Li Chu heard Zhao Zhijun tell him about the hospital's solution after he returned to his office from the inpatient department.
After listening, he nodded repeatedly, saying that this was the best solution at the moment.
Dr. Meng did make some mistakes in his procedures, but no one can say for sure what he was thinking at the time, and the patient agreed to have his clothes removed.
We can't just give him a punishment for something that's not true.
It's great that the hospital stepped in and took responsibility for this; it greatly reassured the other doctors and relieved them of any hesitation.
As for whether the female patient and her family can accept this result, that's up to them. If it really doesn't work, then like Dean Du said, go ahead and sue, and see what kind of response the higher-ups will give you.
"Zhijun, do you want to go down and train?"
Li Chu looked at his assistant and suddenly asked a question that caught Zhao Zhijun off guard.
"Uh... Director, why are you suddenly asking that?"
Zhao Zhijun has been following Li Chu for several years. Last year, he was awarded the rank of 21 cents and also served as the head of the Fourth Secretariat Section of the General Office of the Headquarters. Of course, he did not work there. This section was dedicated to serving Li Chu. If there was anything at the headquarters, the staff who stayed there would contact Zhao Zhijun directly and have him report to the leader.
“You are still young and educated. It would be a waste for you to stay with me. If you are willing, I can arrange for you to go to a logistics base in the suburbs of Beijing, or you can go to a field army if you want.”
Following the leader's instructions, one will definitely be given a good position after being assigned to a lower-level position. This is the final and best choice for many people who do this kind of work.
Few people are willing to do servant work all the time.
but……
"Director, can I continue to work for you? To be honest, I don't want to go down."
"Don't you need to go back and discuss it with your partner?"
"No need. I usually don't talk to her about work-related matters, and Xiaona has always been very supportive of me working alongside you."
Both he and Tian Jun wanted to follow him, but neither was willing to go down and train.
Li Chu smiled and shook his head: "Okay, I understand. Then go to work."
"yes"
He sat down behind his desk and took out a stack of documents from his bag to look at.
The cancer research project I'm currently working on has been approved for almost a year now, and it's time to write a report to report to my superiors, at least to let them know where the money has been spent.
In the past two days, he has communicated with the headquarters and the general manager, and rejected all subsequent meeting and cooperation applications submitted by research institutes, pharmaceutical companies, and even hospitals.
He doesn't need to cooperate with any organization right now; we can discuss it later if there's a need in that area.
As the initiator and leader of this project, he was given a great deal of power, so his opinions were very important and received the support of the leadership.
Military hospitals have their own unique characteristics; they can conduct research behind closed doors while outsiders can only watch helplessly.
It's not that he's arrogant enough to think he can understand this research without any external help; it's just that the time isn't right yet. Only when their group has accumulated data from hundreds or thousands of patients will it be possible to start collaborating with external organizations in this area.
The current situation is that as long as there are enough patients and enough time, this place can keep accepting patients. Unlike Western medicine, which requires hospitalization, here you can just take your medicine home after your consultation and come back for a follow-up appointment.
This way, there will be no worry about a shortage of hospital beds.
Although we do consult with patients about their willingness to undergo surgery, not many agree.
He had just criticized Qiao Dongsheng, the deputy director sent by the surgery department.
The patient who came in this morning was a 70-year-old man, and Deputy Director Qiao asked him if he was willing to undergo surgery.
Li Chu didn't say anything in front of the patient. After the patient and his family took the prescription to the front clinic to pick up the medicine, he said somewhat angrily, "Deputy Director Qiao, I can understand your feelings, but this person is seventy years old, and you still asked him questions. What are you thinking?"
At such an advanced age, have you considered the risk of him not surviving the surgery? Even assuming the surgery is successful, how many more years do you think you can extend his life? A hundred years?
We are dealing with living, breathing human beings, not lab rats. As doctors, we should try our best to consider things from the patient's perspective, rather than just thinking about our own research data.
If I were a Western medicine doctor, I would have told that old man to go home and enjoy his final days, instead of suffering inhuman torment in the hospital.
Li Chu's words made Qiao Dongsheng realize that he had indeed been somewhat reckless, and he readily admitted his mistake.
"I learned a lot from the director's perspective. I still have a lot to learn."
"Stop giving me that nonsense. I understand that you surgeons want to do more hands-on work, which can indeed greatly improve your practical skills. However, there are many diseases that do not require surgery. We cannot use patients' bodies as cadavers just to make ourselves progress quickly."
That day I personally witnessed a young doctor from your surgery department encouraging a patient with chronic appendicitis to have surgery, saying it would solve the problem once and for all. Is that something a doctor should say? Is the appendix really completely useless inside the body?
I was completely stunned. I really couldn't understand which teacher could have produced such a good student.
Not to mention Li Chu, even Qiao Dongsheng himself was stunned. Was this guy an idiot? How could a doctor in their department talk to a patient like that?
"Dongsheng, young doctors need to improve their professional skills, but they also need to improve their mindset. Doctors are not butchers, and we are no longer in the days when we would just cut wherever it hurts."

This is because they have known each other for a long time, and although Li Chu has been promoted, he is still working at the hospital. If someone else of the same level had said these words, Qiao Dongsheng would have been very upset.
Of course, if it were a different leader, they wouldn't have said these things to Qiao Dongsheng; they would have gone directly to the dean or political commissar.
"Director, I've got it. I'll go over and tell Lao Song later to organize all the doctors in the department to seriously study the professional ethics of doctors."
...
Sitting behind his desk, Li Chu pulled himself out of his thoughts and turned his gaze back to the stack of documents, carefully flipping through them.
