Chapter 1152: Chapter 455: Authority Crushing, the Beginning of Endless Fear

Even though it was after office hours, any disturbance in the Emergency Department quickly reached the hospital leadership.

There is never a shortage of people who want to ’show loyalty’ to the leaders.

Among the many doctors and nurses in the Emergency Department, there are certainly some who want to seize every opportunity to climb upwards.

The moment Zhou Can sent a message to the group, someone likely took a screenshot and sent it to the hospital leadership.

Of course, there’s the prerequisite that the informant needs to have the leaders’ WeChat numbers.

Under normal circumstances, neither ordinary doctors nor nurses have the opportunity to be WeChat friends with the leadership. But such a snitching opportunity can open that door.

They can show loyalty to the leaders and also take the chance to add them on WeChat, killing two birds with one stone, which is their motive.

Within less than twenty minutes, Xin Wanshan from the Medical Department arrived first to ’put out the fire’.

The Medical Department holds important responsibility for supervising the clinical departments.

Now that things have blown up, with over 90% of the Emergency Department’s staff gathering to protest the security’s inaction using strikes and banners, the lack of personal safety at work is now a group incident.

To put it more seriously, Dean Zhu’s position could even be in jeopardy.

The head of the Medical Department goes without saying.

Xin Wanshan tried to put out the fire, but unfortunately, he didn’t carry enough weight.

With Director Lou refusing to step in, he could only speak nicely to Zhou Can, Deputy Director Han, and others, pleading with them to persuade everyone to disperse, promising that he would report the issue to the higher-ups and that it would be properly resolved.

Despite Xin Wanshan’s endless persuasion, Zhou Can and others didn’t buy it.

As Xin Wanshan desperately tried to calm the ’gods and ancestors’, begging them to stop causing trouble, Vice Director Ye, who is in charge of medical affairs, arrived.

Vice Director Ye is one of the real powers in the hospital, but his abilities are limited.

When it comes to issues with the Security Department, he can’t intervene.

Zhou Can and others are very restrained at the moment, only sitting silently, gathering, and holding signs to express their demands. They haven’t taken any extreme actions.

Nevertheless, such a powerful protest still has a significant influence, enough to make many hospital leaders and even higher-level officials extremely tense and highly attentive.

As the standoff continued, more people arrived.

Dean Zhu, Vice Director Pang, and Vice Dean Ye from General Affairs all came.

"Colleagues, as the dean, I apologize for failing to protect everyone’s personal safety, which led to Emergency Department staff being injured by family members. If you have any demands, please discuss them rationally instead of neglecting patients and resorting to extreme actions like strikes and assemblies. This does nothing to solve the problem."

Dean Zhu was sweating profusely; he was genuinely anxious.

This incident happening at a critical moment in his promotion is immensely detrimental to him.

"Dean Zhu, leaders, our demands are simple. We just want the hospital and higher leadership to guarantee the safety of our clinical staff’s lives. We don’t want to be attacked and seriously injured by family members again. The security’s severe inaction and their indifference in witnessing staff being attacked and injured by family members have resulted in repeated tragedies. We reported safety concerns to the hospital administration over a month ago, but nothing happened."

Zhou Can couldn’t hold back. He raised the issue seriously in front of all the leaders.

The Security Department’s backing is no excuse to ignore the problem.

The idea that one cannot touch a tiger’s butt is non-existent here.

Aligning with the broader public against an entity is basically seeking disaster. Whether it’s a company or a hospital, they can’t escape the rule: winning the people wins the world.

"If the hospital can’t even ensure our basic safety, we refuse to return to work. We’ll protest until someone resolves this issue."

Deputy Director Han worried that Zhou Can, being the first to speak up, would be targeted by the leaders, so he quickly diverted attention.

"Our nurse, Ye Tingting, from the Emergency Department, is still in the ICU. Nurse Hee Juan was stabbed eight times, each wound potentially fatal, and still hasn’t escaped life-threatening danger. These women studied tirelessly for years, working hard in the hospital to save lives, not to be targets for patients and families to attack at will. The hospital has repeatedly ignored our safety. Today, we demand answers."

Nurse Niu Lan also stepped forward at this critical moment.

One must be brave in battle.

If everyone shrinks back, the fight cannot proceed.

It’s only by moving forward together with great courage that we can be formidable.

"What’s all this fuss about? Being stabbed by violent family members is a rare event. You studied medicine to save lives, which is correct, but you should also consider the complexity and danger of this work. Under Dean Zhu’s leadership, our hospital has done well in this regard. Previously, you caused a fuss with the administration about the Medical Department deducting funds over complaints. Bowing to pressure, they relaxed the rules significantly. And what happened? Within a few days, a family member stabbed someone. I believe you shouldn’t interfere with the hospital management’s decisions because you don’t have the perspective to see both sides."

Vice Director Pang put on a stern face, trying to use his authority to suppress the protest.
