The two young nurses looked at him in surprise, and one of them couldn't help but asked softly: "Qiao, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Zhou Qiao waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, I just think of my aunt's death and feel a little sad."
"Anna must have gone to heaven, so we don't have to be too sad." Elena comforted her.
She saw Zhou Qiao's hard work and responsibility these days, and felt a little sorry for Zhou Qiao.
…
Zhou Qiao actually didn't dare to go out at night in this beautiful country. It will be chugged.
The two little nurses are also very well-behaved, and they are busy in the clinic. Although the clinic is closed these days, things that need to be sorted out still need to be sorted out. Now that everyone is gone, only the two of them are left.
Not to mention anything else, just the hygiene on the third floor will kill them!
Zhou Qiao was a little worried. The clinic would eventually open, but he had not yet obtained the American occupational physician qualification certificate.
Clinicians in the United States are divided into two levels, residents and attending physicians. The attending doctor is there for life.
This is different from China, where there are various professional titles. In addition to resident physicians and attending physicians, there are also deputy chief physicians and chief physicians, as well as associate professors and professors in the teaching department. Further up there are academicians.
As for intern doctors, they are not considered formal doctors, whether at home or abroad.
Two young nurses were doing hygiene, while Zhou Qiao was busy in the office, sorting out the clinic's information and getting familiar with the business.
He took a look and found that the clinic's main source of income was to treat patients with colds, fevers, diarrhea, or simple trauma.
Then there is the follow-up of some patients over 35 years old, blood lipid, blood pressure, blood sugar screening, obesity, smoking cessation and other health consultations.
It's just that there are too many private clinics in the United States and the competition is too great. My aunt's clinic seems to be averagely competitive.
Some simple minor surgeries can be performed here, such as the first simple appendectomy, the first simple hernia repair, abortion, circumcision, foreign body removal, nevus core, nevus fistula surgery, etc., but Complex ones won’t work.
However, San Francisco is not big, but it is extremely prosperous. A few kilometers away is the University of California Medical Center, whose full name is University of California, San Francisco Affiliated Hospital, ranking fifth in the world.
Everything that cannot be handled is sent over there.
In the past few months, my aunt performed the surgery herself, rented the operating room and equipment of the University of California Medical Center, and performed a heart stent surgery on a patient.
However, there are not many such "big business", and we only encounter them only a few times a year.
Since the clinic is temporarily closed and the door is closed, there are no patients coming tonight.
Time flew by and it was soon eleven o'clock in the evening. The two little nurses have gone to bed.
Zhou Qiao came to the third floor, took a quick shower, burned three sticks of incense in front of her aunt's body, and then returned to her bedroom.
Auntie's original room has not been moved for the time being. Zhou Qiao lives in a utility room that was packed out. It is relatively small, but it faces the street and is by the window, so it is quite comfortable to live there.
There is no separate bathroom, there is only one public bathroom on the third floor. Shower included.
There are a lot of girls' toiletries inside, and even the underwear that Elena and Ava changed out of are sometimes left hanging there without being collected. So Zhou Qiao didn't dare to stay in there for long, and took a bath very quickly every time.
If I stay there for a long time, I'm afraid that people will have some bad ideas.
Two young nurses lived at the other end of the corridor, while Zhou Qiao lived next to the bathroom. I chose this room mainly because it was convenient to get up at night.
Like two little nurses, they have to walk a long way to go to the toilet at night.
Then, Zhou Qiao was drowsily asleep when he suddenly heard a "plop" in the bathroom next to him, accompanied by a slight scream.
Zhou Qiao woke up instantly and hurried over to investigate.
The light in the bathroom was on, and Zhou Qiao asked: "Is it Elena or Ava? What's wrong?"
A voice, either Elena or Ava's, came from inside: "I fell, sprained one foot and can't get up. The bathroom door is open, please come in and help me!"
Zhou Qiao gently turned the handle, and sure enough, the door opened. Then he saw the white nurse wearing a loose nightgown and falling to the ground. Her left ankle was swollen.
"I might have a broken bone or a dislocated bone!" Elena exclaimed.
Zhou Qiao stepped forward and knelt down, inspected carefully, and pressed lightly with his fingers. Elena couldn't help but scream. Zhou Qiao looked up and saw that there was a vacuum in her loose nightgown. He couldn't help but feel the blood rushing up. , I almost had a nosebleed!
He quickly calmed down and said: "This is not a dislocation or a fracture. Those two situations would be much more serious than yours. You most likely have a muscle sprain or a slight bone fracture. Let me help you. Apply ice, put on a stent, and go to the medical testing company for a CT scan tomorrow morning."
Zhou Qiaoxin said that it was really inconvenient that there were no X-rays and CT scans in the clinic. However, these two devices are quite expensive and may not be affordable for the time being. In addition, after buying the equipment, you also need to hire people to operate and maintain it, which is another huge expense.
There are ready-made commercial imaging centers out there, why not use them?
"Yeah." Elena felt a little better.
She couldn't walk or even get up. After thinking about it, Zhou Qiao simply picked her up and walked to his room.
"What are you doing?" Elena was ashamed and frightened. She pushed her away slightly with her hands, but she looked weak and boneless.
"It's too far to go downstairs. Just wait here and don't move. I'll go downstairs to get ice cubes, gauze, and a stent."
Zhou Qiao put the white nurse on the bed, and before going out, he couldn't help but turn around and ask: "By the way, are you Elena or Ava?"
"I'm Elena."
Zhou Qiao nodded, turned around and went out resolutely.
Elena took a deep look at him and thought to herself, I wrongly blamed him just now, I thought he was going to force me to do something.
However, this brother is still quite handsome, and he is attentive and gentle.
She hugged her knees and couldn't help but groan again because her ankles really hurt.
Soon, Zhou Qiao brought gauze, ice cubes and a stent, and also specially brought a painkiller.
Elena's ankle was so swollen that it was actually a hematoma. It is caused by muscle sprain, blood vessel rupture, and massive internal bleeding. Therefore, use ice compress to stop the bleeding first, and then switch to hot compress after a few days.
If you apply heat now, it will only aggravate the bleeding!
In the dead of night, in the small room, Zhou Qiao knelt beside the bed, very gently helped Elena stop the bleeding, bandaged her, and fed her a painkiller.
"But, Joe, it still hurts me so much!" Elena couldn't help but frown.
Zhou Qiao smiled and said: "How can medicine work so quickly? If you want to relieve it, you can lift your feet and let the blood flow back to the roots of your thighs."
"Yeah." Elena was also a nurse and knew this. She immediately raised her slender white legs. With this lift, the hem of her nightgown immediately slipped down, revealing the endless beauty.
It is so beautiful that it should only be found in heaven!
Zhou Qiao: "..."
Elena: "..."
She forgot that she was in a vacuum!
Elena is young and beautiful, has a graceful figure, and her skin is as white as snow, which is fascinating. Zhou Qiao is also full of vitality. He is dizzy and impulsive, and he pounces on her like a hungry tiger pouncing on a sheep!
"Qiao, no, I am your righteous... uh uh..."
…
An hour later, Elena lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep, with a smile on her lips and slept very soundly. She had just been injured and was really exhausted.
Zhou Qiao hugged her and closed his eyes, but he didn't sleep. He "stared" at the virtual panel and golden fonts that appeared in his mind, and he was shocked!
