856 Imposing Manner (1/2)

\”Preoperative items which are required, such as curing tape, instruments pack, and stepping stools need to be placed in the operating theater beforehand. Ah… prepare a few more stepping stools. Doctor Yu Yuan will participate in the surgery as well. Make sure you check on the number of stepping stools.\” Zuo Cidian gave instructions seriously based on the task given to him by Ling Ran.

Xiang Xueming had performed continuous surgeries before. However, when he thought about wanting to equip the Bazhaixiang hospital branch with the facilities required for continuous surgeries, he wanted to claw at his own face. At this time, he could only ask about the important things, \”How many stepping stools are needed?\”

\”Depends on your willingness to bend your body.\” Zuo Cidian eyed Xiang Xueming, and he sighed in slight envy. \”Look at you. If you work as Doctor Yu's assistant, how many stepping stools do you think will be suitable for Doctor Yu?\”

Xiang Xueming imagined Yu Yuan's height, and he could not help but take a deep breath. \”More is good.\”

\”Do you think you're Han Xin or something[1]?\” Zuo Cidian laughed, turned his head around, and said, \”Five are enough for sure. If the surgery time is short, two should be enough.\”

Xiang Xueming imagined the scenario of Yu Yuan using just one stepping stool. 'If Doctor Yu Yuan adjusts the operating table to the height she is comfortable with and asks me to become her assistant, I will have to curl up so much that I turn into a prawn.'

Xiang Xueming shook his head hard. \”We can still get things like stepping stools at Bazhaixiang hospital branch. No problem. I will keep that in mind for any operating theaters Doctor Yu will be in.\”

Zuo Cidian smiled and nodded, then he turned around and said to Su Jiafu, \”It's the same case for anesthetists. Try to reduce the frequency of going in and out during surgery. This is the main point that the Bazhaixiang hospital branch needs to change at this moment. Refilling the anesthetics twice a day should be enough, right?\”

\”That should be enough.\” Su Jiafu's head was in a mess. He was an anesthetist who had his head wrapped in clouds in Yun Hua Hospital. It was already good enough when he could finish his work accordingly every day without having to work overtime and losing his stools, which meant that he never had to bother about replenishing the supply of anesthetics and other matters.

However, in such a small hospital, there were not many supporting staff and fixed rules, and everybody needed to learn on their own.

Nonetheless, everyone, including Su Jiafu was very happy with it.

A chance to practice like this was extremely precious. Only in a place like Bazhaixiang hospital branch and Ling Ran showing up would allow them to use an entire hospital to practice, no matter how small that hospital was. They could not do it on their own without someone experienced to help them, because while the adjustments on the regulations in a small hospital were simpler than in a big hospital, if there was no experienced doctor, a junior doctor with normal skills would not be able to handle it either.

These doctors might not be happy if they were sent to work in such a small hospital, but if they received such a chance to practice their skills while they were providing support, it was naturally the best thing that could possibly happen to them.

Zuo Cidian continued to give explanations to the nurses and working staff, and the head nurse who also came stood next to him and listened as well.

They always performed surgeries back to back, but all of them needed to fumble about to understand how to manage this in a practical and detailed manner.

Zuo Cidian gave instructions such as telling them to be gentle when draping, changing the gauze and cleaning the basin, among others. When he finished giving his instructions, he took a sip of water and asked, \”Do you want to try?\”

\”Yes, we can try.\”

Everyone, including the young nurses, was slightly excited.

The head nurse also went off for work with sparkling eyes.

As of now, the medical staff who could support the Bazhaixiang hospital branch were all doctors and nurses from Yun Hua Hospital. Even the care workers came from Yun Hua Hospital.

There was nothing to do about it. They were the earliest batch to come over, and the frequency in which the helicopters came by was also high. On the day Xiang Xueming asked for help, Yun Hua Hospital also filled up the Bazhaixiang hospital branch. When a few hospitals were able to free up hands to help came later, once they confirmed that land transportation was not available, they were forced to rent helicopters, and by then, they could only go to clinics with worse conditions.

That made Yun Hua Hospital the main force supporting Bazhaixiang.

Once that support was completed, the honor they gained would be enough to make everyone be on cloud nine, and the other hospitals could not even say anything about it.

People like Xiang Xueming in the Bazhaixiang hospital branch did not feel unhappy too.

Upgrading the hospital was still something good at the end of the day. Previously, it was impossible for them to ask Yun Hua Hospital to help, and being in a village hospital was the most demotivating thing for a doctor. Even if people like Xiang Xueming were still willing to spend money and time to hire freelance surgeons to improve their skills, they could not help feeling down after working for two to three years in this sort of place.
