Chief Medical Officer: Difference between revisions
More or less overhauled the article. Started by changing the trekchem references to goofchem ones, but then I ended up editing like half the article to be more in line with what I've experienced as CMO

People forget about you really easily, so if you don't want to get kicked off the bridge as a break-in, make a quick announcement for everyone to turn on their [[suit sensors]] (this will save your EMTs some trouble) and check in with your staff over your medical radio channel. Having full access to genetics and chemistry doesn't hurt either, so try to take it on yourself to produce some [[Styptic Powder]], [[Silver Sulfadiazine]] and [[Synthflesh]] for later use, and maybe load some [[Chloral Hydrate]] into a syringe gun <s>or your Hypospray</s> for those rainy days. Don't be afraid to take over for cloning and medical chemistry if you're understaffed. | ||
At some point, you might have your [[Virologist]] ask you for a Virus Crate, since you're <s>his boss who he wants to keep informed</s> the only one who can unlock it. If you're feeling wary about their abilities, ask them to come up with a vaccine for a simple disease first, like the flu. After a little while, he might creating a beneficial virus that he wants to release. Make sure you tell him to run this by you first, and double-check his work before giving him the green light. If he releases one without telling you, immediately take a blood sample from an infected person and scan it in the pandemic machine in [[Virology]]. If it only has good symptoms, commend them on their work, then yell at them to run it by you first in the future. If the disease has bad symptoms (possibly including superpowers, ask over the command radio if the [[Captain]] wants hulk'd Assistants running around freely), tell the other heads immediately and start passing out the cure to people en masse. If you have a chance to subdue the rogue Viro safely, do so and drag them over to the brig, but otherwise just focus on curing people and let security handle things. | |||
Depending on how busy the medbay is, you may have some spare time to dick around with now and then. You can spend this time pretty much however you want, whether you want to brew up some <s>[[Krokodil]]</s> extra healing chems for later, scan people in genetics in case they die and their body can't be recovered, clean up the inevitable pools of blood with the Space Cleaner bottles laying around, <s>ERP with your doctors while people need help,</s> scan the [[Chef|Chef's]] food with your PDA's reagent scanner to make sure he isn't poisoning people, or just run a gimmick of your choice. | |||
=== Crew Monitoring === | ===Crew Monitoring=== | ||
In your office | Thanks to recent technological advancements, the CMO/other heads of staff/[[AI]] are no longer the only ones who can access the crew monitoring system. In addition to the stationary consoles at the bridge and your office, each med-vendor comes stocked with several portable crew monitors that can be used by anyone once grabbed from the vendor by someone with a medical ID. If people <s>actually remember to set their suit sensors on</s> have their sensors randomly set on when spawning, you can check if they're alive or dead (if Binary Vital Signs are on), what their health levels are (with Vital Trackers on), and even where they are (with Tracking Beacons on). Periodically check these monitors for people to heal or clone and send one of your [[Medical Doctor|doctors]] to them. You may even catch a murder in progress with this! Medbay has plenty of these laying around, so if a crew member like the [[Detective]] ask for one, feel free to oblige them. Remember that there's a vendor in [[Virology]] that only you and the Virologist will ever really use, so feel free to raid it for monitoring consoles and other supplies. | ||
If someone shows up as deceased but you don't know where they are, you can ask the AI to locate them for you. | If someone shows up as deceased but you don't know where they are, you can ask the AI to locate them for you. | ||

It starts with 30 units of [[Omnizine]], which heals all four main damage types (brute, burn, oxygen and toxic, though it doesn't purge other chemicals like [[Charcoal]] does, which means they may still need attention). '''DO NOT INJECT ALL 30 UNITS OF OMNIZINE INTO SOMEONE AT ONCE, YOU WILL OVERDOSE THEM AND CAN END UP KILLING THEM!''' Since brute and burn damage can both effectively be healed with chemicals like [[Styptic Powder]], [[Silver Sulfadiazine]] and [[Synthflesh]], and toxin damage is better dealt with by Charcoal or [[Calomel]], the Hypospray is best suited for emergencies where you're too busy to dig around for patches and pills. As for <s>drugging the Clown to drain their blood</s> self-defense, filling it with [[Chloral Hydrate]] might be a good idea to deal with unruly patients, just make absolutely sure that you don't forget you changed the load and inject someone in crit with 20u of chloral and kill them. You can empty the Hypospray by simply injecting its contents into something or using a syringe to extract it. | ||
===Compact Defibrillator=== | |||
The Compact Defibrillator functions identically to the big bulky defibrillators that spawn in medbay storage with one key difference: Whereas the normal defibs are as big as backpacks and have to be put on your back to function, this is small enough to fit into a backpack and clips to your belt instead. This smaller size allows the Compact Defib to be much more versatile and useful than it's larger brother since you can deploy it on the spot anywhere, rather than dragging the body all the way to medbay for defibbing, or lugging a bulky defibrillator to the patient. Also like the normal defibs, this comes equipped with a 10kw power cell, which is enough for 10 charges. Make sure to recharge it from time to time, or bug R&D for a 30kw hyper-capacity cell so you'll (almost) never have to worry about charging it again. Whatever you do, don't lose it or leave it in your locker, since it is incredibly useful and doesn't take up much space. | |||

Runtime is your pet cat who starts her day in your office, and most likely never leaves your office. She lounges around, sipping on expensive space milk, meowing and mewing all day long. It's the best life a space cat can have, and she is all yours to snuggle with and pet. Some say she is not important, as Ian is the most important pet they say (how dare they), but this is simply not true. While Ian may have more abilities like wearing things, Runtime is a space cat, who don't need no human. She is there because she allows it. | Runtime is your pet cat who starts her day in your office, and most likely never leaves your office (unless R&D is fucking around with the [[E.X.P.E.R.I-MENTOR]]).

If people are acting strange or starting to get rowdy, arm yourself with ''anything'' as soon as possible, and be prepared to flee from medbay at ''any time''. Your telescopic baton is your obvious first choice for self-defense since you can keep someone stunlocked by repeatedly smacking them, though you can still easily be overpowered by groups, and if someone knocks it out of your hand then the tables are completely turned. Your Hypospray is a also good choice: remember, twenty units of chloral will knock someone unconscious for a long time. Other possible weapons are a fire <strike>extinguisher</strike> axe from the bridge if you're utilitarian, a spray bottle with space lube to buy yourself some time, or a syringe gun if you only need some range. | ||

One of your major goals is to capture Genetics so you and your changeling buddies can feast on free corpses! With the right chemicals, your Hypospray or a spray bottle can both be used to knock out victims ([[Chloral Hydrate]], anyone?), and you can capture many humans on the pretense on healing them. CMOlings are best played stealthily. Try not to get anyone too suspicious with you, and see if you can ask the HoP for maintenance access. | ||
