Chapter 537 Life-saving Straw, Cousin's Banquet
At present, Zhou Can is exploring the direction of rapid healing.
The wound healing time is about one to two weeks, depending on the speed of cell division and growth in the human body, as well as the abundance of blood circulation around the wound.
The prerequisite is that the wound has been treated and cannot come into contact with water or get infected.
Generally speaking, the time required to remove stitches after surgery varies depending on the location of the wound and the suture conditions, and most of the time it takes is around 4-12 days.
The surgery Zhou Can performed on Deputy Director Lu was minimally invasive and the wound was very small.
The wound on the epidermis that needed to be sutured was very small and it healed to a fairly good degree in three days. This is normal.
The key is the healing of intra-abdominal wounds.
Ruptured spleen, arteries, wound suture after pancreatic tumor resection, and repair of intracranial arteries are the real key.
Now the patient's surface wounds are recovering well, which also indirectly indicates that the internal recovery is good.
Just imagine, if the wound inside the body doesn't heal well, the patient's body will definitely have various problems. The wound on the surface of the body naturally can't heal so quickly.
"By the way, I came here this time to bring good news. I reported to President Zhu that the Provincial People's Hospital was willing to conduct medical exchanges with Tuya Hospital. President Zhu attached great importance to this matter and convened a leadership meeting, agreeing that the two hospitals should exchange and learn from each other to jointly improve the medical level of the province. Do you think your hospital can send a representative to discuss the specific medical exchange plan with the leaders of our hospital?"
Zhou Can brought up the main issue.
He was happy to act as a middleman between the two hospitals.
"That's no problem! I can call the dean right now and ask him about it, and you can give me an answer."
Director Xiang Fei seems to care more about this matter than Zhou Can.
It was no wonder that he was so concerned, because Tuya Hospital had been making great strides recently, rising steadily, which was really dazzling. The leaders of the Provincial People's Hospital were extremely anxious and had long wanted to learn from Tuya Hospital.
Now that both parties have this intention, it is natural that they hit it off.
In terms of urgent needs, the Provincial People's Hospital has an even stronger one.
Director Xiang Fei went out with his cell phone.
Not long after, he came back with a smile on his face.
"Our Dean Sheng has already issued instructions and will send the Vice Dean for Operations to Tuya Hospital to discuss the specific exchange plan. Once you have set a time, just let me know."
When discussing this matter, it can be seen that Director Xiang Fei kept a very humble attitude.
His attitude represents the attitude of the top management of the Provincial People's Hospital.
The matter was settled, and Zhou Can chatted for a while longer before getting up to say goodbye.
Director Xiang Fei stood up to see him off, with a very polite attitude.
"Please stay!"
Zhou Can didn't dare let Director Xiang keep sending him off.
After walking out of the office, he quickly turned around and asked Director Xiang to go back.
"Dr. Zhou, you can come visit me more often when you are free. We can drink tea and chat, or exchange medical ideas. You are all welcome." Director Xiang Fei said with a smile.
"Okay, just don't think I'm troublesome then!"
Zhou Can really wants to learn critical care rescue knowledge from Director Xiang Fei.
Even though Zhou Can easily diagnosed the patient with deep vein thrombosis when rescuing Deputy Director Lu last time, Director Xiang failed to find it. That doesn't mean anything.
Director Xiang’s level is not low. He is better than Zhou Can in terms of experience and rescue knowledge.
Coming out of Director Xiang's office and passing the door of the intensive care unit, Zhou Can wanted to see if the meal he ordered for Lu Fen had been delivered. Unexpectedly, he found that there were five or six men and women surrounding Lu Fen.
After taking a closer look, Zhou Can discovered that these people were all acquaintances.
They were all former colleagues from the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Tuya Hospital, both doctors and nurses, who had switched to the Third Hospital. But now, they all looked haggard, their eyes lacked the arrogance they once had, and they all looked extremely weak.
I'm not doing well, I'm under a lot of pressure, and I lack confidence, so naturally I look like this.
Any adult who cannot make money or has a bad job will be like this. The main pillar supporting an adult is career, or in other words, economy.
"Brother, are you leaving?"
Lu Fen spotted Zhou Can quickly and greeted him.
In her hands, she was holding a bag of fast food and a box of strawberries. She had obviously not had time to eat yet, so she had to receive these people who came to visit her.
"Well, I'm ready to go back to work."
Zhou Can nodded.
Those people turned their heads or looked up at Zhou Can.
"Doctor Zhou!"
They were very surprised.
Seeing Zhou Can here was already a surprise. They were even more shocked to hear Lu Fen calling Zhou Can "brother" in a very intimate way.
"Director Li, Director Xing..."
Zhou Can greeted them one by one with a smile.
These people used to be the chief or deputy chief physicians of the cardiothoracic surgery department of Tuya Hospital. They held multiple positions and were surrounded by honors.
He can be said to be of noble status and holds a very high position in Tuya's cardiothoracic surgery department.
That was also their most glorious time.
But I didn't expect that everything would come to a sudden halt after changing jobs.
They didn't jump into heaven, but fell into the abyss and hell. It can only be said that in this life, no one knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident.
Tomorrow may be even more exciting.
It is also possible to fall into the abyss.
"How come Dr. Zhou and Director Lu's daughters are brother and sister? I never knew you were relatives before!"
Director Li asked with great curiosity.
"After my dad got into trouble, Dr. Zhou came and helped a lot, which allowed my dad to survive. He is also the person my dad trusts the most, so I recognized him as my brother."
Lu Fen explained beside him.
"So that's how it is! Doctor Zhou is really kind and righteous. Even though Director Lu fell into poverty and left Tuya, he still treated him so well."
After hearing this, the way they looked at Zhou Can immediately changed.
They share the same suffering as Director Lu, who have all taken the wrong path and fallen into the abyss.
Many of their former colleagues at Tuya cut off contact with them and avoided them. The obvious indifference made them deeply feel the coldness of the world.
Zhou Can's righteous act undoubtedly made these people like him even more.
"You are here to visit Director Lu as well, right? I just asked Director Xiang Fei from the intensive care unit, and he told me that Director Lu's recovery is very optimistic. As long as nothing unexpected happens, he should have survived the test of death."
Zhou Can introduced Director Lu’s situation to them so that they could feel at ease.
"Lu Fen hasn't had lunch yet, so don't disturb her. It just so happens that I have something to talk to you about. It's about your return to Tuya for work."
She was deeply moved .
Several chief physicians and chief nurses who had switched jobs to the Third Hospital suddenly became bright-eyed and excited when they heard that Zhou Can wanted to talk to them about returning to work at Tuya.
There is also a joy that comes from the heart and is difficult to conceal.
In desperate situation and darkness, Zhou Can was like a ray of light, illuminating them.
"Can we...really go back to work at Tuya Hospital?"
Director Li clasped his hands together in disbelief.
His eyes were full of hope.
"I can only say that there is hope, but you need to work hard together to fight for it. This is not the place to chat, let's find a quiet place to talk!"
Zhou Can said lightly.
"Okay, okay, there's a coffee shop across the street. Can we go there and ask for a private room to chat?" Director Li was obviously the representative of these people.
When he was in Tuya, he already had a certain appeal.
He is quite good in both academic and clinical diagnosis and treatment. Among the many chief physicians who have changed jobs, except for his poor surgical skills, his academic achievements and diagnosis and treatment abilities are first-class.
"This is a good idea. The private room is quieter and you can drink tea there."
Zhou Can nodded in agreement happily.
"Niece, we'll leave first! Come visit Old Lu another day."
"Okay, thank you uncles and aunts! Take care!"
Lu Fen waved to them.
Zhou Can came to the private room of the teahouse with several others, and they all surrounded Zhou Can as if he were their life-saving straw.
You know, these people were once very arrogant.
"I have learned about your experience from Director Lu. I wonder if you want to return to work at Tuya Hospital? If this is just my wishful thinking, there is no need to bother with it."
Zhou Can first sounded out the attitudes of several people to find out their bottom line.
"Of course I would. I used to fall asleep as soon as I got home, but now I can't sleep all night. As soon as I lie down on the bed, I think about why I changed jobs when I was doing so well. I want to slap myself in the face for the miserable situation I have now."
"As long as I can return to work at Tuya Hospital, I am willing to pay any price. The Third Hospital is a vicious wolf that eats people without leaving any bones. Our strength is too weak and there is no way to compete with it. Now I just want to escape from this devil's den."
"After I changed jobs, I only received one month's basic salary. Now my husband quarrels with me every day and scolds me for changing jobs. Even my son doesn't understand me. Sometimes I want to do what Director Lu did and jump off the building to get rid of my worries."
…
Several directors spoke one after another, and their eyes were filled with tears when they talked about their tragic experiences.
They chose their own path, and they must be regretting it now.
After listening to this, Zhou Can already had an idea in his mind.
"If you want to return to Tuya Hospital, you must find a way to make the matter bigger and attract the attention and attention of the higher authorities. Director Lu's jumping off the building this time has created conditions for you..."
Zhou Can gave these people some advice.
They discussed in the private room of the teahouse for more than half an hour. Zhou Can left in a hurry because he had to go back to the hospital to work.
When it came time to pay the bill, Director Li refused to let Zhou Can pay no matter what.
Zhou Can did not force it.
He brought these people hope of returning to work at Tuya Hospital, and they all regarded him as their lifesaver.
Zhou Can has already helped in every way he could.
Whether they can make waves to save themselves next depends on themselves.
On the way back to Tuya Hospital, he first called President Zhu to report that the Provincial People's Hospital agreed to send the deputy director of business to discuss the matter.
Dean Zhu seemed very happy to hear that Zhou Can brought back good news from the Provincial People's Hospital so quickly.
"Okay, great! Tell them that the bed is ready for them and they are welcome to come anytime. We will arrange for Vice President Ye of the same level to receive them."
Reciprocity has always been one of the tenets of diplomatic communication.
The Provincial People's Hospital sent a deputy director, so Tuya naturally cannot just send a director to receive him.
Out of courtesy and respect, it would be more appropriate to send the vice president to receive them.
As for the interaction between the two hospitals, it is basically difficult to have a conversation with the dean right from the start.
Unless President Zhu is already familiar with the president of the Provincial People's Hospital and they have a certain relationship.
The two men obviously had no friendship.
Especially when Director Hu Kan passed away two years ago, the Provincial People's Hospital and other large hospitals jointly launched a crackdown on Tuya's cardiothoracic surgery business, which was equivalent to going to war.
The two hospitals went to war, and they must have accumulated some hatred for each other.
At least the top leaders will have this kind of grudge in their hearts.
Now Zhou Can has acted as a middleman to bring the two hospitals together and made peace, making a significant contribution to the stability and progress of medical care in the province.
When this is accomplished, his contribution will certainly not be forgotten.
This will be a trump card and advantage if you compete with other opponents for important positions such as vice president or president of the hospital in the future.
It is like a graduate entering the society to work and looking for a job. Every honor he has received during his studies, or every experience he is proud of, can become his competitive advantage.
…
Zhou Can did his best to bring the two hospitals together for medical exchanges, so he didn't mention it.
After get off work in the evening, he rushed to the cardiothoracic surgery department to help as usual.
But the cell phone rang.
When I took it out, I saw that it was my aunt's daughter, Chen Shangmei, calling.
Zhou Can has never liked his aunt's family.
Because this family is particularly snobbish and calculating.
When dealing with such people, you must always be on guard, or you may be calculated or taken advantage of by them if you are not careful.
I didn't want to answer the call at first, but my cousin was persistent and called again soon.
I really want to block him directly.
Of course, this idea is just a thought and cannot be really done.
I answered the call reluctantly.
"Hello, Shangmei!"
The more polite Zhou Can was to her, the more distant he seemed.
Of course, this trick doesn't work for some thick-skinned people.
"Cousin, why don't you answer the phone? People have called you more than ten times and left you messages on WeChat, but you haven't replied to me." She complained.
"Oh, sorry, I was at work and didn't see it."
Zhou Can said perfunctorily.
I have seen it a long time ago , but I just don’t want to reply.
He is extremely busy all day long now, and he really doesn't want to reply to irrelevant calls or messages.
Basically just ignore it.
"Are you off work now?"
"Yeah! What's up?"
Zhou Can still had a cold attitude.
"Is it impossible for me to call you if I have nothing to do? We are relatives after all! I want to treat you to dinner tonight, and you are not allowed to refuse. The meal has been booked."
She said somewhat bossily.
If Zhou Can had a good relationship with her, this overbearing behavior would make people feel cute and kind.
Now... haha, no one should take himself too seriously.
"Let's eat. I have to work overtime tonight , so I'm afraid I don't have time! Let's make an appointment next time when we have the chance!"
Zhou Can refused directly.
