Chapter 528 The team lined up outside the hospital

The number of patients is still increasing, and even when the shift changes at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, there are still patients queuing up on the main road outside the emergency department.

This situation exceeded everyone's expectations, including Chen Qi.

Emergency departments sometimes have long queues in the middle of the night, usually when there are public health incidents or acute infectious diseases.

The rule of the emergency department is that it is often busy in the first half of the night, and you can take a break in the second half of the night. In addition to the emergency room being empty, the number of outpatients will be greatly reduced.

But today is strange, there are no fewer patients in the middle of the night.

Originally, Chen Qi's arrangement was to go to work on the first day, and when there were no more patients in the second half of the night, everyone would go back to rest except for a few emergency doctors who stayed behind.

Guys, with today's scene, you still want to go home and sleep?

Whether it is a doctor, a nurse, or a charge, a pharmacy, or a laboratory doctor, all of them are exhausted after this high-intensity 6-hour shift.

Yi Zewen had no chance to go out when he was in the operating room. Trauma patients came one after another.

If you look carefully, you can find that his surgical gown is completely soaked, but he is still gritting his teeth.

When there was a gap in the operation, he and Zhang Xing sat down on the ground, opened a bottle of glucose solution, and started drinking.

"Oh my god, is this the emergency department? Why is it so busy? If I continue to work, I will need first aid."

Zhang Xing is relatively introverted, but today he is exhausted as a first aid, and the hand holding the glucose bottle is a little trembling.

This is not allowed to happen to a surgeon. After all, the requirement of surgery is that the hands must not shake, but there is no way, Zhang Xing is too tired.

"Brother Yi, I want to pee, I can't hold it anymore."

When Yi Zewen heard this, he also reluctantly got up: "Let's go pee together. Grandma only pees once every 6 hours. Sooner or later she will get stones."

The two of them were about to stand up with support, when the door of the operating room was knocked open again:

"Director Yi, Doctor Zhang, hurry up, this is a worker who just arrived from the steel mill. His palm was cut in the middle and divided into two."

"A severed limb replantation?"

As soon as Yi Zewen heard it, he knew that this was Dean Chen's forte, so he quickly reminded:

"Hurry up, go and ask Dean Chen to come over, and say that he needs to perform a severed palm replantation technique. He is an international expert on this."

As soon as the little nurse heard this, she swished and ran out.

Chen Qizheng, Lan Lijuan, and three or four small doctors were busy in the emergency room. An elderly patient with diabetes and coma came. Everyone is investigating the cause.

"President Chen, hurry up, a worker whose palm was cut off just came to the operating room. Director Yi said that you are an expert in replanting severed palms, so you should go quickly."

The condition is an order, Chen Qi gritted his teeth and ran to the operating room even though he was quite tired.

But he ran a few steps and found that the exhaustion on the faces of all the medical staff was very obvious. Although head nurse Shou didn't say a word, Chen Qi saw her leaning against the wall at the corner and slowing down for a while.

The job of a doctor is mental labor + physical labor. The patients sit in a circle and the doctor sits in the middle.

This physical fatigue combined with mental exhaustion, even the work efficiency has dropped a lot.

Chen Qi is a doctor himself, so he can better understand the difficulty of medical workers. He thought that with such an emergency volume, if he had to last one night, the emergency department would have to close tomorrow.

Why? The medical staff are all about to collapse.

Chen Qi passed by the surgery clinic and pulled Comrade Guo out of the patient pile.

Guo Yuanhang was not tired at all. The patients came one after another. The more he worked, the more excited he became, which greatly satisfied his clinical desire.

"Hey, if you have something to say, hurry up, there are so many patients waiting."

"Uncle Guo, it won't work like this."

Chen Qi calls Guo Yuanhang Uncle Guo in private, Shuji Guo in public, and sometimes old Comrade Guo when he is in a good mood.

"Look at the medical staff in the emergency department today. They have been on duty all day. They haven't stopped after dinner until 12 o'clock in the middle of the night. They have worked continuously for more than ten hours. I am afraid they will not be able to bear it."

Old Guo looked around the emergency department, a bit embarrassed:

"I can't help it if I'm tired. There are so many patients waiting, and many of them are probably critically ill. How can we just close the door?"

Chen Qi looked at his watch, decided to be a hands-off shopkeeper, and threw this trouble to the old dean in front of him:

"Hey, Uncle Guo, I don't care about it. I still have a palm replantation at hand. The patient is waiting for me in the operating room. I'll go there first. You can think of a way."

"Hey, you brat, really."

Old Guo scolded and scolded, but his mind was spinning rapidly. As a veteran hospital, this kind of scene is trivial:

"Old Zuo, come here."

The new chief of the medical department, Zuo Liwei, ran over quickly: "Shu Ji, what instructions do you have?"

"Go, you represent the hospital now, go to the general duty room and make a call. All middle-level cadres are now gathered in the hospital."

Zuo Liwei nodded again and again, then thought of something and asked in surprise: "Why do you have to call all the middle-level cadres here?"

Guo Yuanhang pointed at the patients in the room and shouted loudly:

"Of course they are asked to be doctors to see patients. We call all the directors of the departments and let them work on the night shift after today. In addition, the middle-level cadres who are not medical professionals will all go to the pharmacy or the charging office to help.

What do leading cadres do? These are the people who represent our working class with the most advanced thinking and the most willingness to work. Now that the hospital is short of manpower, of course they must go first. "

Zuo Liwei laughed when he heard this: "The old dean is still thoughtful, so I'll call now."

President Guo picked up a microphone in the emergency department again, and started shouting to the medical staff through the emergency speaker:

"Comrades, I'm Guo Yuanhang. I know everyone is working hard tonight. Don't worry, Dean Chen and I have been fighting on the front line of the clinic like you. Next, some department directors will come over one after another.

After these directors come over, you can take a rest. If your health is too much, you can go back to the dormitory and lie down for a while. Of course, if you can persist, I hope you can persevere. So many patients are waiting, which shows that they trust our People's Hospital.

We can't let the patients down, let alone delay the patient's condition because of our reasons. We must keep in mind that the bounden duty of our medical staff is to serve the people. In addition, I have urgently asked the cafeteria to prepare snacks to ensure that everyone will not be hungry. "

Guo Yuanhang's words gave the exhausted crowd a shot of excitement, and they screamed again.

"I can hold on!"

"Guo Shuji and the two of us are fine!"

"Fight it!"

The voice of calling for a fight came from every corner of the emergency room, which made Dean Guo's eyes wet when he heard it.

"Okay, they are all good, showing the high quality and demeanor of our people's hospital medical staff, so let's roll up our sleeves and work hard."

Many family members of the patients in the room applauded and applauded loudly:

"Thanks for your hard work, you doctors!"

"I'm really sorry that you didn't have to rest all night!"

"Salute to the People's Hospital~~~"

The staff dormitory of the People's Hospital is not far from the hospital. At this time, the directors and section chiefs received calls from the hospital office, asking them to gather in the emergency department immediately.

Many directors cursed and put on their clothes.

It was already mid-November at this time, and the weather was getting colder. It took a lot of perseverance and courage to get up from the warm blanket.

However, when most clinical directors heard that the emergency department of the hospital needed support, they rushed out of the house without saying a word and put on their clothes.

In the darkness, people came out from every stairway.

"Ah, Lao Li, did you also receive a call?"

"Yeah, I heard that there are more than 100 people waiting in line for internal medicine alone. My dear, this is busier than during the day."

"Who says it's not? Surgical patients who need emergency surgery have piled up on the main road, and there are not enough surgeons."

"Let's hurry up, the patients are waiting, the new dean Chen and the old dean have been busy for a long time."

"Let's go, what kind of bicycle are you riding for such a short distance?"

When these directors came to the main road outside the emergency room to take a look, they all took a breath of air.

"What's going on here? These patients don't sleep most of the night, is it popular to see a doctor?"

"That's too much. It's late at night, let's hurry up, and don't let the cold worsen the condition of the masses."

The department directors who arrived one after another put on white coats one by one, rushed into the consultation room, emergency room, and operating room without complaint, and began to replace the little doctors and nurses who had been busy for more than ten hours.

Director Zhu also came to the surgical clinic at this time, saw Lao Guo who was loudly asking the patient, and hurried in:

"Shu Ji, take a break first, and leave the rest to me."

Old Guo refused to accept his old age, and waved his hand indifferently:

"I can hold on for a while. I've been to less outpatient clinics these years, and I just got some feeling back. Don't just stand there, sit by the side and start seeing a doctor!"

"Okay, then we will increase the speed by more than one doctor."

In future generations, it is impossible for you to increase the number of doctors in the emergency department at night, because whether it is billing or prescribing medicine, you need a computer to work.

The computers in the emergency department are limited, one can only be used by one doctor, and several doctors can also use it. Without computers, prescriptions cannot be issued.

It was different in the 1980s. Now it is still in the handwritten prescription, and the checklist also needs the doctor to fill in the items.

Patients have to go to the toll window to pay with the prescription or checklist, and then take the medicine. The pharmacy will keep the prescription paper on file for review at any time.

So in theory, doctors only need a desk and a stethoscope to start working.

Sure enough, with the joining of the old directors, the speed of seeing a doctor instantly accelerated.

In addition, the old directors have rich experience, some small problems and ailments can be figured out after a few questions, and the speed of prescribing medicines is very fast.

Vietnam People's Hospital is a prefecture-level tertiary hospital and the only tertiary hospital in Vietnam. The doctors are all superior.

Especially for these old directors and department directors, it is very difficult to register at ordinary times, and sometimes they have to turn to scalpers for help.

It's all right now. It's hard to get an appointment these days. The rare old directors are all sitting in the emergency department to see patients. The people queuing up tonight are all excited and feel that they have made a fortune.

Don't doubt the speed of news transmission. Even though there was no mobile WeChat in the 1980s, the news that experts from various disciplines were seeing a doctor in the emergency room was miraculously passed on.

It is estimated that many family members saw the expert coming, and knocked on the door of their relatives and friends overnight, asking them to see a doctor quickly.

Even the lights of the guest house next to the People's Hospital were turned on at this time, and it was full of patients who came from the counties below. When they heard that the experts had been outpatient clinics overnight, none of them stayed up, and all of them came.

Then the family members of patients who queued up overnight in the outpatient building for registration were all gathered in the emergency department.

So the number of people queuing at the beginning did decrease, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, good guy, the later the night, the more people queuing up.

This scene can be said to be something that has never happened since the establishment of the People's Hospital.

When Chen Qi came out of the operating room after receiving a palm, he was stunned to see the emergency room as crowded as a bus compartment.

I feel that I have played too much with fire. This posture is the rhythm that will exhaust the medical staff, especially those little old men and women.

Seeing these respectable medical staff with tired faces, Chen Qi's eyes were also a little wet, and he felt indescribably moved and uncomfortable.

As a doctor, he can only do limited things by himself.

But as the dean, he can compensate these workers who spend the whole night seeing the doctor from more places.

At this time, the sky was already a little dark, Chen Qi looked at his watch, it was 5 o'clock in the morning.

So I ran to Jiefang Road without even changing my surgical gown. In the 1980s, the atmosphere had been opened up, especially in Yuezhong City, which is a traditional place of business, and the style of doing business is very popular.

Chen Qi ran to Xianqian Street, where there were temporary breakfast stalls, offering everything from porridge, wontons, baked dumplings, zongzi, noodles, rice cakes, rice balls, raw coke buns, Xiaolongbao, noodles, tofu nao, etc.

By the way, the tofu nao in Etsuchu is salty.

Seeing so many stalls, Chen Qi scratched his head.

He wanted to get some breakfast for the workers who worked the night shift, but he ran out just now, and now he is in trouble.

He didn't know what so many doctors and nurses like to eat? What flavor?

There are dozens of medical staff in the second emergency department, and he can't get dozens of breakfasts.

Just when he was a little tangled, he suddenly touched his bulging wallet and slapped himself.

How much is breakfast?

To his "Chen Wanwan", it's just a drop in the bucket. Why worry about things that money can solve?

So Chen Qi clapped his hands at the surrounding breakfast stalls, and the small vendors all looked over blankly:

"Hello everyone, I am the director of the People's Hospital. Today I would like to trouble you with one thing. Our hospital opened a new emergency department last night."

(Dean Chen did not forget to advertise at the critical moment)

"Then there were more than 60 to 70 medical staff in the emergency department who worked all night, and they didn't have breakfast, so I would like to invite everyone to put your breakfast stalls in our People's Hospital, so that my staff can eat Have a hot breakfast."

As soon as Chen Qi finished speaking, the eyes of the small vendors around him became even more confused.
