Chapter 413 New Job, Female Doctor

As a modern society, especially a densely populated super city, it is similar to a city like New York. In fact, they are all facing very real and serious problems.

That is the lack of public medical resources. Almost the larger the super city, the more crowded the population, the more this problem will be faced.

In fact, since the history of human civilization, medical problems have never been truly solved. Regardless of any civilization, any country. Almost all races are facing the problem of insufficient medical resources.

Because a doctor's job is to save lives. Therefore, in any era, a doctor is a profession with a high social status, which has not changed since ancient times.

In modern society, although the development of different regions is different, the skew of medical resources is serious. It is extremely criticized that a small number of big cities have most of the high-quality medical resources.

But even so, in fact, the medical resources in the super big cities are still quite scarce, because everyone has the possibility of getting sick or getting injured.

Especially with tens of millions of people crowded in a narrow city, this ultra-high-density living condition is actually more prone to various urban diseases and injuries. This is not alarmist talk.

Numerous practical examples have proved this point. Most people are after big cities, all kinds of hidden benefits in developed cities. Such as medical care, such as education. This is also the main reason why most people leave their hometowns and come to big cities like New York or Shanghai to make a living.

Because of the uneven distribution of resources, many people have to do this. But many people don't actually know the hidden benefits such as medical treatment they are after. In fact, the medical system in big cities has long been overwhelmed.

Take Shanghai, China, for example, which is one of the most densely populated cities in the world. The statistical population is 26 million, but the actual population is far more than this number.

In such a huge city, the number of emergency 120 ambulances running in the city is less than 500 every day. Many people actually do not receive first aid at all when they do need it.

And Shanghai is not an exception. Because New York in the United States is not much better than Shanghai. Public first aid resources are also extremely scarce in this world-renowned city.

Thor was able to successfully join the ambulance team in Strange's hospital and become a stretcher bearer in the car, largely because of this. Because there is a real shortage of manpower.

Stretcher bearers don't require much special expertise. The main thing is to be physically strong and able to move the wounded. Especially in the United States, a country where people are generally overweight.

Then it is to master the most basic trauma dressing methods, which can help emergency doctors deal with simple wounds. It can be said that on these two points, Thor has met the conditions, so it is not surprising that he was selected as the ambulance stretcher.

The standard equipment of an ambulance is a driver, a doctor on board, and a stretcher bearer. Sometimes the driver also needs to act as a stretcher bearer to help the stretcher bearer transport patients together. Especially when the physical strength of the doctor on board is not enough.

It sounds like the job of a stretcher bearer is quite simple, but why can't people be recruited? After all, this is a very stressful job, and the working hours are extremely irregular.

Many people think that when the ambulance is fine, it is parked in the hospital, and a group of people are chatting and farting in the lounge. Only go out when you get a call. This idea is far from reality.

Due to the shortage of emergency resources, in fact, as long as the regular ambulance starts to operate, it is impossible to have time to stop and rest. Sometimes there is not even a fixed meal time.

And Thor joined such a job. He thought that after getting rid of Li Jie, he could relax a bit. But in fact, he will find that he is still broken. In fact, the difficulty and pressure of the work made him feel that it would be easier to carry out Li Jie's hell training.

"Dr. Christine, are you the on-board doctor today?" Rosen, the driver of Thor's ambulance team, said.

Rosen is a stocky, typical American in his fifties. And the doctor Christine he asked was a beautiful doctor with long black hair.

Christine tied her long black hair into a ponytail, looking smart and capable. She still had half a slice of toast in her mouth, and she looked like she hadn't had breakfast yet.

Thor had a little impression of this female doctor. This female doctor seemed to be the doctor that Dr. Strange wanted to date yesterday.

"Yes, Rosen, because Almond quit. We have fewer and fewer emergency doctors." Christine said helplessly.

This is the helplessness of the emergency doctors, because the long-term work pressure on the front line of emergency treatment is huge. But because every time it is the first aid, it will be transferred to the corresponding expert doctor after the first aid.

This makes the reputation and income of emergency doctors far inferior to that of expert doctors. Because of the disproportionate contribution and return, many emergency doctors will choose to change careers in the end.

Such was the case with this Dr. Almond. A small hospital was willing to hire him as an attending doctor, so he immediately quit his job here. Christine has no way to make any comments on this.

"Oh, by the way, Dr. Christine, this is our new stretcher bearer. His name is Thor." The driver Rosen introduced them.

"Hello." Christine greeted Thor simply: "When you need to do something later, remember to be faster. Huh? You should have a lot of strength." Christine Looking at the fat Thor with some uncertainty.

Thor tried his best to put on a strong posture: "Just leave it to me to do the hard work." Although Thor is fat, he has no foundation after all. Power and speed are actually not slow. It can be said that it is a bit like Sammo Hung when he was young. The same is a flexible, fast, and very strong fat man.

Christine just nodded at Thor's words. She appears to be a very capable woman without too much nonsense. When the order to get out of the car came, she also got into the ambulance directly, and ate the rest of her breakfast and the half slice of toast in the car.

Thor's first gear at his new job involves a car accident in which a taxi driver is hit by a van that appears sideways. The taxi was directly hit and scrapped. After the firefighters rescued the driver, they found that his vital signs were rapidly disappearing.

When Thor came to the scene with the ambulance, the driver was on the verge of death due to traumatic bleeding.

"Hurry up guys!" When they arrived at the scene, Christine was the first to rush out of the car door.

Thor and Rosen followed Christine with a first aid kit and a stretcher. But Christine ran like a gust of wind, and Thor could hardly keep up with her.

When Christine rushed to the injured man's side, he found that the arteries in his legs had been pierced by the metal of the car door. Now the metal is still on the leg and cannot be removed. Once it is taken off, there will be a lot of blood loss, which will be fatal.

Christine stretched out her hand behind her without looking back: "Bleeding bandage!" Thor had just rushed behind Christine at this time. She seemed to have eyes in the back of her head.

"Oh, okay!" Thor immediately took out the hemostatic bandage from the first aid kit and handed it to Christine. After all, Thor knew things like first aid bandages.

Because of the metal penetration, Christine was unable to bandage the wound. She could only hold the wound with a hemostatic bandage.

However, the condition of the injured is not optimistic. She glanced at the wounded man and found that he already had signs of dilated pupils. She yelled to Thor: "Come and press the wound."

When Thor replaced Christine and began to press the wounded wound. Christine began to rescue the wounded with cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

"Breathe! Breathe!" Christine pressed the injured man's chest very rhythmically. But the injured have tended to be unable to breathe on their own.

Christine immediately started double rescue of artificial respiration and cardiopulmonary resuscitation for the injured. It took a full forty seconds for the wounded to resume breathing on their own.

"Oxygen!" Christine called to the driver Rosen, and Rosen immediately handed a portable oxygen bag respirator to Christine.

After putting on the oxygen respirator for the wounded, under Christine's command. Thor and Rosen carefully carried the injured onto the stretcher. Finally sent to the ambulance.

In the process of transporting the injured, Christine observed the breathing, heartbeat and pulse of the injured throughout the process. Confirm the viability of the casualty's vital signs. Her serious expression reminded Thor of the expressions of soldiers before countless wars.

For Christine, this might be her battlefield.

After transporting the injured to the nearest hospital, handing over to the hospital. Before the three of Thor could rest, they received the next task.

A man suffered from epilepsy in a park. Epilepsy is a very dangerous disease, when the whole body convulses. The most dangerous place is the possibility of biting off one's own tongue during convulsions.

The man with the onset had no medical history before, and it may be a sudden illness. Because he was a big man with a height of nearly two meters and a weight of more than 110 kilograms, the passers-by around him couldn't suppress his twitching at all.

"Thor, hold him down!" Christine looked at the twitching big man, then glanced at Thor, who was also huge, and ordered immediately.

"Oh." Although he didn't like the order very much, Thor glanced at Christine and helped her suppress the patient.

Let Christine successfully inject a special sedative for the patient. Relieved muscle cramps and twitches in this big guy.

In the ambulance, Thor looked at the foam on his clothes and felt sick. It was stuck to his clothes when the guy was foaming at the mouth.

"Don't wipe this kind of thing with your hands, there are antiseptic cotton in the box." Christine glanced at Thor and knew what he was thinking.

"Thank you." Thor found the disinfectant cotton: "Do you deal with these people every day? This is really not a good job." Thor felt that this job was not very pleasant after he had just come into contact with two patients.

"Some jobs have to be done by someone." Christine didn't answer Thor's question directly. She just gave Thor a deep look. Then he took out a piece of chocolate from his jacket pocket and handed it to him.

"We probably don't have time for lunch."

Thor paid attention to the time. It had already been a morning just to rescue two patients, and it was almost 1:30 in the afternoon.

Christine took out a piece of chocolate and ate it in small bites. Thor noticed that her hands were very slender, and some traces of blood vessels could be seen under the smooth skin.

Just like what Christine said, their work was so busy that there was no time to stop and rest at noon. The last lunch was just a rush to buy a hot dog on the side of the road.

In the afternoon, Thor and Christine rescued a girl who wanted to commit suicide because of a broken relationship. She cut her own veins and turned on the tap to stop the blood from clotting.

When her parents found her, she had lost blood and passed out. Christine gave her an emergency blood transfusion in the car.

Then there is a middle-aged man who started binge eating because of unemployment, and he ingested a lot of food in the restaurant. Because of overeating, some food stuck in the trachea, causing him to be unable to breathe.

Christine tried every means to help him remove the foreign body. Following this small ambulance, Thor saw all kinds of people in this world.

Of course, not all rescues will necessarily save lives. On the last outing today, they got a call from a young man who was caught under the wheel of a car while riding his bike.

His legs were completely crushed, and the blood from the wound could not be stopped. Despite Christine's best efforts, she tried to stop the young man from bleeding. Attempt to give him an emergency blood transfusion. Give him CPR. Even after the heart stopped beating, he tried to defibrillate him.

But even so, there is no way to save this young life. His blood-stained face looked remarkably youthful. She looked less than twenty years old.

When he was sent to the hospital and declared completely dead, Thor took a look at Christine. He knew how hard the female doctor had worked just now, and he was afraid to see her disappointed expression.

But Chris just sighed slightly, turned her head and left. In the ambulance, Christine's hands were trembling.

That was when she had just performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the young man uninterruptedly, causing her hands to lose strength.

"Christine, are you okay?" Thor looked at the trembling Christine and asked.

"It's okay, big man." Christine replied.

"I'm sorry, Christine. That young man was not rescued." Thor was used to seeing death, after all, it was either you or me on the battlefield. He said this only to comfort Christine.

Because today's female doctor's performance made him feel admirable. For the first time let him abandon gender prejudice.

"This is war, and I'm a soldier. There are always winners and losers in war." What Christine said made Thor feel a little different.

"Huh?" He couldn't figure out why Christine thought it was war, and she was a soldier? Thor is a fierce man who has really been on the battlefield and captured the flag.

Christine smiled wearily: "Since I swore an oath to the medical book, I will devote my whole life to curing diseases and saving lives, regardless of the other party's poverty or wealth. Regardless of the other party's race or gender. Regardless of their age or belief."

"This is my oath of war. I will fight sickness with my life, and I will fight death with all my energy. I will fight the medical environment with what I have learned throughout my life. This battle will not end until I die." Chrissy Ding said calmly.

"I'm not going to hang my head down over a loss. Because this fight is a long way off."

Compared with the Doctor Strange I saw yesterday, although he recommended this job, Thor didn't have any good feelings for him.

But for Christine Thor, he suddenly felt that this person was not bad.

Thor looked at Christine, and suddenly he said out of nowhere: "Strange is not a good person, you'd better not date him."

This sentence, which has nothing to do with the context, made Christine a little unresponsive: "Huh? What?"
