My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 199 117: First Experience in Orthopedics, External F

"To ensure fairness, for the first three days, you will take turns entering the operating room in batches. Those who perform well will be kept by the lead surgeon in the operating room. Don't be discouraged if you get eliminated. Surgery is not the only way out. Even if you are assigned to manage patients in the inpatient departnt, as long as you perform well, there is still a chance to compete for surgical training opportunities."

For a surgeon who can't perform surgeries, the only other option is to choose the more difficult academic research path.

However, very few people have made a na for themselves in this field.

A close observation of the renowned doctors in each surgical departnt will reveal that each of them excels in performing surgeries. Their academic achievents are also closely related to their surgical skills.

After all, research stems from practice.

"Anyway, everyone has the sa opportunity, so I've just randomly assigned your tasks for the first three days."

Doctor Yang directly divided the eighteen data sheets into three parts.

"Xiao He, read out the nas of the six people who will work in the operating room today."

He handed the first part of the data sheets to the young doctor.

"Fan Wen, Wang Bin, Jin Mingxi..."

He read out a total of six nas.

Zhou Can probably did not make the list for the first batch because he handed in his form relatively late.

This was also good, giving him an additional day or two to familiarize himself with the Orthopedics environnt.

He was very clear that not being selected for the operating room would definitely impact his professional growth.

Although his surgical skills were very strong, capable of overshadowing everyone else, he knew that even when a lion fights a rabbit, it needs to utilize its full strength to ensure a secure victory.

"Those who had their nas called just now, proceed to the operating room for work. The remaining twelve, stay here in the inpatient departnt. Your main task for the first three days is to familiarize yourselves with the entire process of a patient's admission to discharge. Bed managent, writing dical records, assisting in surgeries, rounding, and such tasks shouldn't need further explanation, you've already learned them during your internship phase."

The tasks perford during internship and residency stages are different.

It's like nursery school is mainly about learning to adhere to the school's regulations and the basics of phonics and numbers from 1 to 10. But in the first grade of elentary school, children are expected to not only recognize but also write phonics, combine sounds to read, and start learning how to write simple Chinese characters. In math, they begin learning addition and subtraction within 10 and understand larger numbers.

It's the sa for doctors.

Progressing step by step, enhancing professional capabilities gradually.

Resident Doctors need to learn to independently handle certain risky tasks.

For example, bed managent.

If an intern finds a patient coughing violently or complaining of severe stomach pain, what to do? Definitely call for a senior doctor to handle it!

If a Resident Doctor encounters the sa situation, they must learn to diagnose by themselves.

Calling a senior doctor for every little issue would surely earn a scolding.

"Xiao He, please ask Mr. Xiang to co over!"

Doctor Yang instructed.

Mr. Xiang is not so company CEO but the Chief Resident.

That's the general term used in hospitals.

Many newcors believe the Chief Resident holds a high position, but that's not the case.

Although the Chief Resident often scolds the residents and interns, directing them in various tasks,

their position is actually much lower than that of an attending physician.

Typically, the role is rotated annually and is considered a tough job.

You have to stay in the hospital on duty.

Those who beco Chief Resident share so common traits: over three years of experience as a Resident Doctor and having undertaken further training.

Indeed, this is also a necessary step to becoming an attending physician.

Usually, one would go for further training for half a year to a year, return to serve as Chief Resident for one year, and then take the exam for promotion to attending physician. Upon passing, one will receive the attending physician's certificate. If the hospital has available positions, you will be hired as an attending physician.

However, given that there are limited hiring positions, if not appointed within a year, there's no need to worry.

At this stage, as long as you don't cause major problems, becoming an attending physician is almost guaranteed.

You may just have to wait in line.

It's worth ntioning that the difficulty of the attending physician exam is not very high, and many can pass on their first attempt.

What is truly challenging is taking the dical licensing exam after one year of graduation. The pass rate for that is quite low, with typically one in five passing.

If you don't pass on the first year, there's an opportunity to retake it the next year.

It's not ant to discourage those who didn't pass,

but the probability is that if you failed the first ti, you'd likely fail the second, or the third ti as well...

The smart move would be a prompt shift to administration or a change of profession.

After all, age is a factor that cannot be ignored.

While so may graduate at 24 and get certified around 26, those with less aptitude failing to pass continue to age and can quickly approach their 30s. The pressure at that age is imnse.

For those who are not cut out for it, cutting losses decisively is the smartest move.

Soon after, a man in his early thirties hurriedly walked in.

This man was of dium height, with thick and bushy eyebrows like two black brooms above his eyes.

From the standpoint of facial physiognomy, such a person tends to be impatient and rough in character.

"Mr. Xiang, these twelve individuals are now under your arrangent. After three days, once the operating room side has made their selections, you can then make long-term residency arrangents for them."

Doctor Yang said to the man.

"No problem!"

Dr. Xiang's gaze swept over Zhou Can and the others, and with a grand wave of his hand,

"Follow !"

His style of work was truly decisive and swift, without any dragging or delay.

Zhou Can and the others followed him to the wards.

There are nine wards in the Orthopedics inpatient section, and the rest are open bed areas. In total, there are at least over three hundred beds by a conservative estimate.

This scale is quite daunting.

Many smaller third-tier hospitals only have a total of around 500 beds. So even have to inflate the number of beds to qualify for third-tier status.
