After the outpatient consultation ended, Huo Congjun acted as if he had just returned home victorious. He invited Doctor Liu out for a meal, while the other doctors dispersed.
Nowadays, department gatherings were not allowed, but no one dared to do so.
Doctor Zhou quietly tugged at Ling Ran and quickly left the office.
"I'm afraid that you'll say the wrong thing in the office. If you stay in the office, there will definitely be people asking all sorts of questions." Doctor Zhou walked through the corridor and kindly explained the situation to Ling Ran. He thought about it and added, "Although you've already said a lot of things wrong."
"Did I say anything wrong?" Ling Ran looked puzzled.
Doctor Zhou glanced at Ling Ran and smiled mysteriously. He said, "Don't talk about medical procedures. It's not our turn. Things like the doctor-patient relationship can be discussed in private, but don't mention it unless necessary. Everyone is very sensitive. "
"Oh." Ling Ran nodded.
"Hey, you don't want to ask why?" Doctor Zhou was a little puzzled. He had taught many newbies in the past, and everyone had their own opinions on this topic.
"I don't want to ask." Ling Ran's answer was very straightforward.
Doctor Zhou, on the other hand, felt a little anxious. He had thought of a lot of things to say, but now he could not spit them out. What should he do?
"You'll be on duty with me tonight," Doctor Zhou said after some thought.
"Okay." Ling Ran's answer was still very straightforward, which made Doctor Zhou feel very helpless.
Being on duty was the worst, and it was second only to doctor-patient disputes in the hospital. Being on duty usually lasted for as long as 24 hours, and the unlucky ones might even have to work for 36 hours. It was known as the Steam Order of Laziness, the Steam Hammer of Health, and the Steam Engine of Divorce. Doctors could not wait to avoid it.
However, medical interns could not be judged by common sense. Doctor Zhou could not see any changes in Ling Ran's expression. He could only say, "You'll know how powerful you are when you're on duty at night."
In the evening.
The doctors who were not on duty left one after another, especially the chief physicians and associate chief physicians. The atmosphere in the department became cheerful.
The Emergency Department of Yun Hua Hospital was much larger than that of a normal tertiary Grade A hospital. There were a total of six chief physicians and associate chief physicians, and they were divided into five treatment groups. When it was time for them to be on duty, a resident doctor from each treatment group would stay behind as a first-string doctor, and an attending physician would take turns to be on duty. That meant there were six people on duty every night.
As for the other attending physicians, they only needed to be assigned to the second string.
This number of people could already catch up with the total number of people in many hospitals' emergency departments.
Of course, the number of patients received at night was also comparable to the number of patients received in the Emergency Department of other hospitals in a day.
Doctor Zhou led the plain and ugly resident doctor and Ling Ran around the observation room before they arrived at the waiting room. He explained, "There are a total of four waiting rooms for doctors in the Emergency Department. There are two waiting rooms for first-string doctors, one for second-string doctors, and one for third-string doctors."
As he spoke, Doctor Zhou opened a few rooms for Ling Ran to see.
First-string doctors were mainly made up of resident doctors, housemen, and a few junior attending physicians. The on-call lounge assigned by the department was a small room for four people. There was a bathroom, but they could not take a shower. They had to sleep on bunk beds, and it was even simpler than many university dormitories.
The second-string doctors were mainly senior attending physicians. The waiting room was the same, but there were only two people living in it. The upper and lower bunk beds were changed into two single beds, and it was not as cramped as before.
The third-string doctors were a few associate chief physicians and chief physicians. Although the lounge was still occupied by two people, the area had increased by quite a lot. The conditions were comparable to the standard rooms in budget hotels. The only difference was that they could not take a shower.
Doctor Zhou showed Ling Ran the three rooms with a strong sense of hierarchy and said, "The waiting room is not assigned to anyone. All doctors on duty can sleep there. You just have to take your personal belongings with you the next day."
Ling Ran asked, "What about the bedding?"
"When the care workers change the bedsheets and quilts in the ward, they will help to change them," Doctor Zhou said.
"Sometimes when they are too busy, they will also put new ones at the head of the bed. You can change them yourself." The resident doctor, who looked so ordinary that even his name could not be remembered, laughed honestly and sincerely imparted his experience. He said, "Actually, when you are on duty in the Emergency Department, you often don't have a chance to sleep. There are quite a lot of emergency patients at night."
As he spoke, he pouted and said, "Doctor Zhou, you might be able to sleep well."
"Bah, bah, bah, child's words carry no harm." Doctor Zhou stopped the resident doctor's prophecy in a half-joking manner. He then said, "Whether I can have a good night's sleep or not depends on all of you. If there's a patient coming, all of you can diagnose and treat him first. If he can be dealt with, I won't have to do anything. Similarly, if I can deal with them, I don't need to call the second-string doctors, and they can sleep well. Of course, everyone should be more serious. Don't trouble the third-string doctors. No matter which chief physician or associate chief physician comes, they will definitely scold people when they come. "
The resident doctor nodded vigorously. "The chief physicians who usually don't scold people will scold people when they come at night."
"One more thing, Ling Ran, you are not allowed to operate on your own. You can only operate when there are other doctors in front of you and they authorize you to do it," Doctor Zhou reminded him.
"Alright." Ling Ran had not obtained a medical practitioner's license, so he could not practice medicine independently. There were many doctors in the department who could authorize him during the day, but he had to specifically look for them at night.
"If the first-string doctors can't handle it, look for the second-string doctors. If the second-string doctors can't handle it, call the third-string doctors. There are many patients who drank alcohol at night, so you have to be especially careful. You have to pay attention to the safety of the patients and yourself. If there is, hide first. Our doors are reinforced. You can lock yourself and make the call. Don't be afraid of embarrassing yourself.
Ling Ran had no experience, so he agreed.
The plain and ugly resident doctor listened and said with a smile, "It's not that incredible. I've been here for three years, and I've only seen people blocking the door twice. Usually, people just shout and scream …"
"Isn't it enough to run into people blocking the door once a year?" Doctor Zhou glared at him and said, "Soldiers may not necessarily encounter as many conflicts as we do. Alright, be careful. Go back to your work. "
Doctor Zhou chased Ling Ran and the plain and ugly resident doctor out. He sat in the second-string waiting room, closed the door, lay on the chair, crossed his legs, and turned on the news broadcast. He was extremely comfortable.
For a doctor who was lazy, becoming an attending physician was the beginning of his dream. If he was lucky, he did not need to go out for the whole night, and he could still get a few times the duty fee of a resident doctor.
…..
At the nurses' station.
The young nurses on night shift were surprised to see Ling Ran.
Even Nurse Liu, who was older, was quite happy to see Ling Ran. She poured him a glass of water and said with a smile, "Doctor Ling, are you on duty now?"
"Thank you. I'll be on duty today. "Ling Ran took the water and sat on the armchair that the nurses gave him. He started to observe the surroundings.
He was observing the surroundings, and the young nurses around him were also observing Ling Ran. But when he looked over, they quickly lowered their heads.
"Doctor Ling's skin is good." A young nurse boldly said, and she immediately got a lot of agreement. Then, someone asked, "How do you take care of your skin?"
Ling Ran thought for a while and said, "My mother gave me the facial cleanser and soap. She also gave me the facial cream."
If the same answer was given by a man who was not a handsome man, he would definitely be called a mama's boy. However, at this time, the young nurses who were dizzy with excitement did not think that there was anything wrong with Ling Ran's answer. They all exclaimed in surprise.
"Ling Ran's mother is so fashionable."
"Fortunately, Doctor Ling's mother knows how to take care of her skin."
There was even someone who quietly whispered to her best friend, "My mother-in-law seems to be quite easy to get along with."
Nurse Liu, who had two blue slashes on her hat, was already married. After admiring her prince charming, she coughed a few times to intimidate the crowd and said, "Doctor Ling, you don't have to stay here. If a patient comes, we will inform you."
"What about the observation room?" Ling Ran asked.
"There are also nurses on duty in the observation room. There aren't many patients at the moment, so you can take a nap first." Nurse Liu paused for a moment. She thought of Ling Ran's identity as an intern, so she asked, "Doctor Ling, which symptoms are you interested in? If they appear, I can leave them for you. "
"Hand tendon injury," Ling Ran immediately answered.
He had just learned the M-Tang technique, and he had secretly gone to the training room to try it on a lab rat. It was very smooth. After all, he had never performed it on the spot before, so he still needed to try it.
Nurse Liu was a little surprised, and she noted it down in her notebook. "What else? Are you not interested in patients who perform normal sutures? "
"The number of sutures during the day is enough," Ling Ran answered very directly.
Nurse Liu nodded in understanding.
This was how doctors were. What they cared about the most was always the first chance to get started. After that, as the number of operations increased, the feeling of novelty would decrease, and they would become bored.
The improvement of medical skills was not linear. The improvement of the first ten, twenty, and then fifty surgeries would be the most obvious. After that, if a doctor wanted to improve qualitatively, he would need to perform hundreds of surgeries.
Ling Ran's days in the Emergency Department were basically used for debridement and suturing. He completed more than fifty cases in one day, and the rest of the days were about thirty cases on average. With this number, there was indeed no need for him to stay up all night to suture. After all, he had encountered most of the positions that normal people could suture, and he had also performed them on the spot. If he wanted to improve his skills in this area, he would have to encounter humans with more unique anatomical structures or humans with more unique injuries.
Theoretically, Ling Ran could send another wave of Sincere Gratitude. Unfortunately, tomorrow was Friday, and he was not sure what method Department Director Huo would use for ward rounds. Moreover, the randomness of Sincere Gratitude was a little too strong, and Ling Ran did not like it.
What he liked was a definite reward.
When he thought of the reward, Ling Ran recalled the Specialist Level Interrupted Vertical Mattress Suture that he had never used before, so he said, "You can also wake me up if there's a laceration of the scrotum."
"Uh … okay." Nurse Liu was experienced and knowledgeable, and she did not show a strange expression.
The seven or eight young nurses sitting at the nurses' station took the opportunity to look at Ling Ran. They were addicted to looking at him.
Eccentricity?
That did not exist. Ugly people's hobbies were eccentricities. Prince Charming's eccentricities only meant that he was a maverick.
"Let's go back." Ling Ran greeted the resident doctor who came with him.
The plain and ugly resident doctor walked up and down the corridor in front of the nurses' station. He poured himself a glass of water, gave directions to others, helped others fill in forms, pulled out chairs, and even went to the computer to check the medical records. However, he did not receive any attention. When he was called by Ling Ran, he quietly followed him back to the waiting room.
"If you want to sleep, hurry up. Someone will come and wake you up in a while." The resident doctor lay on the bed with his clothes on.
Ling Ran thought about it and agreed. Although there were seven people on duty, including himself, Doctor Zhou was a second-string doctor, and he did not need to go into battle when there was nothing important. The remaining six people would not be able to handle a fight or a car accident.
As he thought about it, Ling Ran fell asleep.
In his dreams, he vaguely heard the sound of a door opening and closing. He vaguely heard someone say something like, "Why are you calling me again?", "I don't have any suitable indications," and "Let me sleep a little longer."
He slept well.
When Ling Ran woke up again, it was already the next morning.
He habitually went to the bedside table to look for water to drink. He accidentally found an unopened bottle of purified water, a thick porcelain mug, and an unopened set of dental tools beside it.
There was also a note stuck on the dental tools. [Doctor Ling, there were no patients with hand tendon injuries last night. I saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I did not wake you up. The mug has been sterilized at high temperature. Please use it without worry. The path of medicine is long. Pay attention to striking a balance between work and rest ^ _ ^]
