Chapter 1520: Chapter 1520: Only She Can Accompany Him

The hospital transfer procedures are completed.

Taking the medical records, Xie Wanying thanked Doctor Chiang. Professor He had something to attend to this morning and was not present at the unit, so the entire process was handled with the help of Doctor Chiang.

“No need to thank me,” Doctor Chiang said to her, as he, being a young doctor, also just wanted to help patients.

In a rush to eat and catch her flight, Xie Wanying didn’t want to delay the hospital’s senior staff’s lunchtime and turned to leave.

Doctor Chiang watched her back, thinking about what Professor He said on the phone.

Professor He asked him: Do you think this person can handle it?

Implying, although Professor He agreed, he seemed to think Dr. Shim from the Capital was perhaps negligent. Approving a medical student to escort a high-risk patient on a flight to the Capital was indeed unusual.

The safest way to escort a patient during a transfer is to hire a certified medical practitioner to accompany and supervise, ideally someone like the doctors from their Provincial People’s Hospital, who have ample experience and skills. The physical examination center of the Provincial People’s Hospital offers similar services. However, arranging for the exam center to spare personnel for such a task requires advance notice, which likely cannot meet Xiao Shugang’s current medical condition and his family’s urgent need.

Why not have the department doctors accompany the transfer or have the 120 emergency center arrange personnel? Because Xiao Shugang’s case falls under hospital transfer treatment, which is outside the 120 center’s emergency vehicle service scope. The transfer ambulance was a non-emergency vehicle found by Doctor Chiang through an ambulance platform. Finding a licensed doctor to accompany the patient throughout the journey on such an ambulance is impossible; due to the same reason, there’s a shortage of staff and tight schedules, they could only manage a nurse to accompany at most.

Considering all this, Professor He did not make other suggestions to the family and felt it seemed somewhat like gambling with the patient’s luck.

In response to Professor He’s question, Doctor Chiang could only trust his intuition and said: The doctors in the Capital aren’t stupid, right?

Those Capitol doctors wouldn’t gamble on luck. If they wanted to gamble, they would’ve suggested Xiao Shugang be transferred there for treatment a long time ago. The turning point came after Xie Wanying’s arrival.

Professor He had heard from Doctor Chiang that this female medical student had a good relationship with Dr. Shim, and also speculated: “Could it be that this person is to stay at Guo Zhi Hospital in the future?”

Otherwise, it wouldn’t explain why Dr. Shim has such high trust in Xie Wanying.

Doctor Chiang shrugged, not ruling out this possibility, just baffled by one thing: “She said she’s a surgery student, not an internal medicine student.”

Professor He: Hmm?

A surgery student having such an unusual relationship with Capital Guozhi’s internal medicine doctor? That’s unheard of.

Anyway, in such high-risk situations, even if someone took the back door through Dr. Shim, they wouldn’t be willing to take this on. It shows that Xie Wanying definitely isn’t using the back door; perhaps she does have some real skills.

People within the industry understand, but those outside might not grasp it.

In the same hospital room, other patients expressed concerns about Xiao Shugang going to the Capital: “Without a doctor accompanying him, you all are going?”

Shang Siling confidently said, “His cousin is accompanying him; it’s the same. His cousin is amazing, a medical student at Guoxie.”

The fellow patient shook his head: Can a student be like a teacher?

No matter what others thought, Shang Siling knew clearly that she and her husband had to seize the opportunity, or they would regret for life.

After hearing he could get treatment in the Capital, Xiao Shugang’s pale and thin face showed a smile, and his eyes brightened, showing some spirit. His painful life finally saw a ray of hope, unlike before when every time a doctor came it felt like Death God had arrived, leaving him terrified.
