The Chief Medical Officer (CMO) is the command head of the Medical Department. A shift as CMO can be the most boring experience ever or some of the most stressful shit of your entire career. Keep your staff in check and well trained and the medbay working smoothly, and assist in healing the crew with your Hypospray. (Keep in mind that it can be very dangerous if it falls into the wrong hands, so keep it close).
Duties
Some of your basic duties as CMO are:
1) To keep your staff in check. Occasionally you will receive chemists or doctors that will avoid their responsibilities to make LSD or ignoring patients. Don't be afraid to replace bad chemists (e.g not making meds or making dangerous compounds). Chemistry is the absolute heart of medical. Without chemicals (in pill or liquid form, both work) medical is reduced to topicals, epinephrine, and hope.
2) Make sure that your doctors have quick and easy access to medicine. This includes ordering Nanomed restock crates and printing defibrillators that both salv and your paramedics stole. Pro tip: remember to keep defibs charged, and attempt to acquire high-capacity batteries from Science or Security if you can.
3) Ensuring that new medical staff have the proper training they need to start their journey into medical, this includes new chemists as well. Ensure all new doctors understand the basics of topicals, chemicals, using the defibrillator (as well as turning it off when not in use), and evaluating when a patient is fast the point of return.
4) Endure the constant nagging of the crew. Enact your revenge by making an announcement dunking on people with their coordinates off.
5) Assist in treating the crew. Your Hypospray isn’t just for decoration, it’s a powerful instant needle. You can store up to 30u of reagents in your hypospray. Don't be afraid to have a few different medicines loaded for ease of treatment. Just make sure you're not mixing medicines that react negatively with each other.
Follow the 5 duties above and you should be fine.
