In any unit or enterprise, there will always be the majority of grassroots employees. This is an eternal and unchanging fact, and the same is true for hospitals.
In any hospital, there are always the most junior doctors, that is, the doctors below the attending physician level. And among the doctors below the attending physician level, interns always make up a large proportion.
Especially in a well-known tertiary-level A hospital like Tanghua, there are quite a large number of interns, resident doctors, and exchange doctors every year. The internship building of Tanghua Hospital is where these interns, resident doctors, and exchange doctors are accommodated, and it can also be said to be a temporary dormitory.
The reason why this building is called the internship building is because a large number of interns live in it every year.
Tanghua Hospital has more than 30 departments, large and small, including outpatient department, gastroenterology department, cardiovascular department, nephrology department, respiratory department, hematology department, endocrinology department, and traditional Chinese medicine department. Even if there are only five or six interns in each department every year, the total number is a huge group of one or two hundred people, not to mention that there are more than that many interns.
Including the resident doctors and exchange doctors, there are three to five hundred people every year, or even more.
Generally, undergraduate medical students in a five-year program begin their internship period in the second semester of their senior year, which is around January each year, and the internship period is one year.
It is May now, and a large number of interns and residents live in the internship building.
Fortunately, it was three o'clock in the afternoon and most of the doctors were still at work. There were not many people in the practice building. Yun Heng and Ren Xuedong found the practice building and asked along the way before they found their dormitory.
There are only ten people in this training class, and it lasts for one month, which is not a long time, so the dormitories for the training class are all on the second floor of the internship building, near the end of the corridor, with five connected dormitories.
Ren Xuedong and Yun Heng entered the dormitory. The environment of the dormitory was pretty good. It was not too big, with a bunk bed and two desks. It was quite clean.
"Tanghua's internship dormitory is much better than the one in our provincial hospital."
While helping Yun Heng put away his luggage, Ren Xuedong said, "Teacher Yun, you sleep on the lower bunk and I'll sleep on the upper bunk."
"It's all right. I don't care."
Yun Heng is not picky about where he lives. When he was in college, he always lived in the school dormitory, which was a four-person room.
Speaking of this, we have to talk about Xu Bo again. Given Xu Bo's family background and the fact that he is a native of Xihua City, Xu Bo could actually live outside during his college years.
According to Xu Bo, he initially lived in the dormitory just to make friends.
College classmates, several roommates in a dormitory often have the closest relationship, and their relationship is often better than that of classmates.
Xu Bo lived in the dormitory just to make friends. Later, Xu Bo also planned to rent a house outside, but Yun Heng felt that it was more convenient to stay at school. It was much closer whether it was for self-study or going to the library. Xu Bo accommodated Yun Heng and lived in the dormitory for eight years. It was really true love.
"Isn't the internship dormitory at the Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine as good as here?"
Yun Heng asked.
"Our Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine doesn't have a dedicated internship dormitory, so we found a cheap apartment near the hospital and shared a dormitory with several people. There are only two hospitals in Xihua City that have dedicated internship dormitories: Tanghua and Xihua. But I don't think Tanghua can have two people in a room. We must be receiving special treatment."
Yun Heng nodded, thinking that Ren Xuedong’s analysis might be correct.
For a hospital, interns are just passers-by. The dormitories are permanent, but the interns are transient. A hospital of Tanghua's size should have 200 to 300 interns every year, but the number of people who are likely to stay in the end is definitely no more than 20, or even less, less than 10%.
The larger the hospital, the less human rights the young doctors have. The residents are already miserable, not to mention the interns who are just passing through.
For hospitals, interns are free labor, and that kind of free labor that is not appreciated. Interns without clinical experience play a smaller role in the hospital than senior nurses. Nurses with a little seniority can order the interns around.
The dormitory only provides beds, without bedding or other daily necessities.
After putting away their luggage, Yun Heng and Ren Xuedong planned to go to the supermarket downstairs to buy daily necessities. Fortunately, tomorrow is May Day, and it is already a bit hot in Xihua City. If it is not raining, many people on the street have started to wear coats. It is quite easy to just buy a set of bedding and get by for a month.
As soon as Yun Heng and Ren Xuedong left the dormitory, they saw someone opening the door next door.
The person who opened the door was a young man in his thirties, pulling a suitcase. When he saw Yun Heng and Ren Xuedong coming out, he smiled politely and said, "Are you also in the teaching class?"
"Yes, that's right."
Yun Heng nodded.
"It seems that we will all be classmates from now on."
The young man didn't rush to open the door. He put his suitcase at the door, walked over, extended his hand, and introduced himself: "Lin Yonggang, from the Municipal Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital."
"Ren Xuedong, from the Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This is Doctor Yun Hengyun."
Ren Xuedong took the initiative to extend his hand and shook hands with Lin Yonggang, and introduced Yun Heng by the way.
“Everyone will study in the teaching class in the future and take care of each other.”
Lin Yonggang smiled and thought that Yun Heng was also from the Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, so he didn't ask any more questions.
“Take care of each other.”
Ren Xuedong also smiled and nodded.
"You guys came early, are you planning to go out for a walk?"
"Let's go downstairs and buy some daily necessities." Ren Xuedong said.
"That's perfect, wait for me."
