“What else? Who ran away? Room 713 Noh’s grandmother? Or a high school student in the intensive care unit?”
At least when the resident welcomes me, nothing truly pleasant will ever happen.
“Oh, no! “I didn’t run away!”
“Whew. By the way, weren’t you supposed to go into surgery in room 5? “Time is up. Why are you here and not ready?”
“Hey, that’s… … .”
It is also true that we cannot feel at ease just because we have passed a difficult time.
“why. “What is it again?”
“I didn’t get confirmation from the anesthesiologist. The surgery was set up, but Professor Oh, the anesthesiologist, said it wouldn’t work because he didn’t properly check for underlying diseases. “Please do CAG (coronary angiography) again. The patient was hospitalized yesterday and is ready and waiting. What should I do?”
“Why are you saying that now? “Didn’t you receive pre-medicine (preanesthesia evaluation note) last night?”
“Until yesterday, the medical director there said that at this rate, the operation risk (operation risk) would be judged by TTE (transthoracic echocardiography) , but today, suddenly Professor Oh of the anesthesiology department said absolutely not.”
“iced coffee.”
These anesthesiologists.
Hae-joon roughly grasped the situation and sighed as if he were in pain through his mask. FreeMedi, the process of understanding the patient’s condition ahead of surgery is the biggest practical hurdle in surgery. It’s not that I’m not annoyed by the anesthesiologist who changed his words before the surgery, but I can’t ignore their position that puts patient safety first.
Above all, if you have a falling out with the anesthesiology department, you can say that your smooth hospital life has been thrown away, and it is the sadness of the surgery department.
“Who was the builder?”
“… … “Professor Choi.”
Hae-joon became depressed when he heard Gyeong-min’s voice crawling across the mountain. Only then did I understand why Kyungmin was thinking about dying.
“Professor Choi got angry and said he would just leave work. If you’re going to ask me when I’ll have another test and surgery, I’ll put it off until after the surgery. Then, Professor Oh from the anesthesiology department got angry and yelled at me to do that.”
“Ah, this guy is real!”
I can’t believe I’m yelling at the anesthesiologist who couldn’t even give me a pampering blow. Hae-joon quietly swallowed his anger and checked the clock in the operating room hallway again. Although who would want to go into an operating room with only a few hours left before work, there are people who don’t want to go into the operating room more than anyone else.
“Then you’re asking the patient to do this again? “The person who came here after praying and deciding to have surgery at the risk of death?”
“But Professor Choi said he would follow the rules. “You asked me why I postponed the surgery until next week because I had to go golfing on the weekend, so why did you have to schedule it for Friday?”
“okay. Then you have to follow the rules.”
“yes?”
“You just have to get it right before work time, prosecutor.”
Perhaps it was resignation or determination, but Hae-jun gritted his teeth and his steps became faster.
“Kyungmin, go take a contrast dye allergy test and get a consent form. “Hold the 18 gauge line.”
“yes!”
Kyungmin, who was following her, let out a silent exclamation and clenched his fists. He thought that Professor Yoon would be like this, but he was only human, so he couldn’t help but feel sorry.
“But what should I do? “The professor has just come out of the operating room and has to go home.”
“it’s okay. “Am I the only one who can’t get off work?”
Even sunflowers can’t go golf.
Hae-joon pouted, saying that was at least a good thing, but if I had to look at it, it was a bigger loss for me. Because the first promise with your lover, where ten million won is at stake, seems to be dangerous.
“You go quickly and get ready. “I need to go somewhere.”
“Where are you going? “If you’re meeting Professor Oh for Freemedi, I’ll go!”
“No, I have to go for this.”
Even if you are a resident with a lot of enthusiasm, you have to watch the other person and attack them. Hae-joon, who was walking quickly for fear that Gyeong-min would catch up, suddenly took a shortcut that only he knew.
It won’t be easy to deal with a man who is more difficult than all of your favorite anesthesiologists combined.
◇ ◆ ◇
“Are you out now, Chairman?”
After checking the time, Lee Han left the chairman’s office, and the planning director bowed his head as if he had been waiting. Lee Han’s eyes hardened as he looked around the empty secretary’s office.
“Why are you here, Manager Han? “Everyone must have told you to leave work first today.”
“But still, how can I go first when the chairman is here?”
“… … .”
As expected of a person anxious to see Lee Han, he smiled slyly without any embarrassment. This is the car I was secretly paying attention to after hearing that Secretary Kang, who had been driving Lee Han a few days ago, had gone to the hospital.
“I will take care of you today, Chairman.”
“Where do you mean?”
“ah… … “I heard you’re going for your wife’s birthday.”
“Did the rumor spread this far?”
“The chairman too. “If it is the birthday of the chairman and wife, who are the actual owners of Cheil Hospital, then of course I should know.”
Hehe, the planning manager even burst out in a good-natured laugh and naturally followed behind Lee Han. Now that I think about it, it’s clear that he’s dressed in a well-dressed suit, even with polished shoes, and that he’s well-prepared.
“Last year, I sent a separate gift and card from the hospital, but since the chairman has taken office, I thought it would be right for me to go and greet him in person.”
“There’s no need to overdo it.”
“No. After all, I’m not the head of the planning department. If it’s a big or small event at Cheil Hospital, can it be left out? “If you think about it, isn’t it my duty to take care of events like this?”
“… … is that so?”
On the other hand, Lee Han, who did not listen and walked out into the quiet hallway, was upset. While he was giving an appropriate response to a manager who was following him around to the point of being annoying, he suddenly fixed his eyes on something.
“Why are you doing this, Chairman? “Are you looking for something?”
“… … .”
As Lee Han stood tall, the head of the planning office stepped forward like a loyal servant. It’s past work time, and since it’s the top floor where the director’s office is, there’s no one coming and going. The only thing worth looking at is the small garden leading to the rooftop. Her mother, Mrs. Cha, has a hobby of flowers, so I wonder if the chairman is also interested in that. The manager, who could not miss this opportunity, naturally turned his steps in that direction.
“Ah, I put a lot of effort into the garden too. Isn’t Cheil Hospital’s motto the healing of the mind provided by nature? “The same goes for the indoor garden in the lobby. You may not have looked around it separately yet, but this time I’ll give it a proper look.”
“no!”
“… … .”
“That’s it.”
Even the look in his eyes was different from before, when he was polite yet indifferent. Stop, just stop here. The head of the planning department, who had already turned away from him, waved aimlessly at the warning that was not a warning, as if telling him not to step any further.
“Ah, since I don’t know anything about Cheil Hospital, whether it’s people or places, I just wanted to explain what the chairman was curious about. haha.”
“Good for you. “Then, I would like to know about the three-year financial statements, faculty history and number of staff compared to other top three hospitals, and VIP ward operation status and personnel.”
“… … yes?”
Of course, it’s happening right now, in front of the garden in the hallway.
It was pitiful to see the head of the planning office with his lips muted, unable to bear the question. I turned around to try to figure out Lee Han’s intentions, even if it was too late, but only his extremely polite black eyes were focused on me.
“why. “Why not?”
“Oh, no! It’s not that it can’t be done, but… … .”
“Wait. until tomorrow.”
“… … yes. Then, after seeing the chairman off, by tomorrow afternoon,”
“Until morning.”
“… … .”
One more word from there, until dawn.
Lee Han’s eyes became darker and clearer, containing a warning that seemed obvious even without hearing it. Lee Han just endured until the head of the planning office, who swallowed dry saliva, completely disappeared with an ambiguous face that could neither cry nor smile. To be precise, after confirming that there was no one around and standing in front of the glass door leading to the garden, his solid eyes became distracted as if frowning.
“… … “What on earth are you doing there, Professor Yoon?”
“Ah, Chairman. “Have you seen it?”
This is it.
Hae-joon, who was hiding in the innermost corner of the small garden, faced him with a clumsy smile. I also have a good sense of vision, just in case someone is a beast. He quickly got out, shaking off his clothes, but that wasn’t enough to shake off Lee Han’s intense gaze that seemed to be urging him to explain.
“I know there are many more ways to get from CS to my office than here.”
“yes. I know that, but it’s because Manager Han is still waiting. “Because he would be suspicious if he knew that I often go to see the chairman.”
“… … .”
Lee Han also agreed to that. As the head of the planning department, she was the one who was constantly paying attention to the new chairman and everything around him, rather than to Jeil Hospital, so it was clear that if she, who already disapproved of her, came into the chairman’s office, her senses would be on edge.
“But there’s no need to wait here. Rather call me… … .”
You don’t know.
Only then did Lee Han remember that they didn’t even know each other’s phone numbers and rubbed his forehead tiredly. We won’t be like this starting today. The strange relationship I realize once again is so unfamiliar that I almost laugh out loud.
Then, wondering if he was really going to laugh, Lee Han briefly brushed his hair and regained his indifference.
“I understand that Secretary Kang has agreed to bring a driver and meet at the back gate at 6 o’clock.”
“I was going to do that too… … .”
As Hae-joon’s voice suddenly decreased, Lee Han’s eyes also narrowed. She was making the most plausible excuses she could, but for him, who valued her results, her conclusion was one thing.
“… … So you’re saying you can’t come today?”
Is there anyone who wants to deduct 10 million won each?
Hae-joon’s eyes grew even wider over the mask he could not even take off due to the soft warning conveyed in his eyes. In the afternoon sunlight, clear brown eyes were as innocent as a deer.
“no! song! “It’s an appointment, so of course I have to go!”
“… … however?”
“I mean, time is tight. However, you only need to complete one test, and if you start right away, it can be completed within an hour.”
“Do you really have to do it, Professor Yoon?”
