How to unlock the Hippocratic Oath achievement in Call of Cthulhu - Definitive Guide
You start this level playing as Doctor Marie Colden and you don't have to worry about your medical skill level.
I'm unsure exactly what counts as healing a patient, I simply walked around the ward, reading every chart, interacting with all patients and nurses where possible. Check behind all curtains as some patients are slightly hidden. I got the achievement after speaking to the two men sitting in the hallway waiting for news of their mother.

If you're stuck on this read the comments for some clarification regarding this achievement.
1.) The patient going into shock near where you start the level, in the middle curtained area (aka not against the windowed wall). When you click on the patient, you'll notice the patient is going into shock and you'll call a nurse over to start a new IV.
2.) Halfway through the second section of patients, along the windowed wall, is a woman who was going to need a nephrectomy (kidney removal), though her charts shows Dr. Fuller saved the kidney. After check on her, her two sons are located on a bench out in the hallway, simply talk to them and let them know their mother will be alright to finish this requirement.
3.) At the back of the second patient area, along the windowed wall, is the last patient. When checking on this patient a nurse will ask you about the patient. You'll have to do several medicine checks on the patient, noting that the patient is frothing at the mouth and has injuries on his wrists. The nurse will ask what to do -- give any answer and this will solve the third requirement.
I don't think you need to look at every chart, though I don't know this for sure.
I went back and interacted with the nurse/patient and the achievement popped (in case you missed the interaction like me before talking to the two men in the hallway).
During Chapter 8 when you are playing as someone else, find and interact with every single patient you can in A Block and B Block. Once you have done this, speak to the two brothers sitting on a bench and tell them about their mother to unlock the achievement. See the video below for additional help.
Missable.
In Chapter 8, you’ll be playing as a doctor in a hospital. You’ll need to interact and help every patient.
There are a few patients you need to help and some others you just need to inspect them and the charts at the bottom of their bed. After inspecting them all, go talk to the 2 brothers sitting in the corridor, and they’ll ask about their mother.
If you’ve done that right, you’ll be able to select the dialogue “I saw her. She is fine.” If it’s anything else, you’ve missed someone so leave and inspect some other patients.
