Overview - Primary Sickbay
Located on Deck 7
For descriptive purposes the sickbay of the USS PROPHECY can basically be divided into halves. Facing the facility from the adjoining corridor, the left half contains the primary treatment area, and the right half is primarily an office and reception wing for the medical and counseling crew.
Sickbay's treatment area is closely based on a successful design pioneered in the Intrepid-class of the last century. A general examination area is lined with six standard treatment beds, three on each side of the room. These beds offer basic metabolic information on a small display over the patient's head. They can easily be reprogrammed to supply more detailed readings or a real time view of a limited number of diagnostic aides. Wall cabinets protrude slightly at waist height, providing both convenient storage for medical treatment paraphernalia and a place to put those items down. An over wide aisle between the two bed sets allows a clear space for direct transport of wounded to the Sickbay.
Continuing left you come to an exterior doorway to the corridor, then the round duty office. This area has transparent aluminum for the upper half of its walls to the facility giving on duty personnel a semi-private place to access the medical and ship's computers, check results of tests and discuss cases. The classic jar of 'lollipops' for good patients is kept in here. Shielded by this office from the ship's corridor entryway is the single major treatment bed and its associated wall sized information display area. If it can be scanned for or observed, it can be displayed here.
Further left from the duty office is a small medical lab. Various tests are run here, and all drugs are stored in this area. Small items can be transported to either the Medical stasis bay or the Biomedical cryostasis chamber from here. There is also a corridor access here.
Accessed from the medical lab is a cluster of four offices, permanent workspace for the individual physicians of the PROPHECY.
The right side of the Sickbay is essentially an open oblong space ringed by smaller rooms. The connecting door to the treatment area is flanked by the CMO's office and a staff lounge room, containing replicators, shower, lockers, seating and other amenities. Both of these rooms have an independent entry to the treatment facility as well as the waiting area.
The back wall from the ship's corridor starts with the staff lounge. Next to that is an unassigned office space reserved for temporary mission specialists. When not assigned, this office, with its plain desk, chairs, computer access and viewscreen, is often used for small meetings.
Next to this room are two office/treatment ares for the counselling staff. Their walls curve gently to follow the lines of the ship. The end of the interior open space holds the door of a third counsellor's area. These three offices have a second door to a private corridor leading to the main one.
The corridor wall of the right half of the Sickbay starts with the CMO's office, as stated earlier. In addition to doors to the treatment area and lobby, this office boasts a third door to the main corridor.
The primary public entryway to the Sickbay is between the only solid wall of the CMO's office and the open reception counter. A large computer terminal and storage area for PADDs takes up the much of this space and there is a small rectangular office, similar to the duty office in the treatment bay, behind the desk/counter area.
Continuing right and backing the reception office is the fourth and largest counselor's office. This room also has a ship's corridor access.
All the offices open to and surround a common lobby area, which contains artfully placed plants, seating, and recreational PADDs set to access books, games, or any other electronic distractions to make waiting for your appointment more pleasant.
All doors associated with the Sickbay facility can be sealed by the remote command of any member of the senior staff or on duty medical or counselling personnel to protect against contamination and unauthorized access. Automatic beam-out of any lifeforms to a secured area is triggered by this protocol. Authorization of the CMO, aCMO, chief Cns and/or the PROPHECY's CO or ExO is required to beam in to these closed areas or reopen any sealed portals.
