My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

He is no longer the 'orphan' with no one to cherish him.

Even if the Emergency Department has recruited him for his talent, he remains grateful to the Emergency Department.

A strong sense of belonging.

"No matter which department's resident doctors come to rotate in our Emergency Department, we always train them wholeheartedly and treat them equally. Zhou Can trained with your Orthopedics Department, and you are well aware of whether his performance was outstanding. According to my understanding, he should be the most excellent one among the eighteen doctors who came for Orthopedic training."

Director Lou must have done a lot of homework before making a fuss in the hospital office.

At least he has gotten to the bottom of things.

He and Dr. Xu never fight a battle they are not sure of winning.

"But suddenly you reassigned him to do miscellaneous tasks in the clinic. Is that fair? Director Xie, usually due to the large size and high status of your department, I give way to you. But this time, if you can't even accommodate one of our Emergency Department's resident doctors, fearing he will learn the skills and make our Emergency Department stronger—"

"I, Lou Jingshan, have brought my resignation letter and appointment letter today. If the Emergency Department can't be accommodated, then what's the point of having it? Either dissolve it directly, or you, Director Xie, come to be the big boss of this Emergency Department."

Director Lou making such a scene in the hospital office truly has the air of rising up in defiance.

These years, perhaps the continuous suppression by other departments has forced the Emergency Department to live humbly.

He has put up with this for many years.

The incident with Zhou Can being oppressed became the last straw.

It completely ignited his emotions.

Even the resignation letter was prepared.

This do-or-die stance really scared Director Xie.

As the big boss of surgery, he holds a high position with significant power and substantial income. Although he falls a bit short academically, in surgery and treatment, he is a heavy-hitter in the medical field.

If Director Lou really throws in the towel and quits.

Then it becomes known to the hospital leadership that he, Director Xie, due to his narrow-mindedness, drove away the director of the Emergency Department.

And then they appoint him to take on the heavy responsibilities of the Emergency Department.

That would truly be foolish.

No matter how skilled a doctor is academically, or how strong their surgical abilities, they are nothing in front of the organization.

Director Xie, in his high position, is clearer about this than anyone else.

Last time he vied for credit in the Emergency Department, not only did he not get any benefits, but he also incurred a bit of dissatisfaction from Dean Zhu.

Director Xie is very aware of this.

It's better to tread carefully, stay low-key, and not stir up any serious trouble.

The hospital's upper management primarily wants stability.

If he keeps stirring things up, won't the higher-ups deal with him, or should they wait until he causes trouble again?

Thinking of this, Director Xie already had some regret in his heart.

It's just a resident doctor, right?

Is there any need to be so afraid?

Director Xie also felt that he had a lapse in judgment that day, resulting in an overreaction unworthy of his status.

In reality, it wasn't that he had a lapse in judgment.

Rather, with a hopeful and arrogant mindset, he was blindly testing the waters.

Perhaps he didn't expect that Director Lou would not only stand up for Zhou Can but was even prepared to go all-in, having his resignation letter ready.

It wasn't just him who was taken aback, but also Director Fang.

"Director Lou, the Emergency Department has been doing well under your leadership. You can't just throw in the towel. If there are problems, our hospital administration will definitely solve them." Director Fang was not someone who would usually take a stance.

But now he had to take a stance.

Old Lou was offended and preparing to quit.

If he leaves, who will take over his position?

There are plenty of doctors with mediocre skills and management abilities, and these people might clamor to be the big boss of the Emergency Department.

But can they manage the Emergency Department well?

A department head must not only have high management skills but also strong medical expertise.

Finding a second Director Lou would not be easy.

Those with high medical skills don't want the job, and those without the skills can't do it.

The rescue rate of the Emergency Department not only represents the face of the hospital but is also a very important scoring index.

"Director You, you have to explain this matter clearly to Director Lou. Otherwise, it will be difficult to justify it to Dean Zhu and Vice Director Ye." Director Fang didn't dare to do anything to Director Xie and could only turn the spearhead towards the Orthopedics' Director You.

She could handle this person.

"Actually, there was no malice involved, and it was not at all what Director Lou thought. Our Orthopedics Department is eager to cultivate more top-notch doctors for the hospital. It's just that Dr. Zhou Can has fully mastered the knowledge and skills a resident should acquire in the Orthopedic surgery room. We wanted to enhance his comprehensive abilities in the remaining dozen or so days, which is why we arranged for him to be trained in the clinic."

"Far from being suppression, it's actually special care for Dr. Zhou."

To become a director of a general department, management ability is the most important.

Medical skills are secondary.

Just look at Director You's smooth talk, turning death into life.

"From what I understand, since Dr. Zhou was transferred to the outpatient clinic, he has been learning osteopathic manipulative treatment skills in the manual reduction room. If we really wanted to suppress him, we should have assigned him to do chores like dispensing medicine or fetching test reports."

Director You tried hard to defend himself.

Every move of Zhou Can in the outpatient clinic, Director You knew everything clearly.

It seems he has been paying quite a bit of attention to this small fry, Zhou Can!

"Don't try to talk yourself up by shifting him from the surgery room to doing odd jobs in the clinic, no one is a fool."

Director Lou retorted angrily.

"Director You just said something good, that there's no malice against Zhou Can. I also believe that both Orthopedic and General Surgery can accommodate a resident, as well as people from other departments who come for further training. Medical skills are for saving lives and treatment, not to be held as chips for interests. Zhou Can's residency time in Orthopedics has only a few days left, so there's no need to delve into who's right or wrong anymore."

After understanding the general course of the incident, Director Fang made a serious concluding statement.

"Dr. Zhou will continue his residency in various surgical departments, and I will keep an eye on this matter. The demands of Director Lou of the Emergency Department aren't high; we just hope for fair and just treatment when staff from Emergency Department rotate to other departments for their residency. Surgery has this obligation, and so do Internal Medicine, Pediatrics… all departments have this obligation."

The Director of Hospital Affairs spoke much more sternly than the head of the Medical Department.

She wasn't joking around.

Instead, she was directly mediating the conflict between the two sides, defending the legitimate demands of the Emergency Department.

She didn't say a word against Director Xie throughout the meeting.

However, the implicit warning was enough for Director Xie to curb his arrogant and domineering attitude and humbly accept her advice.

If he continued to act recklessly, the next person to talk to him might not be the Director of Hospital Affairs, but possibly the hospital leadership.

"Directors Fang and Lou, I want to make a statement today: Surgery will never engage in such narrow-minded actions of rejecting others. I will pay more attention to Zhou Can's residency from now on. It is every department's duty to cultivate a continuous succession of talent for the hospital, and all surgical departments will firmly implement this."

If you're getting scolded, you have to stand up straight.

If you've made a mistake and don't admit it, you're going to get hit even harder.

Director Xie's statement served as a promise to Directors Fang, Lou, and Dr. Zhou.

Actually, it's common for various hospital departments to have minor frictions and disputes of interest.

If the matter is minor, usually the heads of the hospital's major departments communicate with each other and control the disagreements. If it gets a bit more serious, the Medical Department steps in to mediate.

Once the issue has escalated to the level of major department directors, it's typically resolved by the Office of Hospital Affairs or a Vice Director in charge of the relevant business.

The Dean seldom gets involved.

However, once the Dean intervenes, the consequences can be quite severe.

At the very least, it ends with a disciplinary conversation, which is already considered a sanction.

"It's good that Director Xie has actively made a statement to support the hospital's development and talent cultivation. However, these things must be put into practice. Some things, if not weighed, don't seem significant; once weighed, they could be as heavy as a thousand pounds."

Director Fang was quite satisfied with Director Xie's statement.

She not only spoke with weight but also with great skill.

In fact, those who can sit in the Office Director's position are very capable.

Many hospital office directors are the successors to Deputy Deans.

There are even some remarkable individuals who successfully compete for the position of Dean.

However, in hospitals like the one Tu Ya is in, where Deans are appointed from above and the likelihood of being parachuted in is higher, the chance of promotion from within is smaller.

After the mediation was concluded, Director Xie left with an unhappy face.

Director You was sweating profusely.

Probably, he would never want to visit the Hospital Affairs Office again.

The invisible pressure exerted by Director Fang was exceedingly terrifying.

The head of the Orthopedics Department is not irreplaceable.

On the other hand, a major department head is difficult to shake. Because the directors of smaller departments aren't particularly expected to have high professional skills; it's primarily about management ability.

There are many departments where deputy directors, and even attending physicians, act as the head of the department.

But to become the head of a major department, not just anyone can fill that role.

They are all heavyweights in their respective medical fields.
