Chapter 320 The Biggest Winner, Invitation from Pediatrics
Doctors are in a very special profession. Whether it is the assessment of job grades or promotions, great emphasis is placed on qualifications and years of work experience.
Why does a chief physician in his forties seem so young in the industry?
It’s because this profession requires perseverance.
Many young doctors present looked at Zhou Can with envy. Even a fool knew that through this expert consultation activity, Zhou Can had taken a big step forward.
Different from his previous implicit promotion in status , this time he was personally named and promoted by the dean at a public meeting. This promotion in status belongs to a promotion in status within the hospital.
It is like an ancient yamen runner who was very good at solving cases and was a big hit with the county magistrate. Whenever a new case occurred in the area under his jurisdiction, he would be asked to help. This yamen runner relied on this relationship, and no one dared to offend the other yamen runners in the county magistrate, and they all scrambled to curry favor with him.
But as soon as he walked out of the county government office, he immediately became an ordinary yamen runner.
Because others don’t know that he is a popular figure around the county magistrate!
Only the officials in the county government knew about it.
It is possible that only a small number of well-informed officials knew about his relationship with the county magistrate.
Later, this yamen runner made many contributions. The county magistrate, thinking of his loyalty and merits, reported the runner's merits when he went to the higher government office to report on his work.
After hearing about this, the superior prefect decided to reward this person.
Officials were sent to beat drums and gongs, carry the bestowed plaque, and bring the commendation documents, and announce along the way that the commendation documents and the plaque were delivered to the man's home.
If you publicize it in public and even boast about it at the official level, it would be really awesome.
Everyone knew that this yamen runner was extraordinary, and his official status was no longer that of an ordinary yamen runner, but a senior yamen runner who had been commended by the prefect.
From then on, other yamen runners would immediately feel inferior to him when they saw him.
Even the head constable of the next level, the clerk of the sixth room, and the assistant commander would greet him politely when they saw him.
Now that Zhou Can has been publicly praised and promoted by Dean Zhu, no one dares to treat him as a resident doctor anymore.
"Has Xiao Zhou passed the medical license exam?"
Dean Zhu's promotion is not something that can be done casually. It must be based on reason and in accordance with relevant procedures.
"It has passed."
Zhou Can answered honestly.
"Well, once you get your license, you're no longer a medical assistant, but a physician! Your residency training should still take more than a year to complete, right?"
Dean Zhu nodded happily with a kind look in his eyes.
"Yes! I didn't expect that you, who are so busy with all kinds of things, still remember the regular training time of a nobody like me!" Zhou Can showed a flattered and touched expression at the right time.
Life is like a play, whether you do well or not depends entirely on your acting skills.
Now is the critical moment for his promotion, so he must grasp the opportunity just right.
Some newbies in the workplace, because of their strong self-esteem, think that showing a smile to the leader and saying a few nice words is like insulting his personality. In fact, this is a very undesirable approach.
Leaders are also human beings, with emotions and desires.
Some necessary pleasant communication is very necessary.
It would be even better if you could establish a friendship or leave a good impression in the leader's mind.
Only in this way, when something good happens, your leader will think of you.
"Haha, do you think the dean is so high and mighty that he doesn't care about the medical staff at the grassroots level? I and other hospital leaders pay special attention to outstanding new doctors like you. We also pay attention to the lives and work of ordinary medical staff, but it's impossible to remember everyone. We pay more attention to them in a broad sense."
Dean Zhu was obviously very satisfied with Zhou Can's reaction.
He laughed happily twice.
Zhou Can noticed that even when Dean Zhu was explaining such a small matter, he was very sincere.
It is not as boastful as one might imagine, nor is it official language.
This made Zhou Can respect and like him more.
"Xiao Zhou! The hospital is going to give you some recognition and rewards this time. As for exceptional promotion, we are going to open a personal clinic number for you, so you can see patients in the clinic like senior residents and above. Since you are still in the residency training stage, in order not to affect your residency training results, we will give you the greatest freedom, and you can freely choose the department and time to see patients."
This is really awesome.
The competition in Tuya Hospital is extremely fierce. I don’t know how many graduate students and masters want to get outpatient numbers after completing their regular training, but are unable to do so.
Still waiting in line.
For a clinician, not being able to enter the operating room will at most only slightly affect his development.
For example, if there are two surgeons, with other conditions being equal, the one who performs surgery better will have higher weight and status.
Even if a doctor never performs surgery in his life, he can still be evaluated as a senior doctor and become a director. It will have some impact on his future, but it won't be too big.
But it would be tragic if a certain doctor could not issue an outpatient number.
Basically, you can just make it to retirement and at best be a chief physician.
And he is a chief physician with a very low status.
They can do logistics or odd jobs, and if they are lucky, they may be transferred to teaching and scientific research. However, even if they do teaching and scientific research, they are still at the bottom of the list.
This is not an exaggeration.
If you observe the doctors around you who are in their 40s or 50s and are still attending doctors, and who punch in on time at the department, you will find that many of them belong to this category.
It’s not that they don’t want to make progress, but the competition is too fierce.
I can't get in the queue.
In the end, I just accepted my fate. I'm old now, and I just want to live a peaceful and stable life until retirement. This is the best outcome.
There is one advantage of this type of person: as long as they are careful, they are generally not likely to get into accidents.
Speaking of outpatient clinics, I believe many doctors have heard a saying: going to college is to teach you how to turn the pages of a book.
Before the Medical Practitioners Law was promulgated, any medical student who had worked for a few days dared to go to the outpatient clinic to see patients. Especially in some small and medium-sized hospitals, the requirements were very relaxed.
I have just been working for a few days and it is common for me to encounter diseases that I don’t know how to treat while seeing patients.
What should I do?
This does not pose a problem for doctors.
Put a few clinical medicine books in the next room or inner room. When you encounter a disease that you don’t know how to treat, let the patient wait outside for a while while the doctor goes inside to look up the books.
After finding out the information, I learned and applied it immediately, and then went back to the outpatient department to treat the patient according to the procedure.
Nowadays, if a resident doctor wants to open an outpatient clinic, he or she needs at least three years of work experience. In other words, only senior resident doctors are qualified to apply.
Please note that this is just to qualify for the application.
In order to ensure the quality of outpatient services in a large hospital like Tuya, many excellent attending physicians are not allowed to open outpatient clinics.
Not to mention the residency.
It is estimated that the threshold will be further raised in the future, and only associate chief physician or above will be allowed to open an outpatient number.
Zhou Can had only been in regular training for less than two years, but Dean Zhu waved his hand and directly opened an outpatient number for him, allowing him to have the qualifications to see patients. This extraordinary promotion was really extraordinary.
It is extremely beneficial to his personal development.
Having the qualification to work as an outpatient clinic means stepping out from behind the scenes to the front stage and starting to accumulate popularity and fame.
These two things are invisible and intangible, but they are more tempting than a salary increase.
"Doctor Zhou, I have a humble request. You were reported in the news this time for resetting a child's dislocated arm. Judging from your consultations in the last few days at Xinxiang Women's and Children's Hospital, most of the patients are children. Do you think you can come to our pediatric department to see patients?"
Director Tang Fei of the Pediatrics Department extended the invitation at the right time.
There is a very good harmony between these department heads and hospital leaders.
"Xiao Zhou, I think it's a good choice for you to sit in the pediatric department and adapt for a while. Anyway, your regular training is still in our internal medicine department. Taking a day or so every week to sit in the pediatric department will enable you to grow and improve better."
Director Tan also has a good relationship with him and is very optimistic about him, which is why he gave him some tips at this moment.
Regular training focuses on learning.
Zhou Can's current diagnostic skills have reached level five, equivalent to the level of associate chief physician. He is also competent in internal medicine.
However, during the regular training phase, rotations in multiple departments are required.
Sitting in this department for one or two months and then moving to the next department is not conducive to accumulating popularity.
Zhou Can became an overnight sensation this time, and his field of fame is also pediatrics.
So it would be most beneficial for him to see patients in the pediatric department.
Otherwise, the internal medicine department is likely to be unpopular again, and the popularity of pediatrics will gradually decline.
"Thank you Director Tan for your advice, and thank you Director Tang for your trust. I am willing to work in the pediatric department." Zhou Can also has his own considerations.
I gladly accepted Director Tang Fei's invitation on the spot.
"Okay! It's settled. Xiao Zhou will submit the information to the outpatient department later, and someone will contact you. We will open an outpatient number for you tonight. You can come for the consultation tomorrow."
I hope that Dean will arrange it personally, and this matter will be implemented at an extremely astonishing speed.
If you apply for a clinic number with other doctors, it will take a month or so just to review your documents.
This matter of his was treated as a special matter.
Dean Zhu was so anxious to open an outpatient number for him because he naturally hoped to strike while the iron was hot and retain his popularity in the pediatric department.
"Xiao Du!"
After Dean Zhu arranged Zhou Can's affairs, he turned his gaze to Du Leng.
"I'm here, I'm here!"
Du Leng stood up quickly, looking quite respectful.
If he doesn't have this much emotional intelligence, his PhD studies would have been in vain.
He was facing the most powerful person in Tuya Hospital. He could not be too respectful.
"As far as I know, your performance at Xinxiang Women's and Children's Hospital this time was mediocre and somewhat unsatisfactory. You have a brilliant degree from a prestigious overseas university, which is a good thing and also your advantage, but you must focus on being down-to-earth and start with the most basic clinical learning. When I was young, I also had a period of youthful frivolity. At that time, I always thought that I had learned a little knowledge and could put the whole world under my feet."
"Later, I realized that it wasn't me who put the world under my feet, but when I had high expectations but poor skills, and didn't know how to do anything, I was sadly trampled under the feet of the world. I am very grateful to my teacher, because it was his scolding that woke me up. That's how I am today."
Dean Zhu did not hesitate to expose his embarrassing moments in his youth to remind Du Leng, which shows that he has very high expectations for Du Leng.
Such special talents are extremely valuable to Tuya Hospital at present.
He also gave Du Leng the greatest tolerance.
And it leaves enough time and space for growth.
"Thank you for your teachings. I will learn from them carefully and study basic clinical practice knowledge down to earth, and strive to live up to the high expectations of you, Director Xie, and all the leaders."
Du Leng expressed his sincere attitude.
"It's great that you realize your own shortcomings. Keep it up!"
After Dean Zhu finished speaking, he raised his hand and pressed him down.
"Sit down!"
His gaze turned to Gao Jian, Yang Chan, Chen Jiaojiao and others.
"Although there are some shortcomings in your performance this time, the merits outweigh the flaws, and overall it is still very good. Work hard and strive to become the pillars of Tuya Hospital as soon as possible. Xiao Gao, and Xiao Chen, your residency training time is almost two years, right?"
Dean Zhu looked at Gao Jian and Chen Jiaojiao.
"Thank you for your concern. Our residency training period will be over soon!"
Both of them have postgraduate master's degrees.
The residency training period is one year shorter than that of Zhou Can, an undergraduate student.
In fact, it is very popular now to study for a bachelor's, master's and doctoral degree in eight years. After graduation, you are exempt from regular training and can be promoted to chief physician directly after working for one year.
Everyone has his or her own destiny, and academic qualifications do not represent everything.
Gao Jian and Chen Jiaojiao are both top students at the Imperial Capital Medical University. They perform very well in all aspects, so they attract much attention from their superiors.
"One is Internal Medicine and the other is Pediatrics. Both are very good departments. Do your best. You have caught up with Tuya's talent reform this time. As long as you are willing to work hard, I believe you will be able to achieve rapid advancement in life and realize your ambitions."
After hearing Dean Zhu's encouragement, both of them looked happy.
Strength is important, and opportunity is also important.
They really caught up this time.
"Okay, you've all been exhausted from the journey, so I won't waste your time. I'll give you twenty-seven people half a day off so you can go home, visit your families, and take a break. Then you can go back to work at the hospital."
Doctors and nurses are very busy, so a half-day off is very tempting.
Many young people cheered.
After the leaders left, everyone carried their luggage and went home.
Zhou Can became the biggest winner.
"Doctor Zhou, is it convenient for you to come to the pediatric department tomorrow?" Director Tang Fei asked him.
"I'll ask Director Shang of the Department of Gastroenterology for instructions. If he agrees, I'll get back to you with a definite answer. Is that ok with you?" Zhou Can is still a resident trainee in the Department of Gastroenterology. No matter how high his status is, he dare not be so careless.
Those who need instructions must do so.
This is respect for leadership.
"It's my duty to ask Director Shang for instructions. Please write down my phone number and write me back when the time comes. I can then arrange for an outpatient clinic."
Unlike small hospitals, outpatient departments in large hospitals are a scarce resource.
There can only be one doctor in one outpatient clinic.
There are only so many outpatient rooms, and they must be scheduled in advance like operating rooms.
Otherwise, it is easy for doctors to 'fight'.
Zhou Can saved her phone number and returned to his dormitory with his luggage.
When he returned to the apartment, the first thing he did was to call Director Shang. After asking for instructions, Director Shang first congratulated him and then readily agreed.
After all, Zhou Can brought honor to the Department of Gastroenterology this time, and his status has been improved, so Director Shang will try his best to take care of him and establish a good relationship with him.
After obtaining Director Shang's consent, Zhou Can wrote back to Director Tang Fei.
This matter has been implemented.
Throw the dirty clothes into the washing machine to wash. The wet clothes I took off in the morning to save people and the sportswear I wore for running have not been washed yet.
The middle-aged man he rescued also had no idea of his identity?
Judging from his muscular body and the scars on his forehead and face, I'm afraid he is not a good guy.
But if he were given another chance, he would still choose to save people.
In the eyes of doctors, even if a person is a heinous criminal, they will still try to save him when his life is in danger. This is a reverence for life and also a doctor's duty.
He is such a bad guy, he will be punished by law.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
"Excuse me, is this Doctor Zhou?"
"right!"
"I'm the information officer at the clinic. Would it be convenient for you to bring your ID card, medical license, qualification certificate, and education certificate... and come over to process the entry of the clinic physician number?"
The girl's voice is very soft and cute.
"Okay, I'll be right there. Who should I look for when I get there?"
"My name is Yan Lele. Just look for me when you get here! You can also call me directly if you can't find me."
She was very respectful to Zhou Can.
