It was not until 3 a.m. that the ergency center lobby gradually quieted down, although there were still three patients waiting for an available operating room to undergo surgery.
Liu Banxia stretched lazily, finally having so ti to check today’s system rewards.
There really weren’t a lot—the injuries were mostly obvious during the initial examination, and the total experience points barely reached 600. However, there were quite a few orthopedics cases with various fractures, and resetting them earned him over 1,000 points.
This highlights the difference between regular diagnosis rewards and surgery rewards. As long as the level of surgery is comparable, the reward from a single operation can surpass the total earned from a night’s worth of work like this.
"Banxia, take a break as well. Today’s patient admission was very successful," said Chen Zhenxing as he sat beside him.
"The prediction was still quite off. I didn’t expect so many patients would need surgery, otherwise, I would have contacted soone earlier," said Liu Banxia after taking a sip of water.
"The flaws don’t obscure the rits. Overall, the performance of the entire ergency center today was comndable. Whether it’s the leaders or the other staff, every dical and nursing staff mber displayed the quality expected of them," said Chen Zhenxing.
"With such a large imdiate patient intake, including so many critically ill patients, the entire admission process was conducted orderly and every patient was properly placed."
"And not to ntion, among these patients, there was even an HIV carrier. It was thanks to our tily feedback that we heightened the staff’s vigilance and avoided worse consequences."
"Director, the initial admissions were managed by Qi Wentai. I was just assisting. It was only later when Qi Wentai needed to go into surgery that I took over," said Liu Banxia sowhat embarrassedly.
Undoubtedly, the success of this admission is a significant achievent. It’s not only an honor for the entire ergency center but will also reflect on individuals.
He certainly doesn’t want the credit to all go to himself since he didn’t contribute much in this admission.
"Oh, showing so humility now, are we?" teased Chen Zhenxing.
"Credit will go where it’s due. If it’s not yours, wanting it won’t make give it to you. The ergency center showing such performance really makes one gratified."
"Your contribution lies not in the admission performance this ti, but in the interns you trained. Just think, what would the result have been today without their ability to handle things independently?"
"I really can’t imagine it. Even if we transferred everyone from the inpatient departnt, we might still not manage today’s situations well."
"Ergency admissions are really very different from our usual ones. Even with superb surgical skills and dical expertise, one might not necessarily handle ergency admissions appropriately."
"This is also why the hospital has allocated so many resources to the ergency center because training ergency personnel is not easy. The six interns you trained, including Linlin from cardiothoracic surgery, are all competent."
"This is your contribution. Is contributing to training talent for the hospital a small matter? Today, what I saw was the overall performance of the ergency center."
"Faced with such a large ergency admission situation, even if Shuwen wasn’t there, you didn’t panic. This isn’t arrogance—it’s confidence. A good ergency departnt, a team of professional ergency personnel, can save many more lives when accidents occur."
Liu Banxia nodded modestly, realizing his perspective was sowhat limited and hadn’t elevated it to a higher place to view the issues. This is the so-called big picture mindset, and he really fell short in this regard.
"Is there any upcoming surgery that needs you?" Chen Zhenxing asked again.
Liu Banxia shook his head, "Two orthopedic cases, one cardiothoracic. This accident was really too big; two couldn’t be saved, and one didn’t make it off the table. Six are still being resuscitated, and three are waiting for surgery."
"And this is just here; other hospitals will have cases too. There are already deceased patients. I really don’t know how many families this accident will devastate."
"Didn’t the traffic police who ca tell you?" Chen Zhenxing asked, surprised.
"What happened? I was busy performing checks; there were also many regular injuries, and it was too chaotic to chat," said Liu Banxia.
Chen Zhenxing chuckled, "Our ergency center is the main force receiving patients from this car accident. After the third accident occurred, the number of victims suddenly increased significantly."
"The nearby hospital is relatively small, while our second hospital, though farther away, can still receive patients quickly if the speed is increased. That’s why our intake is higher than other hospitals, even surpassing the municipal hospital."
"But as you said, the incident is indeed significant, with deaths not expected to be under ten. The overall patient intake data across hospitals has not been consolidated yet, and the casualties and other economic losses are imasurable."
"Do you rember the last rescue you were involved in at the tunnel? This scene is far more tragic than that. Seeing the patients lying here, you can tell our performance has been very impressive."
Hearing this, Liu Banxia felt sowhat relieved.
He had thought the ergency center of the second hospital was the last resort, only taking patients from places that couldn’t accommodate them. If that were the case, the scale of the accident would be indescribably terrifying.
Having fewer injured is at least sothing to be celebrated.
"Director, the reporter from City TV has arrived," Liu Banxia said as he glanced at Qu Feng and his team coming in and stood up.
Qu Feng also saw him and led the team straight over.
"Reporter Qu, this is our hospital’s Chief Director Chen, who rushed over from ho upon hearing the news to oversee the work. Our hospital’s intake work is now completed, with just three patients waiting for surgery, and they are not very serious."
Liu Banxia introduced briefly.
"Chief Director Chen..."
"Reporter Qu, it’s better to interview Director Liu from our ergency center. He’s been watching over from start to finish," interrupted Chen Zhenxing, waving his hand as Qu Feng began to speak.
"Chief Director, please have rcy on and let rest for a while. I’ve been here for over three hours since coming from ho, and I’m really exhausted," said Liu Banxia, turning his head and decisively running away.
Is he kidding? With such a big accident at such a critical ti, how could he accept an interview when his rank isn’t up to it? Regardless of whether Chen Zhenxing cares or not, there’s no way this task would fall to him.
"How about you guys? No chance to go into surgery yet? Shall we make up for it now?" Liu Banxia asked upon reaching the intern team.
"Teacher Liu, we also feel accomplished downstairs," said Chen Dongi.
"When so many patients were first brought over, so by ambulance and so by police cars, it really scared stiff. But in an instant, everyone managed to categorize the patients properly, and it wasn’t chaotic. I found it amazing."
"It’s not as exaggerated as you say. Everyone’s just more experienced with accumulated experience. It’s not only the doctors who contributed, our nurse sisters also played a big role," said Liu Banxia with a smile.
"Yes, yes, Sister Qian was amazing. At first, many people were clamoring, not seriously injured but wanting priority treatnt. Then Sister Qian stepped in and settled it with a few words," said Zhang Xiaoman, the excited internal dicine intern.
Liu Banxia looked at Zhou Qian with a smile.
"Dr. Liu, it’s not as exaggerated as they make it out. Sister Li couldn’t handle it, so we had to maintain order," said Zhou Qian, slightly embarrassed.
"You guys don’t know, there was a ti when an infusion tube malfunctioned. Without Dr. Liu saving , I probably wouldn’t be working here today."
"Why bring up old, trivial matters? I just had a chat with the director, and he’s very pleased with our ergency center’s performance," said Liu Banxia with a smile.
"I can’t guarantee anything else, but this month’s bonus will definitely satisfy everyone. This ti, we were also overloaded with admissions, and holding up like we did wasn’t easy. This is everyone’s collective credit."
"The nurses demonstrated their subjective initiative, and the interns weren’t timid either. This is a valuable experience. Xu Yino and their group have been here for so long, and it’s their first large-scale ergency, too."
"Right now, the rough estimate of injured admitted to our ergency center exceeds thirty, right? In my ti at the Second Hospital, I’ve never experienced this."
"Dr. Liu, thirty-six," Zhou Qian said with a bright smile.
"Impressive, that you can even rember! Take a break for a while. Once the patients are out from the operating room, the ICU won’t have enough room, and we’ll have to continue fighting," said Liu Banxia.
"Teacher Liu, is it just the patients in the operating room left?" asked Chen Dongi.
"How could it be that easy for you? You still need to keep an eye on these patients brought in today, plus those lining up for a CT scan," said Liu Banxia.
"Also, many accident patients might not show obvious symptoms at first, and in panic, their perception is diminished. So, even with regular patients, you should remain vigilant."
"Uh... Why is Reporter Qu coming over again? You guys take over; I’ll make another round among the patients. Just speak candidly if they interview you."
After saying this, Liu Banxia nimbly sneaked towards the patient beds again.
Currently, the beds in the hall are occupied by patients with minor injuries, and they need to be observed until at least tomorrow morning, undergoing a full examination before they can leave.
"Where did Director Liu go?" asked Qu Feng as she ca over.
"I think he’s afraid of your interview," said Chen Dongi.
"This guy is so sly. Just wait, I’ll apply to Chief Director Chen for an exclusive interview," said Qu Feng helplessly.
Whether interns or nurses, they all found it amusing. Running from interviews, it seed, was only sothing Director Liu would do.
