The primary mission of the MEMS is to guard the welfare of Malton’s inhabitants by healing them, protecting them from potential harm, and aiding the [[MFD]] in their duties. We are healers, helping the wounded and reviving the dead. Like combat medics always have, we go where the fighting is the worst and the need is the greatest.

Surgery, Shopping, and Bargain Hunting
*Body Building
*Hand To Hand Combat
*Axe Proficiency


Shopping and Bargain Hunting increase the availability of FAKS and make it possible to stock up.
Body Building improves the Medic’s ability to outlast a potential assailant (be they PKer or Zombie). Hand To Hand Combat and Axe Proficiency work for self defense, as well as building maintenance. The idea is for MEMS member to depend less on others to ensure a decent Safehouse.<br>
<br>
'''''Tier 2.5: Advanced Skills Extras (Not Mandatory)'''''
* Lurching Gait
* Ankle Grab


'''Tier 3: Science Skills'''
The following skills are important in improving AP usage if (un)dead, but not mandatory. Ankle Grab eliminates the high AP cost of simply standing up after dying to just 1 AP, while Lurching Gait improves on this benefit by only costing 1 AP to walk around (instead of 2).<br>
NecroTech Employment, Lab Experience, and NecroNet Access
<br>
 
'''Tier 3: Capstone Skills'''
Tier 2 and 3 can be exchanged depending upon the needs of the suburb as far as reviving goes. If Tier 3 is more valuable. In any case, both these tiers should be gained before moving onto the fourth, and final, tier.
*First Aid
*Surgery


If you are not a medic class character (i.e. you don't start with first aid), and you have not taken the first aid skill as part of your level one skills, then you must take it before moving on from tier 2 to tier 4 skills. Surgery should also be gained at this point, because it enables one to hold ‘clinic hours’ at a hospital and provide up to 15 HP in healing. Very useful to help conserve FAKs.<br>

This is a grab bag of skills that aren’t critical. I’d suggest Body Building because it adds some protection for the medic. Tagging helps inform survivors of critical safety information, but you can tag even without skill. Everything else is open to choice. Guns are nice, but you have to spend time searching for ammo instead of FAKs. Etc.

''How many FAKS should I carry?''
*'''How many FAKS should I carry?'''<br>
If you are in the MEMS, you should carry as many as you can. Aim for gathering 15-20 FAKS on a supply run. By the time you get to 5 FAKS, you should be planning your next mall run. You should not let your supply run below three except in the case of a dire emergency.

''How many FAKS should my colleagues carry?''
DEMS members are required to carry at least one FAK for personal use at all times. In times of siege, battle, natural disaster, etc., the MEMS encourage all branches of the DEMS to carry enough reserve FAKS to heal themselves when seriously wounded.

If you have Body Building and First-Aid: carry 3 FAKs (30 HP worth of healing)

Goals and Guidelines

Members of the Malton Emergency Medical Services branch of the MFD follow the same basic guidelines and policies as all DEM member groups, although with a focus on providing emergency medical care. This includes activities that safeguard survivors in order to prevent injury, and protecting survivor access to FAKs so that they can care for each other.

Mission Statement

The primary mission of the Malton Emergency Medical Services branch of the DEM is to guard the welfare of Malton’s inhabitants by healing them, protecting them from potential harm, and aiding the MFD in their duties. We are healers, helping the wounded and reviving the dead. Like combat medics always have, we go where the fighting is the worst and the need is the greatest.

Job Description/Priority Tasks

  • Conduct regular rounds throughout the suburb.
  • Respond to requests for healing.
  • Assist local DEM officers in their efforts, particularly when it comes to securing and holding hospitals and Necrotech buildings (the fewer there are of either of these in any given burb, the more important it is to protect them). This will include barricading buildings, reporting building status, and securing buildings after a breach. See the MFD page for more information on these duties.
  • Recruit other medics to join the Malton Emergency Medical Services branch of the MFD.

In some suburbs, members may play a role in the following, depending on need:

  • Holding clinic hours in powered hospitals (taking advantage of the surgery skill).
  • Establishing or maintaining revive services.
  • Providing medical treatment for the recently revived.
  • Establishing a standing clinic in areas where there is limited hospital access.

Joining

Any Doctor with no record of PKing is eligible to join the Malton Emergency Medical Services branch of the Malton Fire Department. All new members receive rigorous survival and tactics training at The Academy before receiving their first assignment. If interested in joining, apply on the 'Join the MFD' thread! Be sure to include a link to your profile and your current location.

Merits and Ribbons

The Department of Emergency Management has a series of DEM Merits and Ribbons it issues to members who display mastery over key skills. The ribbons can be claimed by any member with the profficiency of the skills entailed. Summary of these ribbons and the means to claim them can be found on the DEM Merits and Ribbons page.

Operations Guide

Skill Priorities

Prerequisite: First aid, and preferably possession of a fireaxe (these can be found in fire stations).

The Malton Emergency Medical Services branch of the MFD is currently open only to medics and doctors. The MFD, MPD, and MCDU all provide places for Maltonites with different skill sets.

Tier 1: The Basics
Acquire these skills first:

  • Free-running (this is your first priority, for your own safety)
  • Construction
  • Diagnosis or First Aid

Ideally, members should gain all three skills before moving onto the next tier.

Tier 2: Advanced Skills

  • Body Building
  • Hand To Hand Combat
  • Axe Proficiency

Body Building improves the Medic’s ability to outlast a potential assailant (be they PKer or Zombie). Hand To Hand Combat and Axe Proficiency work for self defense, as well as building maintenance. The idea is for MEMS member to depend less on others to ensure a decent Safehouse.

Tier 2.5: Advanced Skills Extras (Not Mandatory)

  • Lurching Gait
  • Ankle Grab

The following skills are important in improving AP usage if (un)dead, but not mandatory. Ankle Grab eliminates the high AP cost of simply standing up after dying to just 1 AP, while Lurching Gait improves on this benefit by only costing 1 AP to walk around (instead of 2).

Tier 3: Capstone Skills

  • First Aid
  • Surgery

If you are not a medic class character (i.e. you don't start with first aid), and you have not taken the first aid skill as part of your level one skills, then you must take it before moving on from tier 2 to tier 4 skills. Surgery should also be gained at this point, because it enables one to hold ‘clinic hours’ at a hospital and provide up to 15 HP in healing. Very useful to help conserve FAKs.

Tier 4: The Rest
Basically everything that is left over: NecroTech Employment, Lab Experience, and NecroNet Access, Basic firearms Training, Pistol Training, Advanced Pistol Training, Shotgun Training, Advanced Shotgun Training, Knife Combat, Tagging, Shopping, Bargain Hunting, and Head Shot.

This is a grab bag of skills that aren’t critical. Tagging helps inform survivors of critical safety information, but you can tag even without the skill. Everything else is open to choice. The NecroTech skills are good to give a boost to your fellow DEM associates. Guns are nice, but you have to spend time searching for ammo instead of FAKs.

FAK Guidelines & Triage Protocol

(or, the FAK FAQ)

  • How many FAKS should I carry?
If you are in the Malton Emergency Medical Services branch of the MFD, you should carry as many as you can. Aim for gathering 15-20 FAKS on a supply run. By the time you get to 5 FAKS, you should be planning your restock / supply run. You should not let your supply go below three except in the case of a dire emergency.
  • How many FAKS should my colleagues carry?
DEMS members are required to carry at least one FAK for personal use at all times. In times of siege, battle, natural disaster, etc., the Malton Emergency Medical Services branch of the MFD encourages all branches of the DEM to carry enough reserve FAKS to heal themselves when seriously wounded.
  • What does being seriously wounded consist of?
Having less than half of your full HP.
  • FAK Math
    • If you have Body Building and First-Aid: carry 3 FAKs (30 HP worth of healing)
    • If you have Body Building, and no First-Aid: 5 FAKs (25 HP worth of healing)
    • If you don’t have Body Building and you do have First Aid: 2 FAKs
    • If you don’t have Body Building and don’t have First Aid: 4-5 FAKs
  • So, I Just Wander Around and Heal People, Right?
Not quite. We don’t heal at random any more than we revive at random. Know who you are healing. Check their profile. Even if you have 20 of them, you don’t want to squander a FAK. Use the following considerations to triage the wounded:
Who Should I Heal?
Tier I
  • Yourself if you are at 40 or below.
  • Other team members (meaning DEM personnel) at 40 HP or below.
Tier II
  • People who are known allies.
  • Survivors who regularly work with us.
  • Survivors who have revival skills WITHOUT any zombie skills aside from lurching gait or ankle grab (considered to be relatively benign, as they are skills of convenience rather than malice) and who are at 40 or below.
Tier III
  • Other survivors and/or newbies between 20-40.
In times of crisis, frankly, anyone below 20 is -- how can I say this? -- liable to have a limited return on your FAK investment. A level one who sits around in a building getting munched down to 18 HP is probably going to be dead before the day is out with or without your FAK, so save your kit. Your job is not to save everyone - your job is to save as many as you can while accepting that some survivors are going to die no matter what help you are able to give them.
  • What If I Am Out of FAKs?
If you or someone you know is in dire need of healing and you do not have enough FAKS to heal them, please get in touch with a colleague in the Malton Emergency Medical Services branch of the MFD (or the DEM) and let them know who needs healing and where that person is located.

Promotions and Advancement

Promotion is based on leveling up coupled with work well done (and well done work being noticed by command - which means making sure you are active on your reporting thread, follow commands, and demonstrate that you understand what the priorities are in your suburb). Prerequisites are not hard-and-fast. The following are a minimum for promotion to a higher rank; promotion also depends on the recommendation of your CO. If you level up quickly, but no one hears from you or sees you around, you won’t get promoted.
