The Brig Physician is a doctor that helps security staff with medical issues, be it healing an officer or <s>harvesting the organs of</s> tending to prisoners. Do to you unique position on the station you have many thing that you can do, be it making security more machine than man or seeing how many organs are actually required for a prisoner to live. As with everyone else, you are to follow [[Space_Law|The Law]] and your supervisors to the best of your abilities. You should also have a good understanding of medical (be able to revive people, know surgery, ect.) and have a basic understanding of space law, as all staff working closely with security should.

'''Remember you are not a security officer''', even though you have brig access and a mindshield. You should try to to help officers do their job, not do it for them. You are not allowed to make arrests or hunt for antagonists. On the opposite end, you should also be cooperative with members of security and do as they say. While you start with access to the security radio channel and brig access and they are both useful for doing your job, they are not a right and can be taken away if abused.

As the brig physician, your main priority is to keep personnel in the brig alive and healthy, be it a prisoner who broke into the caps office or an officer that got jumped by a traitor. When the round starts, you have more than enough tools to fix common ailments and wounds, but you probably encounter stuff that the brig infirmary cant treat. If you find an medical issue that you are unable to fix in the infirmary, you should consult the warden or Head of Security if you can take them to the medbay if they are a prisoner, or walk them there if they are security personnel.

When you start as a Brig Physician, you start with pleanty of tools to fix up scrapes and minor burns, as well as some other equipment:

|The uniform of the staring Brig Physician. While they help you stand out from other doctors, they provide no protection unlike other security uniforms. There is also bag containing different outfits that the you can wear in locker, in case you lose your current ones or want to play dress up with the rest of security.

|A heads-up display that scans the humans in view and provides accurate data about their health status. In addition it allows provides protection from flashes. Wear this at all times.

|The final resting place of those who could not escape securities wrath. This should mainly be used for dangerous criminals who may be revived if left in the normal morgue or soulless officers. In all other cases, it may be preferable to take them to the medbay morgue if soulless or revive them if they have a soul.

While this list is extensive, its still limited and cant fix everything. You should make sure to stock up on supplies from medbay for rarer medical issues.

Many times even the best doctors cant save people from dying outside their office. Officers will be jumped in maintenance and curious detectives will get ganged up on by revolutionaries. When this happens, you may need to step out of the brig and bring their dead body to medical. Before you even think of leaving, you should inform security of the death, as they may have to deal with someone with access to the brig and flash protection. Be sure to also relay the location of their death if you know it, as the murder may still be there looting the body. Once that is taken care of, you should quickly go over the information you have if their death, things like where they died, what damage they took, and what threats the station is currently facing, and decide if you need help recovering the body. If the person who murdered the officer is still there, they probably wont have any issue with killing you too, so it is better to be safe and ask an officer to come with you. If you know where the body is or they are wearing a body camera, go to the location and carefully try to locate it. If you don't know the location they died, you may need to sweep the station for them. Chances are the place of death is in maintenance or a back room, so the best place to start looking is there. If you get jumped while recovering or looking for the body, you should try to run and stay alive if posable as chances are the security officers wont go looking for you. If you do get the body, stick them with an emergency epi pen to preserve their body, get them on a roller bed or in a body bag, and get them in a public place like the hallways or generally accessible rooms. Access the the state of the body, like if they have dead or missing organs, missing limbs, husked, and if they are missing equipment, if they can't be revived in the infirmary take them to medbay.

Will describe the medical issues many common antags can cause to security and how to fix them. Curently it is a bit long and I will trim/compact it.

Changelings can be a pain if not handled well. If one is found, you should ask science to research better surgeries and ask the chemists for [[Rezadone]] to fix absorbed officers. If one is found to be using a cryogenic stinger, you should get coffee to help those stung. If one is in custody, remember that they can still sting people and use other abilities to escape. Also, remember that they can survive without their brain and can revive when dead, so borging and many other forms of execution are not permanent or wont work.

This is your worst nightmare. Even experienced Chef Medical Officers have issues with treating those who have been harmed by their powerful magics. If you have found an officer who has been affected with a wizards spell, chances are they have something that is either very hard to cure or impossible to cure. If you get overwhelmed, be sure to ask the CMO for help, that is if they haven't been turned into a butterfly.

Xenomorphs are much different than other antagonists, as fighting them isn't the dangerous part, its what happens if you aren't careful that will kill you. You should stay close to sec and encourage them to not go in one by one, as together they can pull each other away from danger or focus fire to quickly kill xenomorphs. Before you go out to hunt xenos, and also the first thing you should do when xenomorphs are called is to get facehugger protection. Facehuggers are one of the most potent weapons against the crew, as they take people out of combat for a good amount of time and require surgery to fix. A few common items that protect you are the following:

* Bio Suit Helmets (don't block vision, but are limited in number.)

* Riot Helmet (don't block vision, but are limited in number.)

==What to do when your not busy==

Many times you will find yourself without people to treat, this time is great to stock up on supplies, get upgrades, and check up with prisoners. One of the best things to do when you find yourself with extra time is to upgrade your office. By default, your sleeper only has a small amount of chemicals and you may find constantly needing to sedate people to preform surgery on them can eat into your supplies. You should ask an engineer to construct a stasis bed to replace your surgical bed, as it allows you to preform surgeries without needing to use anesthetics, and ask a scientist to upgrade your sleeper for better chemicals like charcoal and omizine. If you cant find anyone to set these up for you, you can also grab a toolbox and some parts and make your own. You may also want to pick up better tools from medbay if any are researched. Ones that may help are advanced surgical tools to help speed up your operations and cut down on the tools you need to carry, bluespace bodybags to quickly move bodies, and advanced health analizers for more information of what is ailing your patients.

'''NOTE: By default the Brig Physician cannot be an antagonist.'''
