How to Manage Hospital Care and Emergency Triage

Routing Injured Townspeople to Hospital Beds

Combat and environmental hazards can leave your colony's defense force and workforce in critical condition.

• Set up dedicated hospital beds: Build and maintain an accessible medical facility with designated hospital beds.
• Autonomous recovery: When guards or townspeople take damage, their updated AI prompts them to disengage and actively seek out open hospital beds rather than wandering into danger or continuing to work while hurt.
• Keep paths accessible: Ensure the hospital entrance is connected to main town roads. Citizens will use stairs, paths, and ladders cleanly to reach medical care without falling off walkways.

Expediting Medical Treatments

Doctors handle incoming health crises much faster once patients arrive.

1. Station your medical staff at the clinic or hospital facility full-time.

2. Doctors prioritize emergency cases immediately, triaging critically injured guards and workers ahead of standard tasks.

3. The treatment time for standard citizen illnesses is significantly accelerated, curing townspeople and returning them to their housing or workstations quickly.

4. Keep animals safely inside fenced pens nearby to ensure town doctors and patients have unobstructed pathways into the building.
