Located on Deck Eight
is the ship’s sickbay. The Chief
Medical Officer’s Office sits in the center of the layout, allowing
him or her easy access to the entire area. The bottom right of
the diagram shows the primary examination and treatment area.
The orange beds in the top of the diagram mark the acute care ward.
To the left of the acute care ward is an area for physical therapy and
the entrance to the Intensive Care Unit. The middle left of the
photo shows the offices of the Head Nurse (far left) and the assistant

When a crewmember or patient becomes critically ill they will be
placed into the Intensive Care Unit.
The entrance is located off of sickbay near the acute care unit and
rehab room. A patient here receives
around the clock one on one care by one of the staff nurses or doctors. The unit contains more invasive medical
equipment and monitoring devices such as the Direct Ventricular Assist Device
or D-VAD. |
