MEDBAY CATCH-ALL | JANUARY

CHARACTERS: EVERYBODY. Are you working in the Medical department? Are you sick? Do you need shrapnel dug out of your arm? Are you going in for a check-up? Are you visiting someone? Are you grabbing some space tampons? Are you just here to bitch about how terrible the Medbay coffee is? Get in here.
LOCATION: the Medbay & its adjoining areas (gravity couches; locker room; morgue; SHOWERS? idk man whatever turns you on)
WARNINGS: Sick or injured people who may or may not be tripping off their medication? Also, whatever gross weirdos happen to be in Medbay at the time.
SUMMARY: It's a catchall Medbay post! For characters to interact within the setting of Medical and do whatever the hell they want, set during the entire span of vague, nebulous space January. That is really all there is to this.
NOTES: This is really just a general catchall post for things people might not want to set up separate logs for, plus an excuse for open log mingling shenanigans. If you want to specify when in the month things take place, feel free to put it in your subject line! The same goes for whether or not the thread is locked to certain characters.

Upon leaving stasis, just beyond the gravitation chamber, you'll find the open space of Medbay. This department is equipped to perform entirely independent of human involvement, but as time has passed you'll find that medical is now attended by your fellow passengers, operating on a series of shift rotations. Not unlike the other specialties, medical is equally susceptible to loss and appears consistently in need of volunteer assistance. Admittance to the bay at large is dependent upon security clearance. For example, all passengers will be able to access bandages, low level pain medication and the like, assistants will be able to access equipment to assess a patient's vitals, and doctors will have access to controlled substances and patient medical files.

Within medical there are numerous beds and consoles to monitor the status of patients who have been admitted. Due to advances in medical technology, passengers can expect that injuries and illness will heal at an accelerated rate. Breaks and fractures, for example, will recover within a fraction of the time that would typically be expected. Rows of cabinets contain all the necessities you would expect to find in a hospital facility. Alongside the basics there are also decontamination chambers, quarantine rooms, and surgical facilities. The entire area gives a distinct impression of cleanliness and sterilization, though on closer examination, given the handful of items that have gone missing, it looks as though someone left in a hurry...

Yeah, he's, uh.

[Picky, insufferable and kind of weird? Yeah.]

Very smart.
glassesonachain: (little bit worried-- "I just made him be)

[She frowns.]

You don't sound very...certain. Of that. Statement. Which leads me to believe that you have a different opinion of him. You don't have to pretend for my sake.

[Oh god wait no time to backpedal as fast as he possibly can.]

No, no, no, he's--Doctor Brink is an incredibly valuable member of the department. He's done a lot for us. Very talented.

[Buuuut...]

I've heard he's hard on his assistants, that's all.

['Hard' in the 'I want my assistants to be gofers' sort of way.]

[She tilts her head and spends a very awkward amount of time analyzing him.]

I'm sure he's used to a certain standard and anything sub par is unacceptable to him. I don't foresee that being a problem. On my end.

If there is--

[Hm. Maybe that's not the right way to phrase it.]

I'm going to assign you to him for the time being. If there is a problem, just let me know, all right?
glassesonachain: (Big smile -- =D)

Alright, that sounds, that sounds fair.

[Look at her trying to look all professional but...utterly failing because EXCITEMENT. She gets to work with Topher EVERYDAY. Dream come true! Something like that.]

[Simon's still a bit apprehensive to put anyone to work under Topher, but even he can admit that it would be a waste of resources if he didn't--let the neurologists work together, and if he sees Topher relegating Bennett to gofer, he'll step in.

But he's not going to say any of that, of course, so he offers a smile instead.

It's, uh. I'm glad to have you on board, Bennett.
