Song Chaoyang was full of praise and said, "Xiao Liang, I admire your way of thinking very much. It has also allowed me to understand you better. I also hope to see more graduates from famous universities like you enter the government, so that they can make full use of their advantages and strengths to better promote the development of local government affairs. But I still have to remind you that you have to be mentally prepared. You have to be able to endure loneliness. The government is not a business, and your salary is not determined by your ability. Many times, you may have the ability, but you still have to abide by the rules of the government. This is reflected in the promotion system for cadres. No matter how outstanding you are, you have to be promoted according to your years of experience. "
Liang Wenjing asked, "Didn't you say that there was an exception for promotions?"
Song Chaoyang laughed and said, "There is, there is. But the requirements for an exception for promotions are stricter. You have to meet one of those requirements."
Liang Wenjing said, "I will work hard to meet them."
Only someone like her who had just entered the government could say such words. If it were a cadre who had been in the government for many years, they would definitely not be able to say such words. But Song Chaoyang did not ridicule or look down on her. He said to Du Minsheng seriously, "It will not be easy for Xiao Liang to meet the requirements for an exception for promotions. But we can take care of her in other aspects and try our best to help an outstanding young cadre like her develop quickly. For example, the various selection tests held by the province, training, and so on. In short, we can't let these young people regret entering the government, or even regret it for the rest of their lives. "
Du Minsheng said, "Okay, I will take note of this."
After lunch, Song Chaoyang returned to his office to rest. When work officially started at 1: 30, he led a team to the Municipal Psychoneurology Medical Center for research.
Du Minsheng, the Secretary General of the Municipal Party Committee, accompanied him. This was almost an unshakeable tradition. Li Jing, the Deputy Mayor of the Municipal Government in charge of culture, education, and health, also accompanied him. The Municipal Health Bureau Chief, Chu Huimin, was also called over. Of course, there were also attendants like Li Rui and Ling Shuyao. A group of five or six cars drove toward the west of the city.
The Municipal Psychoneurology Medical Center was originally named Qingyang Psychiatric Hospital. In the late 1990s, a leader of the Health Bureau felt that this name was not good, so he followed the way of naming hospitals with similar diseases in Beijing, Shanghai, and other big cities and changed it to the current name. After the name was changed, it was much more high-end and pleasant to hear. It would not make people change their faces when they heard it, and it would not make related patients and family members flinch. After all, no one was willing to go to a mental hospital, let alone be known by others. Even if they were mentally ill, they absolutely did not like to do such a thing that would tarnish their reputation.
The hospital was located in the west of the central part of Gaokai District. At the end of the last century, when Qingyang City had not been developed on a large scale, that area was still in the wilderness. Why was the hospital built there? Those who had insider information said that they were worried that it would be difficult to catch the patient after he ran out of the hospital. However, no one verified whether this was true or not, or whether it made sense.
The research team arrived at the hospital at around two o 'clock and was warmly welcomed by the hospital's leadership at the entrance. After Song Chaoyang and Director Su Maoliang shook hands and exchanged pleasantries, he just nodded to the rest of the team members. Then, Su Maoliang led them on a tour of the hospital.
The hospital occupied an area of 500 mu and had a construction area of 60,000 square meters. Compared to ordinary municipal hospitals, it was much larger. It was no wonder that the Provincial Health Department had once said that once the hospital reached the third level, they could consider changing its name to the Seventh Provincial People's Hospital. It was because the hospital's land and construction area were worthy of the name of a provincial hospital.
Su Maoliang first led Song Chaoyang and the others on a tour of the outpatient clinic building. As they walked, he introduced, "… Our hospital is now responsible for the medical treatment, teaching, research, prevention, rehabilitation, psychological counseling/treatment, and external academic exchanges in the field of mental health and neurology in the city. It is the largest psychiatric and neurological medical institution in the province, with the most types of services and leading the most disciplines. Not long ago, the Provincial Medical University extended an olive branch to us, wanting us to undertake the internship courses and extracurricular activities of the students of the University of Medicine's psychiatric and neurological specialties. Our hospital has officially accepted it, and I believe that through this business, we can better expand the reputation of our hospital … "
Song Chaoyang listened and nodded occasionally, but did not express any opinions.
The group took the inclined stairs to the second floor and toured the hospital's key clinical departments: psychiatry, psychology, and neurology.
Su Maoliang continued to introduce to Song Chaoyang, "Our hospital's clinical departments are complete, and we have strong technical skills. We mainly treat patients with schizophrenia, mood disorders, organic mental disorders, mental disorders in childhood, adolescence, and old age, neurological disorders, and other mental disorders as well as drug-dependent patients. In addition, we have clinical departments for geriatric, rehabilitation, clinical psychology, infantile, infectious diseases, voluntary detoxification, and other clinical departments. "
In fact, Song Chaoyang was not interested in these contents. What he wanted to know was how far away the hospital was from becoming a third level hospital. But now that they were in the process of visiting, he still had to listen to what he needed to listen to. This was also a show of respect to Su Maoliang and the hospital.
After touring the outpatient building, Su Maoliang brought Song Chaoyang and the others to the inpatient department, the research building, the rehabilitation center, and other key buildings.
When they stood in front of the window on the south side of the fourth floor of the rehabilitation center, Song Chaoyang inadvertently discovered that in the depths of the hospital, in a pine and cypress forest to the south, there was another large building. The structure was a little strange: the wall was high, about three meters tall, and there was a small pavilion like a watchtower at the corner of the wall in each direction. There were a total of four small pavilions like this, some with people inside, some without people inside. There were many bungalows built against the four walls in the courtyard, and the doors were all closed. The courtyard occupied a very large area, about a hundred square meters, but there was no one in the courtyard, which gave off an eerie feeling. At first glance, it looked like a prison, but how could there be a prison in a hospital?
He curiously raised his finger and asked Su Maoliang, who was next to him, "Director Su, what kind of building is that? Is it also the composition of your hospital? "
Su Maoliang said a little awkwardly, "Secretary, that's the Intensive Mental Hospital. The people who live there are all the mental patients we often talk about. It's very difficult for this kind of patients to recover through conventional treatment, but it's not good to put them at home, so many of the patients' families send them here, and we send them to the courtyard. "
Song Chaoyang asked curiously, "Oh, but why is it built like a prison?"
Su Maoliang smiled bitterly and said, "If we don't do this, we can't control them at all! Secretary, you don't know, but a real mental patient is potentially as dangerous as a terrorist. In order to ensure their safety, and to ensure the safety of the hospital's medical staff and patients, we have to keep them under strict surveillance. We don't want to do this, after all, it's against human rights, but we really have no choice … "
Song Chaoyang said, "It's okay, I can understand. I'm just curious. By the way, why can't I see anyone in the courtyard? Where are the patients? "
Su Maoliang explained, "In order to maintain a good order and a safe living environment there, we deliberately changed the patients' work and rest habits, and artificially reversed the normal biological clock of the day and night in their bodies. At this time, it's the patients' night, and they're all sleeping in their rooms, so there's no one outside. "
Song Chaoyang was dumbfounded. He never would have thought that in terms of managing mental patients, so much thought and effort had to be put in. It was the best description of "nothing in this world is easy".
While he was talking to Su Maoliang and the other leaders in front, the accompanying staff members like Li Rui fell behind. Li Rui and Ling Shuyao walked together. Because the corridor was narrow and there were many people accompanying them, the two of them were close together, leaning against the wall.
Li Rui was a little bored, so he wanted to tease Ling Shuyao. When the people around them were not paying attention, he secretly used his elbow to poke her chest. Ling Shuyao immediately felt it and turned to look at him. Li Rui pretended not to see it and just looked at Song Chaoyang, who was not far in front of him. Ling Shuyao knew that he was playing tricks, so she peeked around. When she saw that no one was paying attention, she pretended to take a step forward, but she stepped on Li Rui's leather shoes with her high heels. She did not use much strength, but after all, she was just playing with him.
Li Rui's heart was itching to be stepped on by her. He looked down at her slender feet wrapped in skin-colored stockings and thought to himself, You're the culprit. You stepped on me today, so I'll pinch you next time.
After coming out of the rehabilitation center, everyone went to the hospital's leadership conference room for a discussion. At this time, it was the focus of Song Chaoyang's research trip.
The discussion was hosted by the Municipal Health Bureau Chief, Chu Huimin. He first pointed out the purpose of Song Chaoyang's visit to Su Maoliang and other hospital leaders. In fact, long before this research trip, Su Maoliang and the others had already received the news and were fully prepared. Even if they did not do it, Chu Huimin would have asked them to do it. Otherwise, if they were to have a meeting with the Municipal Party Committee's secretary without any preparation and were asked questions by the Municipal Party Committee's secretary, not only would the hospital leaders be embarrassed, but Chu Huimin, as a superior, would also lose face.
Of course, now that Chu Huimin said it again, it was just a hint to Su Maoliang and the others. The secretary's purpose of this trip was not changed. Next, they should prepare for the meeting as planned and answer the secretary's questions without worry.
After hearing this, Su Maoliang said, "First of all, on behalf of the hospital's leadership and all the hospital's medical staff, I would like to thank Song Shuji for his concern and attention to our hospital. I would also like to thank Song Shuji for taking time out of his busy schedule to inspect our work …"
