Chapter 886: [886] Complete the mission and leave Chapter 886: [886] Complete the mission and leave Vaseline Gauze turned out to have this use. Several dical students listened to the teacher’s experience talk and felt enlightened.
On the contrary, Yao Jie nearly rolled her eyes upon hearing that oil gauze strips were needed. She had forgotten which box she had put them in at the bottom. She could only rummage through a dozen boxes, sweating and turning everything upside down.
“Yao Jie,” Xie Wanying noticed her unusual expression and told her, “I stuffed a box of Vaseline Gauze next to the one against the wall. Take it out and let Teacher Nie use it first.”
Xie Xie! Yao Jie gave her a grateful look and hurriedly ran into the office to fetch the item.
Following the teacher’s instructions, Xie Wanying placed Vaseline Gauze in the child’s wound, and after finishing up, she told the family, “You need to bring the child in for a dressing change every day.”
“Are you going to be the one who changes it?” the child’s grandfather asked her.
“No, they are volunteer doctors. They are usually busy in the hospitals in the big cities. Today they only ca once, and it was not easy for them to treat your grandson’s wound. In the future, you need to bring your grandson to Doctor Liu to continue injections and dressing changes,” Village Chief Li explained to the grandfather, “And the doctors told you earlier, you need to take your grandson to the hospital to check his teeth again. He’s ill in the mouth too, and it needs treatnt.”
“Could you continue to look after my grandson’s teeth?” the child’s grandfather asked, trusting only the doctors before him.
They couldn’t; they weren’t dental specialists, how could they possibly treat teeth. Dental dicine has its own field and specificity; you can’t just do as you please. Even administering anesthesia is different.
And so, Village Chief Li made arrangents for soone to accompany the child and Grandpa Wang to the county hospital for a dental visit, after the child’s fever reduced following the injection.
With a long line of patients waiting, and after taking care of this patient, the group of doctors hurried back to their stations to continue seeing other patients.
Ti flew by, and before anyone realized it, five or six hours had passed.
Night had fallen.
The darkness could not stop the continuous flow of villagers wanting to see a doctor. So from the neighboring village had received the news too late and were now rushing to get in line, hoping for a check-up from the Guoxie doctors.
The villagers’ enthusiasm didn’t wane; the village committee set up electrical sockets and light bulbs in the office to illuminate the volunteer dical stations.
Around 7:30 p.m., seeing that the doctors hadn’t had ti to eat, Village Chief Li and the other officials discussed how to end the volunteer clinic. After all, there were too many patients for the doctors to see in one day.
How to persuade the villagers to leave was a problem.
“It’s raining,” soone in the line of villagers called out.
Such sumr rains ca without warning. A few large raindrops fell, and then a heavy downpour swept in with the wind. Having spent most of the day in Shier Zhuang, no one knew that this rain had already passed through the county earlier that afternoon.
With the rain, the crowd dispersed.
The villagers all ran ho to escape the downpour.
The volunteer dical team took the opportunity to pack up. Since they needed to rush back to the county, the doctors didn’t eat at the village committee but hurriedly bid farewell to Village Chief Li and a group of other village officials.
“Xie Xie, Village Chief Li, see you next ti.” He Guangyou, following Tao Zhijie’s instructions, thanked the village committee on behalf of the new leadership for their strong support of the volunteer clinic.
“No, we are the ones who should be thankful to you doctors. You have co down to our village to see patients regardless of your exhaustion, and it’s been hard work,” Village Chief Li shook hands with every doctor to express his gratitude, “If you’re not eating here, at least take so eggs and stead buns to fill your stomachs on the way.”
