"Did the attendant of bed 49 give any medical instructions?" Sun Yubo asked weakly.
"No." Xie Wanying said, "It's blank. Only the patient's name is written on it."
"No one has ever briefed me on this matter!" Sun Yubo angrily called Doctor Wu to question him, "You were on duty in Group 4, and you didn't tell me about the situation in Bed 49?"
Dr. Wu responded: "You didn't call me, so I thought you knew."
"Who?"
"It seems to be a senior executive of the National Energy Group that sponsors our medical school. He is too busy at work, and he has already informed the director and deputy director that he will have to wait until the evening to be admitted to our hospital. Our hospital has this rule that patients must stay in the hospital after completing the admission procedures and cannot leave."
"You didn't get a doctor's order?"
"What medical advice? I haven't seen the patient yet. You can see the patient tonight and see if he needs any treatment. If not, we can come back tomorrow to deal with him."
"What's going on?"
...
...
"Appendicitis is suspected."
"Appendicitis can be serious or minor!" Sun Yubo jumped on the spot.
"I know it clearly. The decision was made by the leader in question and he agreed to do this. What does it have to do with me? It may not be serious. There is no perforation and it has not reached the stage of diffuse peritonitis." said Dr. Wu.
"What does he need from me when he comes in?"
"I told you, if you think he needs emergency treatment when he comes in, then treat him urgently. If not, we can wait until we come back tomorrow." Doctor Wu said.
Isn't this just nonsense? Sun Yubo cursed in his heart.
"You didn't tell me about how many beds you have left?" Sun Yubo turned to ask the student.
"Two, Teacher Sun." Xie Wanying told the teacher about the two beds at the back, hoping to help the teacher calm down. "The old man in bed 52 has not had his tube removed. I don't know who told him to walk around the ward at night, saying that this would help remove the tube earlier."
"He's looking for trouble!" Sun Yubo glared.
"The people in his ward need to rest and sleep. So, I suggest that Teacher Sun prescribe a sleeping pill for him."
"open!"
"The last bed, bed 62, is a single room. When I went to check on him, his family was there and locked the door to prevent us from entering. The nurse wanted to check on him but couldn't. The nurse said that the family said that there was a monitor and we didn't need to go in because we were afraid of disturbing their rest. His family wouldn't listen to the nurse. Teacher, you'd better explain this to the family. It is necessary for nurses to go in and check in at night. There may be changes in the patient's condition that the monitor cannot detect, and there may be alarms that the family can't hear."
The VIP's family members were making a scene in the ward.
A look of despair flashed across Sun Yubo's face.
"What's wrong with bed 62? Has he had surgery?"
"It seemed like he came in for a check-up on the second day of hospitalization," said Xie Wanying.
Sun Yubo put his hands on his waist and took a deep breath. Those who could stay in a single room must be rich, and doctors might not be able to afford to offend them. But he had to knock on the door because he had a responsibility.
Take the student to bed 62 and knock on the door.
After a while, a woman answered from the door: "Who is it?"
"It's the doctor."
The door opened, and a woman in her forties stood inside. She looked at the three doctors and asked, "What's going on?"
"You can't lock the door at night. Medical staff need to check on the patients. Do you understand?" Sun Yubo educated the family members.
It is very important to arrange medical staff to check on each patient during the night shift, otherwise the medical staff will be exhausted from the unnecessary night shifts.
