The postpartum hemorrhage patient needs to be transferred to Beidou Third Hospital for further treatment. Iâm afraid the situation will remain dangerous on the way. Everyone in the ambulance is already exhausted.
We need to replenish our energy. We canât eat what the family sends. Xie Wanying took out biscuits from her pocket and handed them to Student Geng beside her: "Here, take it."
Every bit counts.
This Student Xie is probably always equipped with full "field operation" gear, otherwise, how else could she explain pulling out such snacks from her pockets now? Geng Yongzhe thought to himself that he had learned something, realizing the gap between himself and the truly formidable Student Xie lies in such small details.
Xie Wanying mentioned what her mother said, not to lecture Student Geng, but to share some insights on becoming a good doctor: "You canât skimp on food. Saving lives consumes physical strength. If you collapse first, itâs impossible to be a doctor saving others. Besides, if you skimp on this little expense for food and canât become a doctor, your family will be even more disappointed."
Never lose the larger for the smaller. Both their familiesâ economic conditions arenât great. They can save on other things, but food and basic warm clothing are essentials and cannot be skimped on. Maintaining health is crucial for academic and career success. Itâs not just her mom who says this, but all clinical teachers do. The medical profession pays great attention to physical fitness.
Listening to her talking about her familyâs words, Geng Yongzheâs lips trembled a bit as if he wanted to say something.
Perhaps Student Geng was finally willing to speak up and talk about his own familyâs situation. However, even if Student Geng remained silent, she could understand. For children from poor families, talking about family matters might only be seen as seeking sympathy.
In the end, Geng Yongzhe didnât open his mouth because his phone rang too.
Like Student Xie, his phone was given as a reward by a sponsoring unit, definitely not bought by himself or his family. The call charges on the phone were all topped up by his advisor.
The call was from a classmate. Just past midnight. The boys in the class knew it was their first day working in the Beidu Third Hospital Maternity Department, so they all called late at night before sleeping to inquire about their situation.
Howâs the Beidu Third Hospital Maternity Department? Is it as scary as the rumors say?
Sounds like it is. The number of beds in Beidu Third Hospitalâs maternity department is much more than that of Guoxie, and its reputation has gradually surpassed Guoxieâs. Many patients flock to Beidu Third, while the night shifts in Guoxieâs Obstetrics and Gynecology Department are relatively more relaxed.
"How many beds are there over there?" asked Li Qiâan, who was responsible for holding the phone for the other boys in the class, "Iâm currently rotating in Guoxieâs Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, and today the teacher took us to visit the delivery room, there are only six beds inside."
Donât even mention it. Geng Yongzhe took a deep breath; tonightâs experience was truly beyond words. They were initially just supposed to visit with Teacher Zheng, but soon the two rookies ended up being overworked just as the proverb goes, âthe capable ones do the most work.â
"Wow, over 20 parturient women in there at night waiting to give birth? And rescues, one after another emergency C-sections?" The classmates on the other end chirped like excited sparrows after hearing the scene description.
Student Geng and Student Xie listened to the voices on the other end. It seemed more like their classmates were enjoying the spectacle, and the teasing tone might have had a hint of schadenfreude, leaving them a bit frustrated.
"No such thing." Li Qiâan assured them on behalf of the whole class, "Weâre not making fun of you. Also, Xiao Zhe, being with Yingying, weâve already told you to be prepared. Specifically, you can refer to when I was on night shift together in general surgery with her. Teacher Sun said our luck would definitely not be good, weâd be super busy."
