Traveling through time and space: Medical skills travel the world

Chapter 119 Determination to Return Home

"Doctor Li, please take a seat." Chen Fang greeted him while making a cup of hot tea, her eyes gentle but firm. "Today we can discuss in depth your doubts and the areas you want to learn."

Li Yang sat down, his eyes gleaming with desire. "Thank you, Dr. Chen. I admire your career, especially your experience in emergency care. I want to know how you stay calm and efficient in such a high-intensity environment?"

"Good adaptability comes from continuous practice and summarization." Chen Fang smiled, leisurely picked up the teacup and took a sip. "I remember one time, a patient who had a serious car accident was sent to the emergency room. At that time, it was so tense that it was suffocating."

Li Yang's eyes were focused on her, expecting her to continue speaking.

"In that situation, I focused on the patient's vital signs and effectively mobilized all team members. Everyone's tasks must be clear, communication must be maintained, and information must be fed back in a timely manner." Chen Fang's eyes gradually flashed with the brilliance of memories, "Finally, we successfully saved the patient's life."

"Wow, this is really admirable teamwork!" Li Yang couldn't help but exclaim, "Then how do you stay calm under such great psychological pressure?"

"First of all, you have to realize that as a doctor, you have a great responsibility, but at the same time, we are also human beings, so it is inevitable that we will feel nervous. At this time, I will take a deep breath and remind myself to stay professional and patient-centered." Chen Fang's tone is very calm. "I focus on the things in front of me instead of imagining the bad results that may occur."

Li Yang carefully took notes, digesting her wisdom in his mind. "Doctor Chen, you mentioned team communication. I also want to improve my teamwork ability. Do you have any suggestions?"

"This is a very important skill!" Chen Fang nodded and thought for a moment. "You can participate in more group discussions or drills to understand the personalities and abilities of team members. In real emergency situations, clear role division and real-time communication are crucial."

"I see. Everyone on the team needs to play to their strengths." Li Yang nodded excitedly, his eyes showing a serious look of thinking. "So how do you make quick decisions when dealing with complex cases?"

"The key to making quick decisions is the accumulation of experience." Chen Fang's tone gradually became serious. "You must always keep learning and adapting to new technologies. I will attend training regularly and follow up on the latest medical research so that I can diagnose the condition more accurately."

Li Yang nodded slightly, and the challenges he faced in the learning process emerged in his mind: "I see, you are working hard to accumulate knowledge every day."

"That's right. Medicine is a lifelong learning process." Chen Fang smiled gently. "Also, as your experience grows, you will gradually form your own judgment system, and your ability to handle cases will naturally improve."

"Can you share with us your learning method?" Li Yang's eyes revealed a thirst for knowledge.

"I like to make a monthly study plan and select some important literature and cases." Chen Fang began to elaborate, "In addition, I will communicate with colleagues regularly to discuss different viewpoints and cases. Such collisions can stimulate new thinking."

"This method is really efficient! I also tried to organize my own learning materials, but I always felt I had no idea where to start." Li Yang nodded in agreement and made a secret decision in his heart.

Chen Fang patiently encouraged: "It will be difficult at the beginning, but if you persist, you will see progress. In addition, attending some professional lectures and advanced courses is also a very good choice."

Li Yang's heart gradually warmed up, as if he saw a bright future ahead: "Thank you, Doctor Chen. I will work hard to improve my abilities and keep your teachings in mind."

"As long as you are persistent, you will achieve success." Chen Fang said in a gentle tone, with hope in her eyes. "I hope you can become an excellent doctor and help more patients."

"Wei, is the plan going well?" Li Hua, Zhang Wei's good friend, happened to be in a small cafe next to the hospital. He looked up and saw Zhang Wei, and hurried over to greet him.

"I just graduated from surgery and I feel like I really have nothing to offer patients." Zhang Wei scratched his head, his eyes revealing a firm idea, "I want to open a clinic."

Li Hua was stunned, and then a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Open a clinic? Are you planning to go back? The conditions there are much worse than here!"

"Yes, but I can't watch ordinary people suffer because of the difficulty in seeing a doctor. I want to change all this." Zhang Wei clenched his fists, as if to cheer himself up.

Li Hua was silent for a while, and finally asked: "Do you know what you are facing? Funding, equipment, and many complicated procedures... It's not easy to open a clinic when you go back!"

"I know." Zhang Wei's eyes were firm, "But I think this is what I should do. Maybe I can mobilize some medical resources and benefit more people."

"You are such an idealist." Li Hua shook his head, his expression showing both admiration and worry. Then he whispered, "If you have made up your mind, I will definitely support you and help you contact resources."

"Thank you, Hua!" Zhang Wei smiled, feeling warm in his heart. "I need your support, especially in terms of funding."

"No problem, I'll help you find connections." Li Hua paused, his eyes becoming serious, "But this road will definitely be difficult, are you ready?"

"I'm ready." Zhang Wei said firmly, "I will put all my efforts into it."

The two discussed Zhang Wei's plan until the sun set and the lights in the cafe gradually came on, only then did they realize that quite a bit of time had passed.

After returning home, Zhang Wei was still thinking on the sofa, recalling the time when he went to the small clinic in town with his parents to see a doctor when he was a child. The doctors at that time were always kind and their warm smiles made people feel at ease. But now, the medical conditions in his hometown make him heartbroken.

"Dad, Mom, I want to go back and open a clinic." Zhang Wei sat at the dining table, his voice low but firm.

His parents looked at each other in surprise, and his mother spoke first: "Wei, it's so good outside. You will have a better future there."

"I used to think so, but when I saw those patients, their waiting eyes made me sad." Zhang Wei looked directly into their eyes and said, "I want to do something. I hope to make a change in my hometown."

The father's wrinkles deepened, and he clenched his fists. "But opening a clinic is risky and will cost a lot of money. Do you have a plan and funds in mind?"

"I have contacted Li Hua, he will help me, and I will try my best to control the cost." Zhang Wei tried to make himself appear confident, although there was still a trace of uneasiness deep in his heart.

"Since you have made up your mind, we as parents will fully support you." The mother sighed softly, and the worry on her face gradually faded. "However, we hope that you can act cautiously and not ignore reality because of your ideals."

"I will, Mom." Zhang Wei nodded, and his heart was resolute again. "Opening a clinic is just the first step. In the future, I hope to build a better medical platform to help more people."
