Dr. Xiao's words made Ning Shuyi slightly surprised.
This doctor's age is right there, he is in his forties, and he can be considered a person with rich experience from the time he first started working until now.
For him to still express such emotion after seven or eight years can explain some problems.
"Based on your experience and experience, to be able to say something like this, it seems that the patient Chang Rong gave you some unusual experiences, right?" she asked Dr. Xiao.
Dr. Xiao nodded: "Doctors, no matter which department they are in, will inevitably witness some scenes of life and death.
When we encounter this kind of situation on weekdays, the most common thing we hear is - 'Doctor, please save my family no matter what, no matter the cost, we will find a way'.
As a result, this patient named Chang Rong taught me a brand new lesson.
He was seriously injured at the time. After coming out of the ICU, it can only be said that his vital signs were stable, but he still needed rest and treatment.
As a result, the nurse in our department just went to inform his family members that the previous pre-deposited treatment fees had been almost used up and needed to be renewed. His family members asked to go through the discharge procedures without saying a word.
We were really surprised at the time. We had never encountered this kind of situation before, especially since the previous surgery had been completed and the really expensive part had already passed. "
Ning Shuyi and Huo Yan listened carefully to Dr. Xiao's recollection of what had happened. This part was consistent with what the workshop director Sun Wan said.
“The person who performed this surgery with me was the old director of our department who had not retired at that time.
The old director also asked whether the patient's family members were worried that the cost would be too high and that their family would not be able to bear it. How could he be discharged from the hospital under such circumstances?
He asked me to communicate with the family members and try to dissuade them. I should not make fun of the patient's life safety. He asked me to tell the family members that there are no high-priced drugs for subsequent medication. Don't worry and don't rush to discharge.
I found Chang Rong's son, who was going through the formalities upstairs and downstairs at the time. He told me that he couldn't make the decision, and his mother asked him to go through the formalities.
I found Evergreen’s lover again, who was accompanying her in the ward at the time. I explained the situation to her in great detail, hoping that she could eliminate the misunderstanding and allow the patient to continue receiving treatment.
But she refused and made a big fuss, saying that we were just evil-minded, deliberately exaggerating the condition, and wanted to suck their blood dry and use up their savings with hospitalization expenses. "
Dr. Xiao still felt a little headache after recalling this episode after so many years. He couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his temples: "I told her, don't think that you are really safe after you leave the ICU. Chang Rong is now The condition is not yet stable, and it’s hard to say what will happen if he is discharged from the hospital and goes home at this time.
His wife took out her mobile phone at that time, turned on the video recording function in front of us, and told the camera that she was the one who asked Chang Rong to be discharged from the hospital. They will be responsible for any consequences after the discharge and will never implicate us. The hospital, even if Chang Rong died after returning home, they would never waste a penny from the hospital! "
"So do you agree that she will discharge Chang Rong from the hospital?" Ning Shuyi asked.
Dr. Xiao spread his hands helplessly: "What else can we do! The law only stipulates that hospitals cannot force patients to be discharged, but it does not prohibit patients from requesting to be discharged before treatment and recovery!
According to common sense, if a patient like this recovers without treatment and the patient or his family strongly requests to be discharged, we need to conduct another physical examination for the patient, record the situation clearly, and obtain signatures from the family members.
Regarding this routine check-up before discharge, Chang Rong's spouse was arguing with us for a while, saying that we would not finish it unless we squeezed out every last penny of their family's money.
Finally, our head nurse had experience and told her that if she wastes more time and does not let the doctor check her, she will not be able to go through the discharge procedures, and then she will have to deduct one more day of hospitalization fees. "
Doctor Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "As soon as the woman heard this, she stopped making trouble immediately! She agreed to let us do an examination, and then went through the discharge procedures.
You may not be able to imagine the scene at that time. When her husband was discharged from the hospital, he didn't even wake up and was still in a coma.
His son wanted to carry him on his back, but the incision on the patient's body had only been stitched up for a few days, and it had not grown well at all. It could not be compressed and would easily collapse.
We borrowed a stretcher truck to help deliver it out, and the patient's lover kept making us promise that there would be no extra charge for the stretcher truck.
After they were finally discharged from the hospital, our department was quite shocked by the family. Unexpectedly, a few days later, someone came to the hospital and wanted to visit Chang Rong. I heard that Chang Rong was discharged from the hospital. , so angry that he started yelling in the corridor.
With this scolding, we also heard some information that we didn’t know originally.
Chang Rong was treated for a long time and was considered a work-related injury. The previous hospitalization expenses were advanced by the factory. After that, the family negotiated with the factory and received a buyout compensation. I don’t know the specific amount. , but there should be quite a few words revealed when those few people scolded them. "
Ning Shuyi and Huo Yan looked at each other. They both expected that the hospital would not recommend that trauma patients with such serious injuries be discharged so early. Of course they would give advice, but they didn't expect that Deng Qingrong would do it in order to spend less money. It can be so outrageous.
"I am not a person from a utopia. Everyone has to live a life, and money is definitely crucial. No one can survive without money.
But I really didn’t expect that in the minds of some people, money can be more important than the lives of their closest relatives. It’s obvious that they don’t have money, and they have a large amount of compensation in their hands, but they are not even willing to pay for subsequent hospitalization. out. "
Dr. Xiao sighed countless times while recalling this incident, which showed how deeply he felt about this incident.
"How long ago was that... eight years ago, right?" Dr. Xiao adjusted his sitting posture, "To be honest, if this happened now, I might not have the leisure time. After seeing too much of the harsh world, , people will become somewhat numb.
I was okay back then, I still had a bit of that passion and nosy heart!
About half a year after Chang Rong was discharged from the hospital, I always thought of this patient from time to time.
When I thought about how seriously injured he was when he was discharged from the hospital, I couldn't let it go. So one day, I used my personal time after get off work to try to use the contact information of the patient's family members that I had left when he was hospitalized. The call was made. "
