Chapter 649 - 298: The Weakest Department, Hypokalemia_2
By the looks of it, they are probably short-handed and have brought in a novice nurse from somewhere.
"What’s the matter?"
The older nurse glanced at Li Jingsheng and asked leisurely.
Damn!
Judging by her dim eyesight and arrogant attitude, she probably has no idea who Li Jingsheng is.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be treating Li Jingsheng with such an attitude.
"Director Kuo asked me to come over for a consultation!"
Li Jingsheng said directly.
Damn it, seeing such arrogant old nurses, he really feels like whipping them.
If a patient rings the bell, this kind of old nurse would surely handle it sluggishly.
She might even send an intern nurse to deal with it.
If there’s any problem, she’s tougher than the family members, shifting all the blame onto them and the patients.
Such nurses will only behave when faced with hot-tempered family members.
They might slap you at any disagreement.
"Room 6103!"
After hearing him out, she still reported a room number leisurely.
It’s the sixth floor, all the rooms start with six.
Li Jingsheng was puzzled; consultations are rarely held in rooms, typically in offices or consultation rooms.
Also, it’s convenient for displaying PPT images.
6127, 6126...
He searched room by room.
It’s really a waste of time, but judging by the arrogant face of the old nurse, he’s sure that asking more questions would only provoke her impatience.
Reached the end, Room 6104.
Opposite is a small room for storing cleaning tools like mops.
No room 6103!
Li Jingsheng started walking back, checked all the rooms, water dispensers, dining areas, and washrooms again, but still couldn’t find Room 6103.
"Miss, could you be mistaken? I didn’t see Room 6103!"
His tone carried a hint of anger this time.
Lives are at stake, he left his patients from the clinic far away to save someone, and this nurse acts so haughtily; it’s infuriating.
"Wait!"
She was busy with her head down, who knows what she was looking at on the computer.
Li Jingsheng instinctively leaned in to see what she was doing.
To his surprise, she was browsing images for identifying authentic LV bucket bags.
Seeing Li Jingsheng peeking at her screen, the older nurse instantly became angry.
"What are you doing?"
"I’d rather ask what you’re doing! I was invited by Director Kuo to come help save someone, you’re all impatient and gave me a wrong room number. I’ve never seen such a work attitude before."
Li Jingsheng was extremely angry.
Any doctor with a bit of integrity would find it unbearable.
"Why are you yelling at me? Room 6103 is over there, you can’t find it and you’re shouting at me; stupid just like a pig, what a shame!"
The nurse even used English words to insult him.
Li Jingsheng was barely holding himself back from punching her in the face.
"Damn it, knowing Room 6103 is on the other side, why didn’t you say so earlier? If anything happens to that patient, you’re the murderer!"
Li Jingsheng hurriedly ran towards the other side.
At this moment, his phone rang again.
"Dr. Li, have you arrived? My patient here is quite anxious; could you please help?"
It was Director Kuo, speaking almost in a pleading tone.
You could hear he was genuinely concerned about the patient’s condition.
"I’m here, I’m here; the nurse here didn’t explain clearly, causing me to go to the wrong place."
"I’ll definitely speak to her later; I’ll pick you up!"
Director Kuo surprisingly took a protective stance towards the nurse upon hearing this.
This instantly gave Li Jingsheng a poor impression of the department.
Save the patient first.
Next time he’ll definitely not come.
He can’t handle such a rotten department.
On the other side of the corridor, he indeed found three more rooms, numbered 6101, 02, and 03.
A skinny old man, wearing a white coat, with deep beard stubble and messy gray hair.
If not for the white coat, one would think he’s a destitute old man.
He seems to be over sixty.
"Dr. Li, finally, we’ve been waiting for you! The patient is inside, please have a look."
No unnecessary pleasantries, seeing Li Jingsheng was like seeing a savior.
Li Jingsheng wondered, the way Director Kuo presented himself was totally focused on the patient’s welfare like a good doctor. Why would he be so protective of the nurse?
Confused, he must not ask any further questions.
Entering the ward, there are four beds, two vacant.
On one bed lies a male patient in his forties.
His face looks slightly ashen, with a tinge of cyanosis, breathing rapidly, and his breath sounds heavy.
Indicating he’s struggling to breathe.
An oxygen tube is attached to one nostril.
Single-nostril oxygen delivery is commonly used in clinical practice to manage patients with respiratory difficulties and low oxygen saturation.
The general rescue approach in Western medicine is first to stabilize the patient’s vital signs and then seek the cause for targeted treatment.
This method has proven effective in clinical practice, indeed saving many lives.
Faced with critical patients, failing to stabilize them can lead to death in no time.
"Seems there’s a respiratory issue, didn’t you call Director Mu for a consultation?"
Li Jingsheng is competent in the respiratory field.
His respiratory diagnosis is mature, at a level equivalent to an associate senior doctor.
"I did, he asked me to invite you to have a look."
The family member was a woman in her forties, probably the patient’s wife.
