Yes, there's an MDC system that allows us to track prescriptions and patient histories.

Are there any scripts for it done? I know cops probably have a lot of stuff to do their own jobs, but I wonder if there will be things that make surgeries more interact for doctors. A database system for the hospital to log visits and medical history.

[Thoughts on ped skins?]

Yes please. Though the ped skins may not work for players that may need to switch into work uniforms, they can use the GTO characters. But for gang members and other civs they could easily use the ped skins. They are just so much better than the GTA:O models.

Once we gauge the server's general interest in the faction, we'll see how to expand next. If there's enough interest in people joining the faction, then we may open it up to nurses, but there are no plans or timeline to do that at this point.

 

Don't fear roleplaying as a doctor. We have detailed guides on what to do in the situations you'll see. For those interested in more depth, we're also writing specific guides on specialties as well. But, there is no required outside knowledge you'll need to bring in.

 

I'd definitely encourage you to apply as a Resident Physician!

Alright, I did it! I must say I am not too familiar with most of the stuff on the app, but I did as much homework on it as I could xD

There's information here (on the LSFD forums) about that!

 

I will elaborate a little bit. We want to follow a realistic system, but there are a few constraints. There are no medical schools in-game (the last two years of med school are typically spent doing rounds in hospitals), so we simply ask that you RP that your character is in the 4th year of medical school and ready to apply for residencies. Now, you apply for residency through the AAMC - we roleplay that the application will be sent through that system. If you apply and are accepted, you will be asked to do an in-game interview. After that, you will do an examination and then training session before joining our staff. Those last few steps are for the sake of making sure you know how to some medical RP (at least according to the guides we provide) and do not reflect a realistic path toward residency.

 

Yes, roleplaying a doctor was monotonous at times. I was not around in 2011, but some of the same problems existed in 2014 and beyond. A few things that I can say are that (1) creating new locations/interiors for roleplay were amazing for boosting our RP. We won't directly control this point, it requires the grace of the developers. When we redid ASGH (both times), it boosted RP. The chance for normal "domestic" RP, sharing camaraderie with fellow staff members, is facilitated by this as well. When we opened the pathology center, we packed that place with normal medical RP (check-ups, STD checks, blood tests, infections, minor injuries). (2) Hosting events creates RP. We had a fundraiser for cancer, for example, that allowed some white collar RP opportunities for our staff beyond just medical RP. Hosting other events like blood drives boosted fun competition among the legal factions and gave us new opportunities for RP. Advertising vaccination clinics or check-ups also brought in many players. (3) We need an interested player base. This point goes for both staff and for patients. If people don't want to do hospital RP (pre-hospital is mundane enough for some), not much we can do about that; however, if we advertise ourselves and have nice locations to RP in, we can have some fun.

 

We will not control registration with non-LSFD physicians. Becoming a doctor is through the state, so the city faction should not have any interaction with that either. As LordSpyx explained above:

 

I was hoping to apply as a Nurse, as I prefer that type of RP over being a full blown doctor.

How would someone go abouts applying for a position at the hospital?
