Chapter 1059: Chapter 418: Director Han’s Sorrow—Use It When You Have To

From an outsider’s perspective, leadership seems glamorous, with a high status, getting the lion’s share of departntal benefits, and working leisurely, but the responsibilities on their shoulders are significant. When things happen, they must charge forward without hesitation.

For instance, when a patient needs resuscitation, it’s often the highest-ranked doctor who bears the main responsibility.

This includes directing on-site dical staff to imdiately perform life-saving asures on the patient, personally taking action, coordinating with other specialist doctors to assist, and so on. If there are issues during the resuscitation, the first to be held accountable is not the dical staff involved but the departnt head responsible for leadership.

On a regular day, there are incidents of dical staff in the Ergency Departnt being hit by family mbers or patients, but it’s extrely rare for a leader to be beaten to the point of fracture.

However, everyone knows that the Ergency, Intensive Care dicine Departnt, and Pediatrics are the three departnts most prone to getting hit.

Especially in the Ergency Departnt, where the number of patients seeking treatnt is high, it’s inevitable that so patients might feel unattended.

eting reasonable family mbers is not too bad; at most, they curse a few nasty words and leave with a complaint.

But if you encounter irritable family mbers or patients, it’s tragic. They lash out without a word, delivering punches directly to the face, hurling whatever they can get their hands on at dical staff.

Deputy Director Han encountered this type of extre family mber this ti.

“Those family mbers are really terrible. No matter what, they shouldn’t resort to hitting people! I think in the future, our Ergency Departnt should have a dedicated security guard on duty to prevent dical staff from being attacked.”

Zhou Can’s remark was not only ant to feel unjust for Deputy Director Han but also had the safety of all the departnt’s dical staff in mind.

“That’s a good suggestion, but I’m sure the hospital’s security departnt won’t agree. You saw for yourself today, if it weren’t for your tily intervention, my old bones wouldn’t have just one fracture.”

Deputy Director Han shook his head repeatedly and sighed.

From an outsider’s perspective, being a doctor seems like a good profession.

High social status, high inco, and a very stable inco.

Only after becoming a doctor do you realize how miserable this profession is. The children of doctors, if they’re good at academics, almost never continue in the dical field; they end up working in other industries.

Nowadays, larger hospitals basically require a graduate degree.

5 years for a bachelor’s, plus 3 years for a master’s, plus 3 years for a doctorate, plus 2 years of residency training, plus 2 to 4 years of specialized training, damn, you’re almost forty by the ti you can finally beco a junior doctor.

Then you start learning to place retractors, change dressings for patients, and write so slightly challenging dical orders.

After finally advancing to attending level and above, you’re burdened with research tasks, clinical dical tasks, and teaching tasks, like mountains weighing you down.

And there are various exams, almost like a lifelong learning system.

The key thing is that studying dicine is so hard, the returns are so pitifully small, and there’s no personal safety guarantee at all.

You have to be constantly vigilant about possibly being attacked by a family mber.

Co across soone holding a folded elongated newspaper, and a doctor will beco nervous. Who knows if there’s a waterlon knife wrapped inside?

Zhou Can is very grateful for studying free combat and kickboxing back in the day, and having kept up with training over the years.

Compared to other doctors, at least he’s never been afraid of being beaten by family mbers.

If anyone dares to make a move, he doesn’t mind using his right to self-defense.

“Is this the X-ray taken for you, Director Han?”

“Yes!”

Deputy Director Han nodded.

Zhou Can picked up the X-ray to take a look. The radius was fractured quite seriously. Additionally, there was so fracture in the ulna, but it wasn’t as severe.

The assaulter was quite ruthless.

“With it being this serious, splints alone might not be enough, right?”

“The Orthopedic Departnt is currently studying a treatnt plan. Considering my older age, it’s hard to decide on a surgical plan.”

Hearing this, Zhou Can’s brow slightly furrowed.

For fracture injuries, the sooner surgery is done, the more favorable the outco.

After surgery, the fracture ends can grow and heal properly. Otherwise, if it heals for a couple of days now and surgery is done later, it’ll be almost as if it grew in vain.

Plus, the pain endured during these two days would have been in vain.

“Did they ntion when they’ll co up with a surgical plan?” Zhou Can inquired.

It’s already after work hours, and the surgical plan probably won’t be discussed until tomorrow morning. That’s quick; taking two or three days would be normal.

After all, the Orthopedic Departnt is genuinely busy.

“Sigh, they haven’t ntioned it yet! Around five o’clock, I was worried Old Han might not withstand it due to his age, so I wanted the attending physician to perform surgery sooner. They told not to rush; there are still many scheduled surgeries ahead of us.”

Deputy Director Han didn’t want to speak out of face, but his wife couldn’t hold back and complained to Zhou Can.

“Speak less; the hospital has its regulations. We’re here, so we can’t expect special treatnt either.” Deputy Director Han must hold a good status at ho; most n wouldn’t dare to scold their wives.

It’s quite lantable.

He’s a highly senior chief physician and also a deputy director of a large departnt, considered a leader in the hospital.

Yet, in the Orthopedic Departnt, he only enjoys the treatnt of an average person.

Claiming not to demand special treatnt is rely self-deception.

Those with a bit of background or connections, who really follows the rules?

The rules are made by the strong for the weak to follow.

As for themselves, haha, there’s a long-standing unwritten rule: officials can set fires, but commoners aren’t allowed to light a lamp.

When it involves life and death, which strong one doesn’t try every ans to use all resources and enjoy the best dical care?
