My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 524 - 229: Love Competing the Most, The Battle of Fa

"Of course, nothing is absolute in the world, and we can’t give up eating for fear of choking. Sotis the cause of disease is clear, but the pathophysiological chanism is not; or there may be only symptoms without an identifiable cause. In such cases, symptomatic treatnt is a provisional asure. It can relieve the patient’s suffering and preserve their life as much as possible. One must avoid dogmatism in the practice of dicine."

Director Shang might have been worried about training Zhou Can into a blockhead, so he added another sentence.

Diagnosis and treatnt are extrely complex processes that must be approached with flexibility and adaptability.

People who only know how to apply formulas rigidly are not suited to be doctors.

Etiology, pathogenesis, syndros, and symptoms are different perspectives from which a disease is understood and reflected upon. This requires doctors to discerningly approach therapy, treatnt based on differentiation of syndros, and symptomatic treatnt in a flexible manner.

"Understood!"

Zhou Can nodded in acknowledgent.

He was never the type to act rigidly.

"As a residency trainee under my supervision, there aren’t any special requirents. All you need is to maintain a serious and responsible attitude. If you could add initiative and diligence on top of that, that would be even better."

The requirents set forth by Director Shang seed simple, but in reality, they were quite demanding.

The phrase ’serious and responsible’ alone is very difficult to live up to. Adding ’initiative and diligence’ makes it all the more challenging. It’s like doing the residency tasks well while also caring about the things a director would worry about.

"Later on, I’ll arrange for your departntal login account to be set up, allowing you to view the patient information of our group at any ti. When you have the ti, you could even check the patient information from other groups in the departnt. Feel free to ask if you have any questions."

This treatnt was basically the standard privilege Zhou Can got as he joined the new departnt.

For a common trainee, having a few words with a senior doctor would be enough to make their day.

Yet Zhou Can could consult the senior doctor at any ti.

"Next, let’s talk about your daily work schedule. For now, it will mainly involve checking nursing records, verifying test results, writing case reports, prescribing orders, and rounds—the usual procedures. Now that you are a trainee, you cannot be compared to interns who just arrived; you need to take on more work assignnts. For example, if a new patient is admitted to our group, they might randomly be assigned to one of you trainees or to an excellent intern for individual managent."

Interns generally don’t take on too much work.

Seniors wouldn’t just let them manage patients on their own, mostly out of fear of mishaps.

After all, interns are usually undergraduates who have just completed four years of dical theory at school. dical undergraduates typically start their internships at hospitals in their fifth year.

Tuya dical College is one of the top dical universities and has a symbiotic relationship with Tuya Hospital.

So of its outstanding fourth-year students get the opportunity to intern at Tuya General Hospital.

Those who are slightly less outstanding might end up interning at Tuya’s affiliated hospitals or elsewhere. Usually, the school arranges the internship postings for students.

When interns first enter a hospital, they are essentially novices.

The teaching doctors usually don’t manage their interns much; it’s not uncommon for soone to finish a yearlong internship without even knowing what their supervising doctor looks like. And this is not a tall tale, but a fact.

Interns are mostly supervised by resident doctors and the head of the residents.

So particularly excellent interns might catch a break by latching on to a senior doctor.

In short, interns don’t manage patients alone right after entering a hospital.

From when does this begin?

When a senior starts letting you write case reports on your own, it’s a sign they’re preparing you to manage patients alone.

Zhou Can is a trainee and already holds a dical Practitioner Certificate; managing patients alone is a given for him.

But he has just joined Digestive Internal dicine; after all, he should be allowed a couple of days to adapt!

Being well-known has its drawbacks.

Director Shang didn’t even ask if he could manage the patients well; he just went ahead and arranged it.

Moreover, from his tone, managing patients alone seems to be the very basics.

"I have many trainees, interns, resident doctors, and attending physicians under . If you want to get higher-level training opportunities, you need to strive for them yourself. Whoever performs well will be given more opportunities to grow, fair and square. If you want to get the chance to participate in interventional surgery, sit in on consultations, or even join research projects, you will need to perform well."

Fair competition is what Zhou Can liked the most.

Ordinary interns and trainees were almost sure to be utterly defeated by him in a competition.

Even resident doctors would find it hard to compete with him.

Perhaps so of the attending physicians could pose a challenge.

At least it used to be the case in all the surgical departnts, and now that he’s in Internal dicine, he wouldn’t dare to make bold claims without proof.

After getting access to the departntal login account, Zhou Can began earnestly reviewing patient case information within the group.

By going through the dical records others have written, one can generally infer a doctor’s level of excellence.

"Dr. Zhou, a patient who has undergone radical total gastrectomy has been admitted to bed 71, and Director Shang said you are to manage this case," said the nurse greeting him, who was quite beautiful and had particularly fair skin, with a sweet smile on her face.

"Alright, I’ll be right there."

Receiving a patient to manage on his own on the first day of work was probably Director Shang’s way of testing him.

All these senior doctors are sly old foxes.

Earning their praise and recognition is not an easy task.

No matter how big of a reputation Zhou Can had earned in other departnts, entering a new departnt or working under a new senior doctor ant that earning trust and recognition would require him to make an effort.
