medical center.

in the ward.

Adam intubated the elderly woman who had stopped breathing.

The temporary nurse stood aside in a daze.

Have you graduated yet?

After successfully rescuing the old woman, Adam looked at the young temporary nurse.

Ok.

The temporary nurse said embarrassedly: Is this rescued?

Ok.

Adam nodded.

awesome!

The temporary nurse cried happily, and then stopped embarrassingly under Adam's gaze.

But she remembered that she was not helpful at all.

And she was supposed to help.

Can you do me a favor?

Adam didn't scold her harshly, and smiled.

It is normal for a student who has not yet graduated to be stupid and confused when encountering life and death rescue.

Uh-huh!

The temporary nurse nodded without asking.

Help me take care of her.

Adam smiled and pointed to the old woman who was breathing steadily: Call me if you have any questions, my name is Adam Duncan.

it is good!

The temporary nurse immediately agreed, and waited until Adam walked out of the ward, then mustered up the courage to look at Adam's back and said softly: My name is Zoe.

after an hour.

Zoe, what's the matter?

Adam received the call and came to check on the old woman's condition, and found that the secretary of the chief of surgery was also there: Jessie, you are also here.

Temporary nurse Zoe was happy that Adam remembered her name, but also felt guilty for causing some trouble to Adam because she found the old woman's medical records.

Dr. Duncan, did you intubate her?

Chief Secretary Jesse looked at Adam helplessly.

right.

Adam nodded: She has stagnation of breathing, I have to intubate her first aid, what's the problem?

Dr. Duncan, you asked me to take care of her. I saw that her medical records were not here, so I went to look for them. It took me a long time to find them.

The temporary nurse Zoe looked apologetic.

Mrs Bickham has been diagnosed with terminal chronic lung disease and she is in a hospice.

Chief secretary Jesse explained: Give up rescue, give up cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

In the United States, hospice care institutions such as hospice for the elderly are for the comfort of patients, and usually give up rescue and let patients die naturally.

Oh.

Adam suddenly.

You intubated Grace?

He intubated Grace?

He intubated Grace!

At this time, three old women walked in, and each of them became more excited when they heard the news.

You idiot! You should let her die!

One of the tall old women smashed Adam from behind with a satchel, cursing.

Ma'am, don't get excited.

Adam moved his body and easily avoided the sneak attack. Facing the three old women, he frowned and said, The patient's medical records are not here, I don't know...

You do not know?!

The tall old woman didn't hit it, and almost dodged her waist, which shows how much force was used. Seeing this, she cursed angrily: How dare you hide?!

Speak up if you have something to say.

Adam said indifferently: Unknowingly, I saw a patient dying. As a doctor, I immediately rescued him. What's the problem?

She said not to put on a ventilator!

said an old woman.

You should have let her die peacefully.

Another old woman said.

Who told you to save it?!

The tall old woman who sneaked up on her scolded, Mind your own business!

Jessie?

Adam didn't bother to pay attention to them and looked at the chief secretary.

Three, don't get excited, Dr. Duncan also doesn't know.

Chief Secretary Jesse said with a headache: You should know when you come in that the nurses in our hospital are on strike collectively, and there is a problem with the handover of medical records...

I do not care!

The tall old woman said grumpily: He intubated Grace, against her wishes, he must apologize!

Doctor Duncan?

Jesse, the director's secretary, looked at Adam, and his eyes indicated that one thing more is worse than one thing less.

May I ask who are you patients?

Adam didn't answer, but looked at the three old women and asked blankly.

In normal times, he would definitely apologize directly on the basis of the principle that more things are worse than less things.

After all, he did do bad things with good intentions.

And he also gets a +0.01 system reward.

But the tall old lady's attitude, regardless of it, beat and scolded, and wanted Adam to apologize?

Even Adam, who has always been good-tempered, couldn't accept it.

This is not a joke!

We're friends with Grace.

said an old woman.

Do you think there is a problem with me saving people without knowing it?

Adam said in a deep voice: Or when the patient is dying, I can't know whether she has signed a DNR (non-rescue agreement), so I should choose to sit on the sidelines?

this……

After the other two old women got over the initial shock, they also understood that Adam could not be blamed, so they couldn't help but hesitate.

You should have known!

The tall old woman didn't care about it, and said directly: This is your responsibility. Grace is not willing to accept rescue, but you just can't rescue! If you do something wrong, you have to apologize! Otherwise, be careful and I will sue you!

That's nothing to talk about.

Adam spread his hands and said: You are not the patient's family, you can contact the patient's family first, the patient is still in a coma, as long as the family agrees, she can still be euthanized.

As for suing me?

This is the contact information of my personal lawyer, you can send the lawyer letter directly to him.

He will handle it.

It's not good to keep taking money and not doing things.

Do you have any other questions?

As soon as these words came out, the air suddenly became quiet.

Even the tall and violent old woman was overwhelmed.

In the United States.

Family doctors are very common.

After all, people are bound to suffer from three disasters and nine disasters.

But not everyone has a private lawyer.

Ordinary families, who has nothing to do, always have a lawyer?

Either that troubles the family.

Either a wealthy family.

And judging from Adam's meaning, it is clearly the second most difficult to mess with!

The tall and violent old woman, when she first met Adam, a young doctor, she didn't respect him, and felt reasonable, she wanted to rely on the old to sell the old, to vent her anger for the old sister, and let the 'culprit' vent a few times before she vented.

Even a young doctor like Adam didn't dare to say anything.

When he saw that Adam dodged and almost missed her waist, he became even more angry.

I have to ask Adam for an explanation.

But now, she suddenly calmed down.

Years of life experience told her that peace is the most important thing.

It seems that there is no problem.

Adam nodded expressionlessly: Zoe, the patient's family is here, let me know.

After finishing speaking, he left directly.

Yannis, shall we contact Grace's daughter Alice?

An old woman reminded in a low voice.

correct.

Another old woman echoed: What's the matter, let Alice make the decision, she is Grace's daughter, even though she is a lesbian.

The doctor didn't do anything wrong.

Seeing that the tall old woman was a little embarrassed and unable to come down, the two old women persuaded: He doesn't know, isn't it right to save people, Yannis, your daughter and granddaughter, if this happens, don't you I hope the doctor doesn't care about anything, save them first and then talk about it?

Pooh!

The tall old woman scolded: You are not allowed to curse my daughter and granddaughter!

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Jesse, the chief secretary, also came over to say a few words. After vaguely reminding Adam that he was not just a young doctor, the atmosphere became even better.

The tall old woman realized that she probably shouldn't have caused trouble for her daughter and granddaughter, and wondered if she should apologize to Adam.

The world is so beautiful, but I am so irritable, which is not good or bad.
