu said earnestly, "Don't be unhappy. There are endless surgeries."
"Oh," Ling Ran replied. He continued to lower his head and perform the surgery.
"You're still unhappy, right?" Ji Tianlu was nervous.
"No," Ling Ran answered.
"You're really unhappy, right?"
"No."
"Ah, listen to me. If the old doesn't go, the new won't come. Now that the new ward area has just been built, we can add more people after the operation is smooth."
"Oh."
"Are you angry?" Ji Tianlu could not help but approach Ling Ran. He wanted to continue persuading him.
* Thud, thud … *
* Thud, thud, thud … *
* Shick — *
The door of the operating theater was kicked open from the outside.
Huo Congjun put his hands behind his back and looked at Ji Tianlu with a profound gaze. He then walked over step by step.
Yu Yuan swayed as she walked at the back, and she looked like a smug fox.
"Department Director Huo … Why are you here again?" Ji Tianlu looked at Old Huo's face helplessly and asked, "About that … pelvic anatomy and …"
"Annual Gynecology Challenge?"
"Yes, this meeting should be over, right?"
"New Meeting." Department Director Huo stared at Ji Tianlu's shoulder. He saw Yu Yuan step forward and firmly move between Ling Ran and Ji Tianlu to separate them.
Ji Tianlu was curious and amused. "What meeting is this?"
"Sports Injury and Arthroscopy Surgery Forum," Department Director Huo answered calmly.
Ji Tianlu's expression changed. "Isn't that a meeting in Tsingtao?"
"Yes, it's a transfer to Shanghai."
"You're going astray, right?"
"I won't." As Huo Congjun spoke, he raised his head and said to Ling Ran, "Transfer the patients who come to you back to Yun Hua Hospital. It's very promising for our department to build an Emergency Medical Center now. By then, there will definitely be enough hospital beds."
