Volume 8 Flap your wings! 130 Hospital's proposal
Arisio also asked the same question: "What is a hospital." Xu Zheng replied: "The main purpose of a hospital is to provide medical care services to people. The two of them were at a loss on their faces, and Xu Zheng explained: "In fact, the hospital is a place to treat people, it not only treats wounds, but also treats diseases, and can also provide other medical services, such as health care or something." ”
"Wait. Puzzled, Jirimi asked, "Don't we have a hospital and a church, where doctors and priests can provide medical care." ”
"Yes. Indeed there is. But they offer too few services. Moreover, their targets are almost all aimed at high-ranking nobles and adventurous mercenaries, and there are really few opportunities for ordinary civilians to seek medical treatment, not only that, but they are also expensive, and some diseases cannot be cured at all. For example, my Uncle Carlo's bone injuries and blocked meridians were simply not able to deal with them. Arisio nodded thoughtfully, and Jirimi showed a slightly disapproving expression, if it weren't for all the plans that his father asked him to assist Xu Zheng propose, he would already be unable to speak.
"Why did you come up with this?" asked Arisio. Xu Zheng said: "Actually, I used to think about it before..The first time I thought about it was because of Uncle Carlo's arm, at that time, his injuries could not be cured by either doctors or priests, so I thought that there should be a hospital, where doctors and pastors should be gathered, and everyone can communicate and cooperate with each other, and it will definitely solve more problems that could not be cured before." And I'll have some...... Well, medical treatment from another place will definitely be useful after everyone learns it. I think of this again today because of Prade's grandfather and the people I saw in front of me. ”
"What's the matter with Guan Pride's grandfather?" Xu Zheng said with some sadness: "Although I said that people are inevitable to die when I comforted Pride, but it is not everyone's wish to let relatives and friends live a healthy and long life?" Arisio and Giremy both nodded, the father of the two people, the eldest Ali is in his forties, but he is weak and sickly, although Miller is strong in martial arts, but because of old age, Jirimi is only in his early twenties, and Miller is already in his sixties.
If Miller can't cross the threshold of combat skills and go to the next level, he won't necessarily have much more days left than ordinary old people.
And how difficult it is to cross this threshold, instead of pursuing it, it is better to let my father live a healthy and happy life.
Seeing that both of them had thoughtful expressions on their faces, Xu Zheng said again: "Yes, Pride Rhett's grandfather died of a cold, but if we hadn't recruited Pride to work, maybe Pride would take better care of Grandpa, and the old man would have lived a few more years." Now that he's gone, or we're not at fault, but I always feel uneasy when I think about it. If I had found a way to build a hospital to serve the public, would I have been able to let Pride go to work while letting his grandfather treat in the hospital, and I would have the best of both worlds? Now I see Pride sad for the loss of his loved ones, I just can't help but think like this, I always feel that it is my own fault, and I always feel that I have not done my best, and I have let others lose their most precious relatives. Arisio said with some sadness: "If you think so, I am also wrong." Jirimi stared at the two in amazement, with a shocked and moved expression on his face.
With his father's thin and selfish character, why would he praise Xu Zheng again and again, and even more so to follow him regardless of all returns, he now vaguely understands.
"Come, I'll show you. Xu Zheng pointed to a middle-aged man and said, "Look, he's bent over his back, that's from years of physical activity." Without treatment, he will be in bed within a few years and will not be able to get up. He is in the prime of life, and he should be the main laborer in the family, and if he lies down, what will happen to the children in the family, what will happen to the wife, what will happen to the old fathers and mothers? Therefore, saving one of them is saving his family. ”
"Look at this again. Xu Zheng pointed to a woman who was coughing and panting from time to time, she was smiling, one hand on her chest, trying to soothe the uncomfortable feeling of chest tightness.
"This symptom is called asthma, and it's most likely to flare up during this cold season. Mild attacks can only make people feel uncomfortable, chest tightness, and cough, but once they have an acute attack, it is very easy to close the throat and die. Even if it cannot be cured, it is necessary to control it and reduce the number and severity of attacks. ”
"Look at this. The eyes of the two followed Xu Zheng's fingers again, and they heard Xu Zheng say in their ears: "You can see that the color of his lips is blue, the ends of his fingers are obviously thick, and his head is full of sweat when he moves it slightly." If I'm not mistaken, this should be a physical feature of congenital cyanotic heart disease. The two looked carefully, and sure enough, they saw that the person was just like Xu Zheng said, with a slight sweat on his forehead, and occasionally subconsciously reached out to rub his chest.
The two of them immediately admired it greatly, and Giremy thought to himself that this person was really as special as his father said, and Arisio couldn't help but ask: "How do you know so much?" Xu Zheng scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, thinking that if you lie down for more than a hundred years like me, you can only pass the time with all kinds of knowledge every day in addition to calculation, and you will know a lot.
Especially in such an era of knowledge explosion...... Xu Zheng looked at her fingers and saw that her ten fingers were swollen and her joints were particularly thick, so she asked, "Old man, do your fingers hurt?" The old man stretched his fingers a few times, and Xu Zheng saw that she not only couldn't straighten out, but it was difficult to even grasp when she bent her grip, so he had already determined that it was a certain type of arthritis.
"It hurts. The old man said: "It is more obvious in winter, it is nothing if you can't grasp things tightly, but sometimes it is difficult to even move." "It is seasonal, it is more common in women, it is more common in the fingers, knees, and lumbar vertebrae, and it appears in slums with heavy physical labor, and the symptoms are very similar to the accumulation of excessive osteoarthritis, Xu Zheng is almost sure.
After thinking about it, he asked again: "My fingers hurt, why don't you treat it?" The old man shook his head: "I went to the hospital once, and I was given some painkillers." I didn't dare to go to the church, the cost was too expensive for us to afford. And I haven't heard of anyone who can cure this problem. There are many people who have this problem, everyone is the same, and it will be a year to delay it. With that, he picked up a loaf of bread with difficulty and walked away.
Xu Zheng snorted at her back: "See, the existing medical system, no, no, no, this is not called a medical system, at most it can only be regarded as a simple medical point." They have too many problems, minor diseases cannot be cured, major diseases cannot be cured, and it is surprisingly effective in dealing with traumatic wounds. But if the bones are broken or something, it will also just stare dryly. A powerful healing technique was thrown over, and his life was saved, and he looked normal on the outside, but it was a mess inside, like a pot of porridge. It's not that I despise it, to be honest, the medical methods of the Aris continent can't even compare to the ancient interstellar alliance, let alone the new interstellar alliance after the great fusion of races. In the 19th century, it was not uncommon for amputated limbs to be replanted, but in the 23rd century, the internal breath and meridian theory of traditional Chinese medicine and the clinical theory and anatomy of Western medicine were combined. With a look of contempt, he pursed his lips again: "As a result, when I arrived here, I found that the doctors and priests here couldn't even handle Uncle Carlo's arm well, and insisted that it was crippled. I'm plugging! They're the brain-dead!
“
"What is the Interstellar Alliance, and what is the anatomy of the meridians? I think I've heard it, Lan ...... Well, I mean I like to hang a sword on a belt, and the handsome one who is so handsome and jealous seems to be practicing this, and you also taught it. Arisio sensitively grasped the new words.
Xu Zheng often has many strange new words popping up in his mouth, each of which is very interesting, and Arisio always pays special attention to these.
Xu Zheng knew that he had missed his mouth, and immediately changed the subject treacherously: "Huh? Did I say it? Oh, this...... Explain that later. Let me tell you about the benefits of setting up a hospital. Jirimi had been listening to Xu Zheng with relish before, and now his mentality was no longer because of his father's orders, but he realized that what came out of Xu Zheng's mouth was not very simple, so he really corrected his mentality and listened attentively with Arisio.
Xu Zheng said: "The hospital is a medical institution with the main purpose of diagnosing and treating patients and taking care of patients, and the advantages of establishing a hospital are to provide a unified gathering point for medical services, with centralized medical personnel and convenient communication, and centralized patients, convenient for management, care, and treatment. The second is to expand the business, in addition to low costs, so that more people can see a doctor and become feasible. Third, it can also be used as a disease treatment supervision agency to prevent and treat infectious diseases. Then he said a lot, and the two of them were in a fog, and they were speechless for the beautiful blueprint planned by Xu Zheng.
Jirimi said: "It sounds like there are only benefits and no harms, why does your tone sound like it is difficult to implement?" Xu Zheng said: "The establishment of a hospital is indeed only good and there is no harm. However, it is not easy to implement, first of all, it is a problem to break people's common sense and let them come to the hospital for treatment. If reasonable fees are a problem, how to recruit doctors and priests is a problem, how to prepare wards, beds, treatment equipment is a problem, and even how to recruit service personnel is a problem. Oh my gosh! There are so many questions...... Little Ali, the money we earn is probably 100% spent, and it is not enough. Because of the current situation, if we want everyone to get better medical care, the hospital we want to build can only be public welfare and non-profit, which means that every copper coin has to be paid by ourselves!" Arisio also scratched his scalp like Xu Zheng: "I just want to ask, does it make sense?"
"Yes! I bet that as long as the name of the hospital is the same as that of the Penocchi, within three years, all the historians and scholars will cry and beg for the Penocchi family to be written into the annals of history!" Arisio was in high spirits, and said with a smile: "Then what are you waiting for? Don't you have to do something meaningful to live for? You take the lead, I support you!" Jirimi also listened to it and seemed to understand, but his heart had keenly grasped that this was an important opportunity that could not be missed, and immediately said: " On my father's behalf, I promised that if the construction of the hospital was a matter of great importance, the Miller family would be at the disposal of any force. ”
"Okay!" Thinking of the benefits brought by this new thing, Xu Zheng also danced with his eyebrows, and said excitedly: "Let's build a hospital!"
