With your [[virologist]], check in occasionally on what they're making and ensure they don't release viruses without your approval; have them ask before doing so. If they struggle with making a healing virus or seem unknowledgeable, try to educate them on some good starter viruses.

===Command===
As Chief Medical Officer, you are a direct link between command and medical. If any command member meets an ill fate or requires medical attention, you should be the first to know and the one to heal them. While healing, you should take extra care to ensure that their belongings remain as they were when they first arrived in medbay, as some opportunistic [[Traitor|individuals]] may attempt to steal an item or access from you while you are distracted.

If you are feeling extra paranoid, you can use the operating table that comes pre-installed in your office.↵If command, or generally anyone, dies, you should likely let security know before attempting to retrieve them as to not to risk yourself or your paramedics. If there is an AI, ask them to scout the area to ensure no foul play.

===Delegation and Prioritization===
===Delegation and Prioritization===
When you are CMO, you should attempt to learn how to prioritize healing and reviving based on injury and rank. It would be best if you were prioritizing command, sec, then medical over everyone else when reviving; however, these are more so soft guidelines, and the state in which a patient is will heavily affect this. For example, if you have a research director roll in and they are missing all of their organs with 600 brute damage while you have a bartender has 150 burn damage, it would be better to prioritize the bartender as the time to heal is low. However, if you have a doctor on hand, you would order them to fix the bartender while you work on the research director. There are over a million different scenarios that play out, and it will take time to get used to, and it will be hard at first, but as long as you stay calm and use your brain, you should be fine. Remember to utilize your doctors and give them orders, helping them stay organized and focused in an emergency. If they are experienced, you should be able to trust them to work by themselves, however, don't feel scared to try to move them around.
