One of the most important developments of modern medical history is the creation of the Cryogenics system. Every Medical department comes equipped with one to two enormous Cryogenic Cells, and these devices simplify treating even the most wounded of patients down to pressing a few buttons, though they will need to be initially set up and maintained throughout the course of their service. | One of the most important developments of modern medical history is the creation of the Cryogenics system.

Cryogenics tubes need a few crucial pieces to function, the first of which is [[Guide_to_chemistry#Cryoxadone|Cryoxadone]]. Cryoxadone is a powerful regenerative chemical, but it only functions when the patient is at extremely low temperatures, which will be addressed shortly. A few spare beakers of Cryoxadone should be located near the Cryogenic Cells at the start of the round for quick insertion, but with too much use they will need to be replaced by Chemistry. | Cryogenics tubes need a few crucial pieces to function, the first of which is [[Guide_to_chemistry#Cryoxadone|Cryoxadone]].

Also note that cryoxadone, when in your system, will make you dizzy and drop items. | ||
Next, turn on the freezer attached to the Cryogenics pipe network and set the temperature as low as possible. This will cause patients in the cells to plummet in temperature, activating the healing properties of the Cryoxadone. | Next, turn on the freezer attached to the Cryogenics pipe network and set the temperature as low as possible.

With default keybinds you can ctrl click then alt click the freezer to both turn it on and turn the temperature to the lowest possible setting. | ||
Next, you need to hook the nearby Oxygen canisters into the pipe network to make sure the patient doesn't drown inside the cell when it is flooded with Cryoxadone-laced water. Grab the nearby Medical Wrench and simply click on the tanks to tie them in to the pipe network. As with Cryoxadone, these canisters will need to be replaced with too much use, as their contents will empty out. | Next, you need to hook the nearby Oxygen canisters into the pipe network to make sure the patient doesn't drown inside the cell when it is flooded with Cryoxadone-laced water.

*If a miasma disease is spread around, medbay is expected to do something about it. Since most people don't carry a health analyzer on them, you can simply say someone is sick with a miasma disease and inject them with a syringe full of the "cure." If you're smart (or at least think the player you're poisoning is smart), you should only pull this on people actually sick with a miasma disease so you can point to their symptoms as proof of a disease. | *If a miasma disease is spread around, medbay is expected to do something about it.

You are a Doctor. Your job is to help people - sometimes forcibly - and deal with the fallout from the numerous violent calamities that inevitably descend on the station. You serve both as a go-between for the station at large and the more specialized Medical departments. Medical is a challenging and thankless place to work. People will only acknowledge your existence when they have a need for your services, and even then, they will shove their way past you to put themselves in a Sleeper Pod and demand attention. Additionally, individuals will often seek Medical's supplies, such as soap, space cleaner bottles, and syringe guns. You're a likely target in an attack on the station, as wiping out the ability to heal and clone significantly cripples the station. People will often grab supplies from the Medical vending machines and leave without a word, only stopping to yell profanities at you when you try and stop them. It can be discouraging and crushing work, especially when a rush of injured people all pour in at once and do nothing but scream at you to help them first, or when a viral outbreak occurs and your department is swamped by rioting plagued people. But being a Medical Doctor can be full of rewards, such as seeing someone who came through the doors nearly dead walk out unassisted in perfect health thanks to your intervention, or getting a heartfelt thank you from the Botanist after you stitched his legs back on. | You are a Doctor.
