Chapter 473: Life and Death, Listen to the Opinions of New Comrades
Zhou Can was full of doubts. It was his first time attending such a meeting.
At first I just felt it was a bit mysterious.
After completing the registration, I saw Director Lou put all his personal belongings, such as his mobile phone and watch, into an unused storage drawer.
"Hurry up and store your personal belongings! Any drawer with a key in it is unused."
After Director Lou deposited the money, he took out the key and put it in his pocket.
The security guard scanned Director Lou from head to toe twice with a scanner similar to the one used for security checks. No problem, he waved and let him go.
Zhou Can followed suit, put his personal belongings in the drawer, and also underwent security inspection.
"Come in!"
After passing the security check, Zhou Can followed Director Lou inside.
The first thing that catches your eye is a small courtyard with an elegant layout, estimated to be around 70 or 80 square meters, with some flowers, plants and trees planted, and a rockery built.
"Ordinary people are not qualified to enter here. You are a very lucky guy. This time, you even got permission from Dean Zhu to bring you to this meeting."
Only Director Lou and Zhou Can came from the entire emergency department.
Even Deputy Director Han Changqing was not invited.
From this point, we can see that there is a big difference between the top leader and the second-in-command. This is not only reflected in power and authority, but also in various details of treatment.
Zhou Can was really puzzled. In terms of status, qualifications and position, he should not be qualified to attend such a highly confidential high-level meeting.
I don’t know why Dean Zhu called him over?
After walking about ten meters along the gallery-like corridor, Director Lou stopped in front of a room.
There was a small sign on the door with a few words molded in black metal.
Meeting Room 0.
Standing at the entrance were two staff members, a man and a woman, wearing black suits and holding security scanners.
"Director Lou!"
"It's me, it's me! Thank you both for your help!"
Director Lou quickly agreed and stepped forward, taking the initiative to accept the examination of the two men.
"No problem, please come in and take a seat!"
After the female staff member finished speaking, she ticked the name on the list in her hand and then looked up at Zhou Can.
"Doctor Zhou Can?"
She frowned slightly as she looked at Zhou Can, her eyes full of curiosity.
She was obviously a little surprised to see a new, young face.
"arrive!"
Zhou Can took a step forward and followed suit, standing between two staff members to accept inspection.
After the scan was completed, the man apologized to Zhou Can, "I'm sorry, I offended you!"
After saying that, he began to search Zhou Can's body very professionally with his hands.
The inspection was completed quickly.
"No problem, please come in!"
As Zhou Can walked inside, he was wondering what kind of meeting was this? It sounded like a discussion of national affairs.
There were already quite a few people sitting in the conference room.
Looking around, everyone is a big shot.
Director Tang Fei, Director Tan, Director Xueyan, Director Xie...these are all acquaintances.
The person who was qualified to sit here had to be at least the head of a powerful department. Even Deputy Section Chief Yin of the Medical Department was not there, only Section Chief Xin Wanshan came.
There is a sign on the table in front of each seat with the name of the participant written on it.
This also means that you need to find your place in the right place.
Zhou Can began to search, and after some hard searching, he finally saw the words "Zhou Can" on the table of the last seat.
He didn't feel aggrieved at all about this.
Who among these people here does not have a higher status than him? Who does not have more seniority than him?
It is an honor for him to be able to attend this meeting.
After entering, everyone was very serious and no one was whispering to each other.
Then more people came in, all of them were key figures in the hospital. Some of them were administrative leaders or directors of other departments, whom Zhou Can didn't recognize at all.
Because Tuya has too many employees.
Soon, the number of participants in the conference room reached more than 100. As long as Zhou Can knew them, they were basically department heads.
The assistant dean, the deputy dean for general affairs, and the chief of security have all been replaced.
The last major earthquake directly brought down two hospital-level leaders, and even Dean Zhu was affected.
Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it.
The medical staff of the clinical department fought a great turnaround under the leadership of Zhou Can.
At that time, many people were worried that Zhou Can would be held accountable afterwards.
Fortunately, so far, he is still working normally and does not seem to be affected too much.
It is hard to say whether promotion to important positions in the future will encounter obstacles because of that incident.
Around half past six, Dean Zhu walked into the conference room with a dignified look on his face.
His eyes swept across everyone present, and the invisible pressure made everyone look solemn.
"Is everyone here?"
"After verification, all invited participants have arrived."
The female staff member standing at the door doing security answered.
"Well, you've worked hard! Close the door and get ready for the meeting!"
Dean Zhu nodded.
The female staff member closed the door and stayed in the meeting room to serve tea and water to everyone, while the male staff member was locked outside.
The door of the conference room is very heavy, and the walls of the entire conference room are equipped with sound insulation cotton, so confidentiality is strictly enforced.
"Each of you here is a pillar of our Tuya Hospital, and your loyalty has been tested many times. The last time we held a meeting of this level was three years ago. I invited you all here today because Tuya Hospital has reached a critical moment."
Dean Zhu did not beat around the bush or say any unnecessary nonsense and went straight to the point of the meeting.
Zhou Can was a little confused at first. What kind of meeting was this? Why was it so mysterious?
Now I finally understand a little bit.
If I'm not mistaken, it's probably related to poaching from the Third Hospital.
Poaching just one or two experts might not cause panic in Tuya Hospital. But poaching more than 20 key doctors in the cardiothoracic surgery department, what is the purpose? They want to poach the cardiothoracic surgery department of Tuya Hospital.
"I believe those who are well-informed have already known that recently , the Third Hospital has been ruthless to our cardiothoracic surgery department, poaching 24 key doctors and nurses in one go. This is the heaviest loss our Tuya Hospital has suffered in the past fifty years."
As soon as Dean Zhu finished speaking, there was an uproar below.
"A small Third Hospital actually dared to provoke our Tuya. We must give it some response and let it know that the Horse King has three eyes."
The person who spoke was an old man Zhou Can didn't know.
Judging from his work clothes, he should be the director of a clinical department or something like that.
Compared with this man's anger and impulsiveness, the administrative leaders seemed much calmer.
The operation of a hospital is inseparable from the strong cooperation of various departments. The work of the clinical department is diagnosis and treatment, while the administrative department needs to handle all aspects of the relationship, implement various instructions issued by superiors, abide by legal provisions, and supervise the healthy development of the clinical department.
For example, if a doctor accepts red envelopes, performs surgery on patients without authorization, or the department director embezzles money, all of these are monitored by the administrative department and corrected in a timely manner.
The administrative department is responsible for responding to inspections from superiors, managing relationships with various departments, and processing and renewing various hospital licenses and certificates.
The main job of doctors and nurses in clinical departments is to cure patients and ensure they leave the hospital in good health.
As for dealing with higher-level departments, it requires the staff of the administrative department to take action.
Professionals do professional things.
Each has his own duties.
The logistics department is equally important, including material supply, security, sanitation and cleaning, etc. Any problems in any link will have a great impact on the operation of the hospital.
For example, the security department used to be full of trouble, which directly led to frequent incidents of medical staff in clinical departments being beaten by their family members.
Now, after the rectification, as long as the family members show signs of violence, the hospital security will rush to stop the family members and patients from committing violence. Every clinical medical staff can feel that their personal safety is significantly more guaranteed.
It is precisely because everyone has experienced the benefits that Zhou Can has risen to a certain status in the minds of clinical medical staff.
This invisible support is actually admiration.
If Zhou Can becomes an important leader of the hospital in the future, this support will play an important role.
For example, if the hospital is preparing to select a deputy director for business affairs and there are multiple candidates, at this time, if Zhou Can meets the requirements, he will have an advantage over other candidates.
"Director, I suggest that we restrict the job-hopping of key doctors and nurses in our hospital."
"After all, if they can recruit those people, their treatment must be better than ours. It would be more effective to directly increase their treatment."
"It's not enough to just increase the salary. Human greed is a bottomless pit. The financial burden of hospitals is already heavy. A significant increase in the salary of clinical medical staff will increase the financial burden, which is equivalent to putting shackles on ourselves."
It was the Director of Finance who objected.
The finances of any large organization are difficult to manage, and often the organization has to live frugally and consider all aspects of expenditure.
Although most hospitals have impressive annual revenues, they are still in the red.
The existence of empty salaries, slush funds, illegal distribution of benefits by important leaders, and blatant corruption in the purchase of equipment and consumables are certainly part of the reasons for the losses, but they are not the main reasons .
The hospital's staff salary expenses have always been the largest expense.
For example, a chief nurse can earn about 240,000 yuan a year, which is an average of 20,000 yuan a month. However, the actual labor cost of the hospital is at least 360,000 yuan, because the five social insurances and one housing fund, as well as various invisible labor costs, must be taken into account.
Everyone present expressed their opinions and provided many suggestions.
Zhou Can just listened silently.
It must be said that gathering the wisdom of everyone to discuss a matter can indeed achieve the goal of brainstorming. However, there are also some problems. Everyone will first consider the interests of their own department.
For example, someone just mentioned giving clinical medical staff a salary increase, and the director of finance was the first to stand up and oppose it.
"Everyone spoke very actively. I have written down some good suggestions. Now let's listen to the new comrade's opinions. Our Tuya Hospital's cardiothoracic surgery department has launched some very good strategies for the counterattack this time, all of which came from this new comrade."
As soon as Dean Zhu finished speaking, everyone began to turn their heads and look around, wanting to see who the new comrade Dean Zhu was talking about was.
Three years have passed, and there are some new faces attending the conference, but the number is not large.
In order to be qualified to participate in the discussion of major hospital decisions, one not only needs to be loyal to the hospital, but also needs to have a fairly high status and influence.
As soon as Zhou Can heard it, he knew that it was probably him that was being talked about.
"Zhou Can, I noticed that you didn't say anything just now. Is this your first time attending a meeting like this? Are you afraid to speak? No need to worry. Before the meeting, no one is allowed to bring in any recording or video equipment that may record the scene. Everyone can speak freely without worrying about leaving any unfavorable evidence."
Dean Zhu's eyes were fixed directly on Zhou Can, who was sitting in the last row.
This made him smile bitterly.
Sometimes being too much attention from superiors is not a good thing!
At least for him who always likes to keep a low profile, he has never thought about attracting attention.
Now that he was publicly named by President Zhu, basically anyone who is not stupid knows that the cardiothoracic surgery department's counterattack strategy came from him.
No electronic devices were allowed into the venue, and people were encouraged to speak freely, which really greatly increased the enthusiasm of everyone to speak. When everyone was discussing just now, the usually deep-minded leaders spoke very actively.
"I am a newcomer and a junior, so it is good enough for me to listen to the opinions of the seniors."
Zhou Can stood up and answered with gritted teeth.
"Xiao Zhou, you can't do that! Being able to enter this conference room means that the hospital recognizes you. Each of us is a part of the hospital. If you have any good suggestions, don't you think it's a pity to keep them in your heart? Besides, everyone has the responsibility to ensure that the hospital can prosper and not be destroyed by its competitors."
Vice President Ye encouraged him to speak out his opinions bravely.
Director Lou just spoke and also made a lot of suggestions.
"Well, I'll just throw out some ideas and share some of my humble opinions."
Zhou Can has been pushed onto the stage. If he doesn't speak, he would be considered unsociable and too restrained.
"I think the Third Hospital's poaching of a large number of core medical staff from our cardiothoracic surgery department is both a bad and a good thing. Nowadays, major hospitals are very competitive and will do anything to grow and develop. The Third Hospital is the first to use ruthless tactics against us, but it will definitely not be the last. It's better to strike once than to strike a hundred. We should take this opportunity to strike it hard."
After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but look at this young man with admiration.
Being able to have such a high level of overall perspective, being forward-looking, ruthless and decisive in his methods, he is definitely a natural born general.
Many bigwigs have to spend most of their lives honing their skills to have such vision and means.
It is rare for Zhou Can to be so powerful even though he is only in his twenties.
"The Third Hospital will certainly offer much higher salaries and benefits to its employees when they poach them. The first wave of counterattacks launched by the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery against the Third Hospital has been effective. The Third Hospital is now suffering from severe public opinion shocks and various negative impacts. I believe that its cardiothoracic surgery outpatient and emergency visits will definitely drop precipitously. At this time, those who have just been poached are uneasy and will surely worry about jumping into a quagmire when they see this situation."
"We can add fuel to the fire and even spread rumors that the Third Hospital's cardiothoracic surgery department will be reduced to its original state or even collapse. I believe that such alarmist talk will make those medical staff who have jumped ship there even more uneasy. In addition, the Third Hospital's main business has always been general surgery and respiratory medicine. We can take this opportunity to launch an attack in these two areas and grab its business volume."
"It would be even better if we could cleverly mobilize other hospitals to participate. However, it would be best to operate secretly when it comes to the relationship with other hospitals. We should be able to keep it clean and make other hospitals unaware that we are the one behind it. This will be in our best interest."
The image of a hospital is very important.
Especially the positive image.
It would be somewhat embarrassing if other hospitals knew that Tuya, a top provincial hospital, was so shameless as to pursue the Third Hospital.
It will have a certain negative impact on Tuya's dignity.
"Taking advantage of the Third Hospital's chaos and seizing its general surgery and respiratory medicine businesses will also be beneficial to other hospitals. I believe they will be very motivated."
Zhou Can said lightly.
