Description

Hospital Designated Entry Point

Eligius General Hospital is at the heart of the suburb so is well staffed and usually always powered. The local group administering this building is the Malton Medical Staff and The co-ordinates are [65, 54] and the building is an Entry Point maintained at VSB+2.

Barricade Policy

The Roftwood Barricade Plan states this Hospital is a free running entry point and maintained at VSB+2. Please keep the barricades at this level and no higher to allow lower level players access to the medical care and equipment that can be found inside. Additionally, the Hospital serves as an official entry point to Hildebrand Mall so special attention is taken to ensure the barricades remain at VSB+2 at all times.

During times of zombie siege (i.e. when there are over 30 or 40 zombies outside), the barricades will be temporarily raised to full EHB to protect the Hospital and the people inside. Once the danger has passed, barricades are lowered back to VSB+2 as soon as possible. Annoucements about the change in barricade status are made on the main Roftwood suburb page.

Should the Hospital fall, survivors can escape to the safe-houses that can be found either just a few AP away from the building.

Note: During periods of heavy zombie activity or siege, some VSB+2 buildings are likely to be raised to EHB also (if they have not already been ransacked) however this Hospital must remain at VSB+2 for as long as possible.

Hospital Policies

Health and Safety

This Hospital operates to the following set of health and safety standards set by the Malton Hospitals Group:

  • Try to keep this Hospital powered and fuelled at all times.
  • Keep this Hospital Zombie-free, they tend to eat the patients.
  • Repair barricade damage when possible and maintain at VSB+2.
  • Keep at least one doctor in this Hospital.
  • Nobody is low priority. We're all in this together; the Level-1 starter you save today could be the one to headshot the Zombie chewing on your arm a few months later.
  • If there are staff to spare, make local ambulance runs to support survivors outside the Hospital.
  • Keep a radio inside the building, and please transmit on the local frequency, 26.17 MHz.

Healing in times of Siege

In times of heavy siege, first aid kits can become scarce and so this is the order for healing patients, should things begin to look dire. Please adhere to this plan:

  1. Heal those infected by zombie bites first
  2. Heal active players (especially if they have just killed a Zombie)
  3. Heal those with less than 25HP so they are not targeted as "wounded" by zombies
  4. Heal those with less than 13HP so they cannot be dragged out into the street should the barricades come crashing down.

Staff are expected to heal and fight until they have only a few reserve AP for escape to nearby safe-houses.

Disruptive Visitors

Visitors and patients who are known to be Player Killers, Generator Killers or Radio Killers will be warned and closely monitored. Hospital staff are at liberty to insist such people leave should they begin causing trouble (by taunting or attacking). Failing this, physical removal will occur. Please be assured this is only if there is trouble. Those with KOS bounty status will be killed on sight.

The Hospital staff have the right to work in a safe, zombie free environment without the fear of humans turning against them too. This Hospital policy will be enforced.

To prevent abuse, proof of PK'ing, GK'ing or RK'ing should be announced to those around you before beginning "annoying person removal" procedures.


Eligius General Hospital Administrator wishes you a warm and welcoming stay and hopes you get well soon.
