"Well, this place isn't short on magical items either," Isla murmured with a smile. "Knowledge I have in abundance, it's true, but I will always use something that gives me the chance to save lives more quickly or comfortably." She shrugged, listening to his questions and stifling a grin at how quickly he was picking everything up, or how interested he was to learn.
"That depends," she murmured. "Usually I would need to defer to someone with magical expertise for a diagnosis, but since I got new eyes... well, I might be able to find that out myself. Sometimes it requires surgery, as there could be internal trauma or bleeding on the brain..." That was far too complex, though, for today's lesson.
His second question, though, she could answer. "Regardless of how minor it was, I would always keep someone in if they had nobody to go home with. It's important to monitor the patient at least overnight. If they are vomiting, though, or they are dizzy or in a lot of pain, I would likely want to keep an eye on them in that case, too. Does that make sense?"
Sitting back from their little table with the suturing equipment, Isla turned to take note of everything else she had brought with her. "So that's head injuries, stitches... do you know how to perform resuscitation should a person stop breathing?"
