I just received a call from my very hard working medical officer, who is doing his ENT masters training, who has just completed his surgical rotations with me.
“Mr. George, are you free to talk?”
“Yes”
“I just witnessed a very bad accident, head on collision, one died on the spot. The was another four. One had difficulty breathing and was bleeding profusely, another has serious limb injuries. The other two was ok.”
“You were there at the scene”
“Yes, the ambulance that arrived did not have a doctor. So, I introduced myself. I had to do CPR in the ambulance. We reached the Hospital but the ED doctor was not around, so I intubated the patient and continued CPR. She lost a lot of blood. The ED doctor came and took over. I am very happy I was able to save two lives today. I managed to use my surgical training and the CPR course I recently attended fully. Thank you!.”
“Good! Excellent! Not many will have this opportunity and many will refrain from getting involved. Good!”
“Will there be any problems?”
“No, don’t worry!”
“I will call Serdang tomorrow to see how the patient is getting along!”
“I am happy for you! Good job! Good!”
“Thanks, Mr George. Bye”
Bravo, Soma. I am so proud of you!
