Chapter 895: Flurry and Chaos

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Huo Congjun left the moment he said that he would. He called several resident doctors and attending physicians over and gave them some orders. He then headed to his Burn Center to attend to things.

As a former military doctor, most things Huo Congjun knew about medicine was about burns. Hence, when there was a large number of burn patients, Huo Congjun was not satisfied with merely exercising his role as a department director.

Everyone’s gaze shifted from Huo Congjun to Ling Ran.

A few ordinary resident doctors could not help but look doubtfully at Ling Ran.

They had watched as Ling Ran entered the hospital, conquered his internship and became a resident doctor without being a houseman first. And they knew that Ling Ran was way out of their league.

No one in Yun Hua Hospital doubted Ling Ran’s skill anymore. But when it came to management, things were different.

Everyone had rarely seen Ling Ran speak out in public, let alone gave brief speeches as a leader. And the situation in the Emergency Department right now was tense…

“Next, all treatment groups must transfer all the patients that can be transferred to other departments. As for those who cannot be transferred, divide them into ‘critical’, ‘serious’, and ‘minor’.” Ling Ran had experienced the entirety of two disaster relief efforts, plus he did not even know how serious this fire was, so there was nothing much for him to be afraid about.

It was never a problem for Ling Ran to handle a major situation.

“Zuo Cidian, take a houseman with you and go to the patient assistance desk to help out. Tell the patients and their family members about the current situation. Ask the patients who don’t fulfill the criterion for emergency treatment to leave or head to specialized departments for treatment.

“As for patients in the ward who are qualified to be discharged, try to discharge them as soon as possible. Nurses, start rolling out extra beds.”

Ling Ran was talking very quickly, but his meaning was very clear, and his logic was sound. The slightly tense atmosphere in the emergency room quickly dissipated.

After that, Ling Ran looked at the resident doctors and said, “All treatment groups should go ahead with their tasks. If there’s a need, I’ll help out.”

The resident doctors who had just relaxed a little froze for a moment. They raised their heads and wanted to ask some questions, but Ling Ran was already heading toward the treatment room.

“About this…” A resident doctor with such an ordinary appearance that other people could not even remember his name went over to Zuo Cidian and quickly asked, “Doctor Zuo, what procedure are we following now? I don’t know what to tell our chief physician after he comes out of the operating theater later…”

“Carry on with your tasks, and Doctor Ling will be helping out. Is there anything you don’t understand about this?” Zuo Cidian said flatly.

“I guess I don’t understand the part about Doctor Ling helping out. How will he be helping out? I’ll have to tell our chief physician about it…” the resident doctor said meekly.

It was tougher to work in the Emergency Department than other specialized departments because even chief physicians and associate chief physicians had to be at the forefront of the charge. Aside from the fact that they got to sleep more when they were on the night shift, they rarely received any special treatment.

That was very tough on the bodies of senior doctors who were already old and frail. And for junior doctors, it was also very tough for them to always have their superiors around them. This really bored them too.

So, if the resident doctors did not want to be scolded by the chief physicians and associate chief physicians, not only would they have to perform well in the operating theater and when making ward rounds, but they also had to carry out the daily tasks involved in the operating theater well.

Now that a resident doctor who looked so ordinary that it was hard for others to remember his name was asking a question, the other junior doctors who were working in the treatment room also crowded over.

Since they did not dare to crowd around Ling Ran, who was basically their boss, they had no choice but to crowd around Zuo Cidian, who always wore a smile on his wrinkled face.

Zuo Cidian gazed at the first resident doctor who spoke for a few seconds, but he was unable to remember the name of the ordinary-looking physician doctor. So, he asked, “Who’s your chief physician?”

“Chief Physician Tao,” the resident doctor answered.

“Oh… Chief Physician Tao will be fine with it. He’s a mild-tempered man, and we’re facing an emergency situation now. Don’t you think so?” Zou Cidian smiled.

“How about Department Associate Director Du? What should I report to him?” another resident doctor asked Zuo Cidian.

Zuo Cidian looked at the other party and flashed another smile. “Department Associate Director Du will be fine with it too.”

“How about Associate Chief Physician Li…”

“Associate Chief Physician Li will be fine with it too.”

There were only two chief physicians in the Emergency Medical Center, and they were Huo Congjun and Chief Physician Tao. There were also three associate chief physicians, and two of them had their own treatment groups. Along with the Ling Treatment Group, they had five treatment groups in total.

After the resident doctors asked Zuo Cidian about their respective group leaders, they realized that Zuo Cidian was saying all of them would be fine with it.

“How could they be fine with it?”

“Maybe Chief Physician Tao is indeed mild-tempered, but will the other leaders be fine with it?”

“I know, right? Associate Chief Physician Li from our treatment group is super hot-tempered. If he asks me about this later and I’m unable to come up with a satisfactory answer, he’ll probably flay me alive.”

“Our boss isn’t an amicable man either…”

Zuo Cidian started chuckling.

Everyone looked at him, and he smiled. “So, do you think that your leaders are more hot-tempered, or do you think that Department Director Huo is more hot-tempered?”

The resident doctors who were uttering a cacophony of complaints immediately went silent.

Zuo Cidian looked around and realized that there was nobody else around. Hence, he continued, “I’ll tell you guys something else: if someone were to call me out on it at a later date, I won’t admit that I was the one who said it.”

All the resident doctors nodded.

Zuo Cidian nodded a little and said in his slightly hoarse voice, “Do you guys think that Doctor Ling is an amicable person?”

The resident doctors looked at each other vigilantly. They then realized what Zuo Cidian was implying and started chuckling.

“That’s why.” Zuo Cidian took a deep breath. “Go ahead with your tasks. Clear out the patients in your respective treatment group. If you’re unable to discharge enough patients or the process is going slowly, Doctor Ling will go and help out.”

All the resident doctors understood what was going on now. Ling Ran was not an amicable person who was taking charge instead of Huo Congjun. He was the whip that Huo Congjun was using to dominate them.

This was totally Huo Congjun’s style.

The resident doctors did not say anything else. Those who were supposed to make calls did so, and those who had tasks on their plates went about them. They looked like a flock of sparrows who were shocked by the chiming of the clock tower, dying to shit on every single bald head in the temples.

…..

Ling Ran discharged many of the patients from his treatment group.

His treatment group executed a policy where patients were kept in the hospital for a long time because the Emergency Medical Center was not monitored for the turnover of patients. Hence, there were even some patients in his wards who were only going through rehabilitation exercises.

Of course, these patients would be able to recover faster if they were to rehabilitate in the hospital. However, they would not be greatly affected if they were to rest at home. They would just take a month or two longer to recover.

Ling Ran authorized the discharge forms for almost twenty patients at one go. It was only after that did he wash his hands and return to the emergency room.

Right now, all the treatment groups in the emergency room were busy.

The second-string attending physicians had come over from the waiting rooms, their home or even operating theaters so that they could clear out all the patients in the treatment room, where the patients with minor burns would be gathered. The nurses were changing the treatment room’s layout so that a large number of burn patients could fit inside.

As for the third-strong associate chief physicians and chief physicians, some of them had exited the operating theaters, while some were still working in the operating theaters.

As usual, the resident doctors were always the busiest. They were akin to worker bees in the hive, junior monks in the temples, and pimps in wh*rehouses. They needed to work while other people were sleeping. They needed to work when other people were working in their beds. When other people finished their work in their beds and rested, they still had to work.

Ling Ran stood with his hands clasped behind his back. He swept his gaze around the treatment room like a hawk and made various judgments.

A patient suffering from abdominal pain and was suspected to suffer from appendicitis was sent to the General Surgery Department. What a waste!

A patient with a minor fracture was transferred to the Orthopedics Department after receiving an X-ray. What a waste!

A patient, whose buttocks were whipped so badly that it was bleeding, was restrained by his parents and a resident doctor at the same time. He let out a shrill scream as he received an injection… This one was not going anywhere.

Ling Ran stopped in his tracks. He immediately went over to them and said, “I’ll do it.”

The flustered resident doctor was not even able to voice out his objection. He had no choice but to continue restraining the patient. He watched as Ling Ran grabbed the needle holder and administered anesthetics.

Usually, patients with such minor injuries were the best source material for resident doctors or even housemen to put in some practice. But today, they were forced to be relegated to assistants who did not actually do anything.

Ling Ran quickly administered local anesthetics. He then quickly performed drainage and stitched up the wound. Before the resident doctor could react, Ling Ran left, inadvertently passing the patient with stitches on his buttocks to the other party.

Soon after that, Ling Ran immediately performed a tracheotomy on a patient beside him who was having difficulty breathing. After electrocardiography was done, the patient was transferred to the Cardiology Department.

It was flurry and chaos in the emergency room.

To clear out the treatment room and make way for burn patients as soon as possible, all the doctors who were supposed to be resting were working. As for the patients in the waiting room, they were quickly being categorized and treated.

While the doctors were busy working, the siren of an ambulance rang out.
