Chapter 521: Special Family Members
The family didn't come, even if the middle-aged man from the neighbor was there to help, some things in the hospital were still not very convenient. Generally, when the elderly or children enter the emergency department, it is best to have two people around, one person can accompany the patient, and the other person can go through the relevant procedures in the hospital. A person is really lacking in skills, and he must be anxious to take care of the elderly and hurry up to go through the formalities and pay the money.
Patients brought back to the hospital by ambulance are, in most cases, undependent. If there is a passerby, policeman, etc., he can also help guard the patient, and then the king pigeon will go through the formalities. During the day, there are volunteers who can help, but at night it is up to the king pigeon himself.
Because of this, Wang Ge is so familiar with the payment of emergency services and the prosecution department, and knows every doctor he meets. Fortunately, the uncle's neighbor was present, so it was easier to run the process tonight. The old man's physical condition is okay, and the only injury on his body is his legs. If you don't move in bed, you won't feel pain.
But whether it was Wang Ge or the middle-aged man in the neighborhood to persuade him, the old man still refused to call his son again. The hospital has made many private phone calls with neighbors, but they have never been able to get through. When people came up to ask the old man about his son's work unit, the old man kept silent, always saying that it might affect his son's work.
When he sees the phone, he will naturally call back, and there is no big problem on his side, so there is no need to be in such a hurry. The king pigeon kept trying to persuade him while pushing his hospital bed, but to no avail. If the old man is still so stubborn after a while, then he can only trouble the police at the police station again, where his son works, and then call his unit to find someone.
Actually, this is really not a trivial matter. This is also a broken leg, and my consciousness is still clear, and I can call the police by myself, but what if I fall somewhere else. The tail vertebrae, pelvis, and even the skull are all fatal places. Even if you fall your leg, you will take a film at this time, and if it is indeed a fracture when the image comes out later, then at such an old age, what if you have surgery?
When will the steel nail be withdrawn? Not to mention the sick in bed, even after healing, the legs and feet will be unfavorable, and the nerves and muscles in the place where the operation has been done will be more or less cut off, intermittent numbness is certain, and whether it hurts on a rainy and cloudy day is still two different things.
The consequences of this old man's fall are really too serious! If there are elderly people in the family, it is better to pay more attention to it, it is okay during the day, it is best to have someone to accompany you at night, take care of it, and the hands and feet are not good at all, and in addition the vision is not clear at night, and you have just finished sleeping and got up at night, you have no strength in your body, you can't stand steadily, and your mental state is confused and confused, so it is even more dangerous.
An X-ray, first to see what the situation is, and then come to the leg CT scan, to determine the specific condition and treatment, the whole process of examination is not simple, but because the old man is relatively rich, when sent to the CT machine, it is simply exhausting. Things went well, Song Ping'an asked for the inspection results to be expedited, and Wang Ge got the film within half an hour.
Closed fracture, the situation is fine, Song Ping'an is cautious, or found an orthopedic doctor to discuss together. After reading it, the orthopedic doctor said that it was not a big deal, at least it was not a complicated case of femoral neck fracture. If the patient chooses surgery, the healing may be faster, but it must be based on the actual situation - after all, the old man is so old, can you stand this kind of surgery.
If it is conservative treatment, then it may bring a lot of trouble to the next three months or even half a year of life, the elderly osteoporosis, slow healing, it will take a long time, and it will take care of someone. These two options are actually similar, and the orthopedic surgeon can't say which one is better, but let the patient choose for himself.
In fact, this kind of thing may let the old man choose by himself, the so-called authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear, if there are family members at the scene, the family members must know their physical condition better than the old man and make more accurate judgments.
"Let's have surgery, it's getting better fast. My boss has passed away a long time ago, my son is busy with work, my daughter-in-law is out of town with her children, and I still have a little bit to go on, and when the time comes, I can hire a nanny, and it will be fine in more than two months. If I don't know how long the conservative treatment will last, I may not be able to get out of bed and walk until I die!" said the old man in the observation ward, the splint still on his leg.
Wang Ge, Song Ping'an, Bai Nan and the old man's neighbors are all here.
"This matter must be discussed with the family, any choice may cause danger, the family has the full right to know, and sign the notice. Sir, the method of surgical treatment is not something you can choose if you want to. We will first assess your physical condition, if your physical condition does not allow you to have surgery, you will not be able to do it if you want to. Song Ping'an explained, "Now we are only providing two options. ”
"But...... Old man, don't be too long-winded with me, whether it is surgical treatment or conservative treatment, there must be someone around to take care of it. You have a son, a daughter-in-law, and even grandchildren, what kind of nanny do you use? No matter how good the nanny's service is, it can't compare to a family!"
Is it the president of the United States? Even if the president of the United States sees his own father calling in the middle of the night, he has to get up immediately to answer it, right? Even if he can't accompany the elderly at home day and night, the phone should always be turned on 24 hours a day and then pay attention to it all the time, right?
As an ordinary person, if Wang Ge saw his parents calling him in the middle of the night, he would definitely think that something was wrong at home, and his heart ached, and he hurriedly went to pick it up. But this man actually left his father aside because of his work.
To be honest, Wang Ge also has a big opinion about the old man himself.
The old man is sixty or seventy years old this year, and it is estimated that his son is in his forties when he is older, and more than thirty when he is younger. is thirty or forty years old, and when he is not confused, he still has to rely on his father to cover up, when he asked the old man to call his son's unit just now, the old man has been shirking, defending his son, and refusing to call.
People's own housework, naturally it is not these people's turn to take care of it, but Wang Ge always feels that this matter is not so simple, there is another hidden reason.
But now that the diagnosis is over, the examination is over, and the doctor has a treatment plan to choose after the consultation, the family should always appear!
The old man was helpless, from the time the neighbor assisted the police to enter his home, and now he is in the hospital, almost more than an hour has passed, and in this hour, his son's phone calls have never been called, all of them are waiting tones, and no one answers. He picked up his cell phone on the bedside table and prepared to call his son's unit.
But at the same time as the old man picked up the phone, the phone vibrate. The old man's mobile phone showed very large words, and the caller ID had his son's name written on it.
It's kind of a call back.
The old man's words are very few, using the hometown dialect of a certain area of Nanhu Province, not the local dialect of Xiangsha City, and Wang Ge can only understand only a few words, guessing through the words. The old man informed his son of his situation, and told him not to worry, to be busy with himself first, but it sounded like he couldn't help his son in the end, and his son claimed that he would rush to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Yaxiang immediately.
Seeing this scene, everyone was relieved. For a patient with mild symptoms like the old man, it is completely too late to lie in the observation room and think about how to deal with the condition first, the old man will not have any life-threatening and complications in a short period of time, and it is no problem to wait for a few hours, as long as he lies still. And during this time, anyway, it is necessary to check the vital signs in detail, and by the way, even the surgical indicators are checked together, Song Ping'an can also make preparations with both hands, once the family decides to carry out the operation, it can start immediately, and there is no need to wait.
In the middle of the night, the old man's son was coming soon, so the old man persuaded his neighbor to leave the hospital. The middle-aged man of the neighborhood did not shirk, his wife has made a few calls to inquire about the situation, obviously urging him to go back, now he has done enough, Wang Ge also followed the persuasion of two sentences, the middle-aged man just took a taxi home, before leaving, the old man had to say, after the recovery to the house to thank you.
As a medical worker, the king pigeon still hasn't left here. The old man is fine for the time being, he doesn't need a doctor or nurse to guard, and even after entering the emergency room for diagnosis, he was directly transferred to the emergency observation ward after the examination, Song Ping'an asked Wang Ge to watch here, and when the old man's son came over, he could go to the doctor's office or emergency room to find him at any time, anyway, he could only appear in these two places tonight.
Wang Ge and the old man chatted without a word, and talked about the old man's son.
"Actually, don't blame him, it's not that I'm used to him, it's just that he's too busy with work. It's not worth wasting my time on this little thing. He had more important things to do. The old man said.
"What other important thing in the world is more important than my parents?" Wang Ge felt a little blushing as soon as he said this. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been in a dilemma, and sometimes, as a person, the focus must be shifted. Let's take myself as an example, my home is in the city, but I haven't been home for a long time. Mom and Dad are afraid of disturbing their work, and they don't even dare to make a phone call when they are fine, and Wang Ge is also heartless, and he hasn't taken the initiative to call home for a long time.
Yesterday, that incident was on the news, and no one in his family dared to call him, just for fear of delaying his career.
"Yes. The old man smiled, "Actually, we all understand. You have your own business. He's just like you. ”
While the two were talking, a tall and thin middle-aged man came in from outside the door, sweating profusely, with red eyes, and looking in a bad mental state.
"Dad, oops, why didn't you call my office earlier, or I would have come over a long time ago. How's it going, does it hurt?" The middle-aged man didn't bother to say hello to the king pigeon at all, and ran over to the old man when he came up.
Wang Ge turned around and wanted to go out to call Song Ping'an to come over, but he didn't expect Song Ping'an and Bai Nan to come by themselves. When this man came, he was in a hurry, which attracted the attention of many people, and the nurse station knew his destination, so he naturally notified Song Ping'an.
"Thank you so much!" The middle-aged man came to the door and shook hands with Song Ping'an, Wang Ge, and Bai Nan one by one, "If it weren't for you, what would my old father do!"
"Go back and thank your neighbor's uncle, he helped open the door. "Bai Nan is really a little unhappy, isn't this man an afterthought?" The old man is so old, and there is no one left at home at night. The phone can't be made alive or dead! If there are three long and two short, it will be bad! Fortunately, the old man is very blessed. ”
When the nurse sees this kind of irresponsible family member, she will inevitably have to be verbose, usually the family member also knows that it is their own fault, and nods their heads again and again.
"Alright, little sister, don't blame him. This is your companion. The old man sighed, this room is full of good Samaritans.
"Peer?" Bai Nan muttered, looking at the old man's son strangely.
"You see I'm in a hurry! I didn't introduce myself, I'm embarrassed. I am an emergency doctor at Xiangsha Central Hospital, today is on the night shift, I met a drunk driver on the outing, I haven't tied a seat belt, my stomach was broken by the car door to a big opening, my intestines flowed all over the ground, the operation lasted more than four hours, the mobile phone was put in the lounge and did not take it out, when it rang, I guess I was holding someone else's intestines and stuffing it into my stomach! I don't know what happened at home. The more the middle-aged man talked, the more uncomfortable he became, his eyes were red, and he was afraid for a while, if his father really fell down all of a sudden, fell to his head, and was gone, he came so late, wouldn't he even see the last side?
The three people present were silent, and while they condemned others, they also existed in themselves, or were about to have the same problem. They are all in their twenties, and the old people in the family are not young, in case there is only one old man left in the family in the future, who is old, and accidentally falls and injures himself at night, and they happen to be on night shift, will they really receive a call from home, neighbors or even the hospital at the first time?
