About order
Unfortunately, in many medical institutions it is customary to judge patients according to narrow standards of thinking - all patients are equally stupid, do not know anything and do not understand from medicine, can be treated cynically, etc. Not to mention the deliberate disregard or humiliation of patients in some hospitals who refuse to pay "gratitude" or the hypocrisy when some people become more equal than others. And Perthh Hospital is only part of the overall distorted system. As for the specific 6th surgical department, the so-called one-man rule operates here. This means that the person entrusted with the department in question considers that the manager can afford unrestricted discretion, including in relation to his subordinates and the patients of the department, on the sole ground that such a manager is a meritorious member of his profession. An example is the departmental visits, during which the manager has to listen to the doctors' reports - it is a purely bureaucratic procedure in which the patient has no meaning as a person, because he is accepted as a non-living object or "object of treatment", and the patient as well. might not take part in the walks at all, because at the empty bed would be spoken exactly the same as in his presence. If one of the patients pays special attention during such a speech, it most often happens when the manager wants to offend the person in the presence of his subordinates - ask him questions and make fun of the patient's answers, demonstratively addressing him to "you" or simply saying something unworthy and directly offending the patient. Subordinates, in turn, must respect such behavior. It is understandable that such a high-ranking person would not pay much attention to criticism and would hardly change his behavior. However, neither the high position nor the sense of excellence gives the doctor the right to make fun of patients. And the real order in a department cannot be replaced by proving that such an order exists.
