Chapter 380: Chapter 217: Inadequate Ability?
Lu Cheng’s eyebrows instantly furrowed, and his tone even seemed a bit amused: "Teacher Zhao, are you saying that because this patient died, their condition at the scene was the most critical?"
"Who gave you such a conclusion or who reported this to you?"
Zhao Hetong chuckled lightly: "The person couldn’t be saved, isn’t that serious enough?"
Lu Cheng took a deep breath and said, "How should I address you, Teacher Zhao? May I call you leader?"
Zhao Hetong said, "Dr. Lu, you just need to explain why you made such a choice back then."
Lu Cheng straightforwardly said: "Leader, I didn’t have the capability to save him."
"So I didn’t even dare to touch this patient! His death has no direct relation with me."
Lu Cheng’s direct words left Zhao Hetong at a loss.
If Lu Cheng’s lack of ability was a fault, then everyone watching would be held accountable too.
Zhao Hetong didn’t hear words like misjudgment or indifference that he wanted, which made him a bit angry: "Dr. Lu, in such a situation, did you make such a judgment?"
"Yes, we doctors also have our expertise and treatment preferences."
"I often deal with things I’m confident in."
"For things I can’t handle, I wouldn’t dare to trouble the following teachers."
"Leader, there’s no problem with that, right? Even though the situation was an emergency, I didn’t violate the principle of do no harm."
As Lu Cheng spoke, he quietly moved closer to Mu Nanshu and asked her to hand over her phone, quickly turning on the recording function.
Zhao Hetong explained, "Dr. Lu, you are a professional medical staff member; we’ve verified that." freēwēbηovel.c૦m
"Since you understand emergency avoidance, you can be more precise; there’s no need for you to bear responsibility. It’s easier for us to give an account as well."
"In any case, we are grateful for your righteous actions, Dr. Lu."
Lu Cheng followed suit and said, "Leader, you are too kind. I just did what I should. It’s just that my abilities were lacking and couldn’t achieve perfection, which disappointed you."
"I just hope you don’t blame me for not doing well."
Seeing that Lu Cheng was impervious to persuasion, Zhao Hetong said, "So, Dr. Lu, in that situation, were you also calm and clear-headed?"
"No judgment errors occurred?"
Lu Cheng said, "Leader, I wasn’t absolutely calm, but I was absolutely clear-headed."
"As for whether my judgment was wrong, I can only treat what I can, what I’m familiar with, and what the injured needed within my abilities."
"If you have other concerns, you can contact our department, alright?"
"If you believe there are flaws or errors in my rescue actions, you can report to the State Health and Wellness Committee."
Trying to make Lu Cheng shoulder the blame with the ’emergency avoidance’ excuse? Lu Cheng isn’t that foolish.
Although he could do so without any punishment, and Feng County could give a pretty good response.
But this was fabricated from nothing, why should Lu Cheng take the blame?
Zhao Hetong sighed and said, "Dr. Lu, actually, you know that in traffic accidents, different injuries and fatalities determine the type of accident."
"But?"
Lu Cheng said, "Leader, I’m just a doctor. When the car accident happened, I saw there were injured people, so I just wanted to try my best to help."
"Whether they can be saved, how the accident is defined, how to handle it, you all are the most professional; I can’t offer any opinions or help."
"If you have any doubts, you can contact my department."
The emergency response at the accident site was an emergency avoidance, not to mention that Lu Cheng was not wrong, even if he was wrong, he wouldn’t face any punishment.
Because if punishment or procedures became more cumbersome, it would mean all medical personnel could only choose to look away in the future.
"Leader, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up. This is my hard-earned vacation. Although I don’t intend to play any further." freёwebnoѵel.com
"I also want to go back and rest earlier!"
"If colleagues from Feng County have any doubts about the patients I’ve handled, feel free to contact me; my phone is available 24 hours." Lu Cheng replied.
If patients I’ve handled were mishandled, you can find flaws to question, that’s fine, it’s normal medical communication.
But for issues I haven’t handled, and if you want to put a label on me, Lu Cheng would definitely not accept it.
Lu Cheng unilaterally and actively hung up the phone, ending the recording at the same time.
Lu Cheng and Mu Nanshu returned to Tong Yuan’an’s family of three, politely said goodbye, and then Tong Yuan’an’s family entered the high-speed train station and returned.
Even though it sounded rather ironic, it was also a normal reaction.
Both Lu Cheng and Mu Nanshu had lost interest in touring the ancient city.
"Why don’t we return to Ji City too, take a two-day rest, and maybe explore some food?" Lu Cheng suggested.
Mu Nanshu nodded, "Who was calling you just now? You looked very serious."
After getting in the car, Lu Cheng started the car and drove out of the parking space: "It was someone from some department of Feng County Government, wanting me to take more blame, which I refused."
Mu Nanshu asked, "Will they end up falsifying the numbers?"
"The announcement might falsify the numbers, but they won’t dare to do so in reports," Lu Cheng said.
"After all, the leader isn’t foolish; with so many photos from the scene, they might not get uploaded online, but they can definitely be shared in groups."
