Lu Ming sighed.
Fractures in the elderly were the most troublesome thing.
Because of age, the body's self-healing ability would decrease.
Young people would suffer from injuries for 100 days, while old people might suffer from injuries for 1,000 days.
Some would even lose their mobility for the rest of their lives.
"Go and register. I'll take the old lady to get an X-ray to check on her fracture.”
Lu Ming said to Qin Xue.
"Alright, alright."
Qin Xue nodded repeatedly and handed Song Juying over to Lu Ming without worry.
"Oh right, go and clean a wheelchair first.”
Song Juying had previously injured her waist, so it was not appropriate for her to exercise vigorously and walk for a long time.
Qin Xue immediately went to get a shared wheelchair.
After Qin Xue left, Song Juying, who was hugging her fractured arm and frowning, said to Lu Ming,
"Doctor, how much does it cost me to take a look?”
"The last time I treated my waist injury, I spent more than 3000 yuan.”
"My heart aches. That's 3000 yuan!”
Facing Song Juying's nagging, Lu Ming could only comfort her,"
"Don't worry about money first. Our health is the most important.”
"The most important thing is to treat the illness first.”
Song Juying was still stubborn." If I need to use medicine later, can you give me some cheaper medicine?"”
"There's more…"
Under Song Juying's nagging, Lu Ming did all kinds of X-ray examinations for her.
In the end, it was confirmed that it was a fracture of the forearm. Fortunately, it was not particularly serious. It was only broken into two pieces. There were no dangerous small broken bones.
After the reduction, a cast would be done.
However, there was a wound on Song Juying's palm.
Before she fell, she had used her hand to support herself on the ground. As a result, there was a pebble on the ground that cut a hole in her palm.
Lu Ming suggested a shot of Tetanus.
This was because an old man like Song Juying had a relatively poor physique. With such a large wound, there was a risk of infection.
Moreover, it was easy to cause a stroke.
"How much does this injection cost?"
Song Juying asked.
"Not much, just 30 yuan." Lu Ming said.
"How much?"
"30 yuan?"
"What a sin!"
"I'm not calling anymore. It's too expensive.”
Song Juying shook her head repeatedly and refused to get a shot.
"Grandma!"
"It's not like before anymore. 30 yuan is really not much. Even an eyebrow pencil costs 79 yuan!”
"It's for your own good.”
Qin Xue advised from the side.
"What?"
"You want 79 yuan for a pen?"
"What pen is so expensive?"
"How many vegetables do you have to sell to earn 79?”
"We worked hard to farm and grow vegetables. It took us several months to earn this little money.”
"Others charge 79 for a pen? What kind of effort did they put in?"
Song Juying couldn't figure out what kind of labor process was worthy of the price of this pen.
"Aiya, Grandma, that's not the point.”
"Just give me a shot of Tetanus."
In the end, under Qin Xue's strong persuasion, Song Juying still had a heartache and received a shot of spasmodic.
This time, he spent another 1312 yuan on medical expenses.
Including the 3088 yuan from last time.
The total cost was 4400 dollars.
This made Song Juying's heart ache. She secretly made up her mind to be more frugal in the future!
……
Five hours later.
An ambulance returned to Mingren Hospital.
The unconscious Song Juying was carried out of the car.
Lu Ming, who received the notice, came to the emergency door.
The moment he saw Song Juying, his mouth twitched slightly.
What was this old lady up to this time?
"What's going on now?"
Lu Ming looked at Song Juying's granddaughter, Qin Xue.
At this moment, Qin Xue was sweating profusely. Her lips were trembling slightly, and she felt like she was about to cry.
"Don't cry, don't cry. What grievances have you suffered?”
Lu Ming comforted her.
It didn't matter if he didn't comfort her. Once he comforted her, Qin Xue immediately cried.
The patients and their family members who passed by immediately looked over.
"Don't cry. Let's talk about it properly.”
Lu Ming was afraid that others would misunderstand and think that he had bullied Qin Xue. He quickly asked a nurse to comfort her and bring her into the consultation room.
"The old lady is fine. She just had a heatstroke.”
"Wipe your tears and tell me what happened.”
Lu Ming checked Song Juying's condition and found that she was fine. He then came to Qin Xue to ask what had happened.
Qin Xue took the tissue and wiped her tears. Then, she said,
"Just now, after we left the hospital, I wanted to take a taxi to bring Grandma home.”
"But Grandma thinks it's expensive to take a taxi, so she wants to take the bus.”
"I was thinking that I'd take the bus. It's not a problem.”
"However, when we reached the bus stop and got on the bus to swipe our cards.”
"My grandma realized that she didn't bring her old age card and couldn't take the bus for free.”
"An air-conditioned car costs three yuan now. When Grandma heard that it was so expensive, she pulled me out of the car and didn't want to sit in it.”
"And then…"
"She pulled me along and prepared to walk home!”
"We walked a full eight kilometers under the scorching sun!”
"My sunblock has evaporated!”
"I can't take it anymore! I really can't take it anymore! Hurry up and start school! I want to go to school!"
The more Qin Xue spoke, the more agitated she became. Her aggrieved tears flowed out again.
"So, your grandmother got a heatstroke halfway through?”
"Then you called 120 and dragged her to the hospital?”
Lu Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Why?
You said that in order to save a few dollars, you paid a greater price.
Was it worth it?
"About that."
"Let your parents communicate with your grandmother.”
"Otherwise, she's already a frequent visitor to the hospital. It's not a good idea!”
Qin Xue nodded slightly, indicating that she understood.
Immediately after.
Under the treatment of the medical staff, Song Juying, who had a heatstroke, woke up.
After resting for a while, he left the hospital.
This time, he spent another 500 yuan on medical expenses.
The total cost was 4900 yuan.
……
In the evening.
Lu Ming had just changed his clothes and was about to get off work.
As soon as he stepped out of the emergency room, two familiar figures got out of the ambulance.
This time, when Qin Xue saw Lu Ming, she was too embarrassed to raise her head.
Lu Ming looked at Song Juying, who was lying on the gurney.
This little old lady…
Here it comes again…
Was he doing this to boost the hospital's performance?
