NOTES:
The R-1 Mercy Type orbital
medical center functions both as a research center for medicine
and xenobiology and as a hospital for treating medical emergencies
in the far-flung regions of Federation space. In time of war, these
stations can operate just behind the frontlines, allowing medical
personnel to treat the maximum number of wounded in the shortest
possible time. The R-1 Mercy is based on the standard R-1 design,
with the following modifications.
Patient
Wards (Levels 2-4)
Capable of handling up to 200 patients, these levels contain support
stations and diagnostic computers for monitoring patients.
Administrative
Level (Level 7)
Besides storing shuttlecraft, this deck contains administrative
off ices and conference rooms.
Medical
Research Labs (Level 15)
Several medical laboratories replace the repair bays of the standard
R-1 Type station. The radiology lab allows medical personnel to
conduct tests on and treat victims of radiation poisoning. The prosthetics
lab contains artificial limbs, organs, and implants for disfigured
persons of almost every Federation race.
Surgical
Ward (Level 16)
The surgical ward includes 20 operating rooms, as well as postoperative
and recovery rooms.
Dining
Level (Level 17)
These dining facilities serve both staff and visitors
