SOP IN PROGRESS
While these SOPs may come with in character punishments on the Alfa server for non-command members, intentional disregard on the Beta server may be grounds for a role ban from the department. Repeated intentional disregard for SOPs by command members on either server may also result in a role ban.
General Procedures
Medical Bay
- For medical crew safety, the medical bay must not be placed on all access unless Red Alert is called.
- The medical bay must be kept neat and tidy for patient health.
- Chemicals should be kept in a stored locker or location, and closed when not in use.
Patient Care
- Patients must be triaged according to the severity of their injuries.
- Command members must take treatment priority.
- Doctors may not leave the medbay for personal reasons if there are untreated patients.
- Patients who repeatedly harm themselves, or threaten medical staff, are not required to be treated by medical staff.
Deceased Patient Care
- Patients should be prioritized by level of rot.
- Patients who are in advanced stages of rot should be placed into stasis beds or body bags.
- Patients who are not being treated should be stored in the morgue until sufficient resources can be diverted to revive them.
- Patients who become unrevivable or are deemed unrevivable require a morgue report filled out with:
- Patient name
- Patient job
- Approximate time of death/DNR approval
- Reason for DNR status
- Should a corpse become unclonable, it must be annotated on the appropriate DNR sheet, and then stamped by the CMO.
- Unclonable corpses, including those whose soul has moved on, may be placed into the
Violet Alert Protocol
- All medical personnel are to be secured in Medbay immediately.
- The CMO's safety will take priority over curing an infection.
- Chemistry will focus all efforts on researching the cure to the infection.
- Medical entrances should be locked down to prevent further infection of medical personnel.
- Any potentially infected personnel should be isolated and quarantined.
- Any pacified infected personnel should be brought to chemistry to aid in cure production.
- A cure should be distributed to the crew once available, in a controlled manner.
Staff Procedures
Chief Medical Officer
- Standard Command SOP applies.
- The CMO is responsible for training or assigning a trainer to any and all Medical Interns.
