Chapter 786 I’ll Double Your Salary
"Wow, is there such a good thing?"
"We should also thank Bao'an County for the braised pork."
"Yeah, let's drink while we can. Let's eat our fill for the next two months first. We'll be hungry when we go back anyway."
As soon as Director Zhao finished speaking, the applause at the scene became enthusiastic, and many people in the audience even cheered.
Ding~~~
Lin Sanqi found out why these medical staff were so indifferent and perfunctory.
Because they have no motivation to come to Bao'an County.
Because being an infectious disease doctor is too dangerous.
Others may not feel it, but Lin Sanqi, a native of Huadu, feels it the most deeply. Huadu was the first to explode in 2003.
The number of deaths among medical personnel that year accounted for one-third of the total deaths.
Therefore, there are three traditional places not to go in the hospital: the emergency department, the pediatric department, and the infectious disease department.
Among them, the infectious disease department ranks first and everyone avoids it.
As for going to a specialized hospital for infectious diseases, it is even more daunting. Not to mention tuberculosis and the like, just leprosy is enough to make people terrified.
Even decades later, suddenly one day dozens of patients with fever are sent to the hospital, and no matter how you check, you cannot find the cause of the disease.
At this time, you should visit Hua Tuo more often and be mentally prepared. Maybe, maybe, maybe... I don’t know if it’s too late to wear an N95 mask.
The infectious disease department is so dangerous. You never know when death will come, but the hospital’s big bonus will never come.
The 2,000 medical staff present at the conference today were originally from general internal medicine or surgery. If they were suddenly asked to change careers and go to a department where life is in danger, it would be strange that they would be willing to do so.
Lin Sanqi put himself in her shoes and thought that if he were asked to work in the infectious disease department after graduating from university, he might not be willing to do so.
As for the group of overseas doctors who volunteered to join the Capital Infectious Disease Hospital a few years ago and were all very excited, that was because they had no choice.
If you don't go to the infectious disease hospital, you will have to go home to farm. Because of your identity, you will be despised in the countryside and your life will be worse than death.
So going to the infectious disease hospital is a life-saving straw for those doctors who studied abroad, but for the two thousand doctors and nurses in front of them, they are forced to make this choice.
Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi finally understood why these medical staff were so indifferent.
But things always need to be done by someone. If everyone is afraid to do it, who will take care of the infectious diseases?
Having found the reason, Lin Sanqi suddenly turned on the microphone, coughed a few times to attract everyone's attention, and then spoke:
"I was just wondering why everyone was so uninterested. Even a piece of braised pork was more appealing than this tuberculosis training. Now I know why."
The two thousand doctors and nurses in the audience were all confused, thinking, what do you know?
The several department heads on the stage pricked up their ears, their hearts racing. They wondered if Lin Sanqi would just cancel the training program out of anger and stop caring about the health system altogether.
Lin Sanqi smiled and continued:
“I understand one thing: if you want a horse to run fast, you have to feed it enough grass.
My current position is the director of the Capital Infectious Disease Hospital. I founded this first infectious disease hospital in the country, so I can fully understand the difficulties faced by infectious disease doctors.
It's not just the workload. For example, doctors at the Capital Infectious Disease Hospital see at least 100 patients a day. Do you understand what that means? They barely even have time to pee.
Our nurses are very active when they are taking care of patients, giving them medicine and IV drips. They run around in the ward and take at least 30,000 steps a day.
"The medical staff are also very busy, taking X-rays, doing blood tests, billing, dispensing medicine, and every one of them is constantly on the go. A leisurely life like making a cup of tea and reading the newspaper is simply impossible in an infectious disease hospital."
Lin Sanqi's heartfelt words immediately impressed the two thousand medical staff in the audience.
"This leader is good and can understand us."
"Yes, with these heartwarming words, the infectious disease doctor should just do it."
"If I don't go to hell, who will? The red star shines, illuminating my way to death."
The staff below the stage were discussing, while Lin Sanqi turned off the microphone and discussed with Shen Guoming next to him:
“Director Shen, since we have money, I want to establish a system to give infectious disease doctors an additional subsidy. What do you think?”
Shen Guoming nodded slightly: "It is appropriate to give appropriate subsidies. How much are you going to give?"
Bao'an County is rich now. Of the 1.1 billion US dollars in loans, 300 million was paid to the superiors, the Lin family took 100 million, and nominally paid back a loan of 500 million. So theoretically, there are still 200 million US dollars in the account that can be used.
Because all payments were transferred through Citibank in the United States and HSBC in Hong Kong, the specific figures were unknown in China, and Lin Sanqi would not check their accounts.
Only Shen Guoming and Lin Sanqi knew that the funds currently available in Bao'an County were actually US$700 million, a figure that exceeded the national treasury reserves.
Therefore, Shen Guoming would naturally not be stingy in giving subsidies to infectious disease doctors.
Lin Sanqi thought for a moment:
"Too much is not good, too little is meaningless. How about this? The average doctor's salary is about 40 yuan now. I will double it, giving them an extra 40 yuan a month. This subsidy will be provided by Bao'an County. What do you think?"
I originally wanted to give them food subsidies, but I was worried that it wouldn't reach the doctors and nurses. So I can only give them cash. With the money, I can buy more food on the black market."
Shen Guoming added:
"In some places, people can't buy things even if they have money, so we give them a 40 yuan subsidy. In addition, before the Spring Festival, we give them some physical goods, such as candy, bacon, rice oil, etc. We send them directly to their workplaces without going through local governments."
Lin Sanqi gave a thumbs up:
"Okay, let's do as you say. Once the salaries of infectious disease doctors reach the highest standards in the country, everyone will envy them and rush to become infectious disease doctors. Then our training goal will be achieved."
The two sat up straight.
Director Zhao, who knew Lin Sanqi quite well, said to Director Li next to him:
"Just wait and see. Comrade Lin Sanqi is definitely going to make a big move. He's leading a project that will definitely not let anyone suffer any loss."
Sure enough, Lin Sanqi turned on the microphone again and said to the two thousand medical staff below:
“I just discussed it with Director Shen. Given the special nature of infectious disease doctors, they are more dangerous and more tiring than other departments.
Therefore, Bao'an County has decided to provide a monthly subsidy of 40 yuan to every doctor, nurse, medical technician, and caregiver at the Infectious Disease Hospital.
Boom~~~The scene exploded all of a sudden.
"Is there such a good thing?"
"Oh my god, 40 yuan more a month, so my income is higher than the dean's?"
"This is equivalent to being promoted five levels in a row. Can I get the salary of level 18?"
"How rich is Bao'an County?"
When Lin Sanqi saw that the people below had changed from their previous dullness to become lively and energetic, he knew that he had hit the bull's eye.
So I continued to add fuel to the fire:
"In addition, every year before the Spring Festival, we mail the latest tuberculosis guidelines and various infectious disease knowledge to medical staff to help them learn advanced technologies and consolidate their medical knowledge.
At the same time, we will also mail a gift worth no less than 300 RMB every year. It’s hard to say what it is, but it could be a radio or a large piece of bacon.
Boom boom boom~~~Now everyone was fried until tender inside and burnt outside.
"Wow, Baoan County is such a great place."
"Who says being an infectious disease doctor is bad? The salary and benefits are doubled."
"That's right. Now Old Sun from our unit is going to regret it. He refused to go to the infectious disease department and pushed me there. It can be considered a blessing in disguise for me."
Lin Sanqi waited for everyone to quiet down for a while before asking:
"Comrades, can you give me a round of applause now?"
Hahahaha~~~
Everyone on and off the stage burst into laughter, and then there was really a thunderous applause.
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Lin Sanqi really wanted to stand up, drive the Red Flag car over, stand on it and shout in a Funan accent:
"Long live the people~~~"
"Comrades, thank you for your hard work~~~"
The applause lasted for three full minutes before it stopped. Lin Sanqi then said earnestly:
"Comrades, we are doctors, and doctors must shoulder their responsibilities. When the lives and health of the people are threatened, no matter how hard or difficult it is, we must charge to the front lines and live up to the white coats we wear.
As leading cadres, it is our responsibility to protect the interests of medical workers so that you can go to the battlefield without any worries. This also reflects whether a cadre is responsible.
So I give you the highest material security and the highest income in the health system. Then, it depends on you how to become an excellent infectious disease doctor who serves the people wholeheartedly.
Our goal is the same: we must become the first country in the world to eliminate tuberculosis. We provide the bullets, you fight the battles, and if we work together, we will surely win!
Papapapa~~~
At this time, the applause from the two thousand people in the audience was even more enthusiastic, more sincere, and more resolute!!!
