  • Hospitals can be barricaded normally.

Description

An austere Victorian teaching hospital, among severely overgrown grounds.

History

Opened by Queen Victoria's nephew, Prince Adalbert von Jung-Gestalt, St Siricius (named after the patron saint of patron saints) was one of Malton's foremost teaching hospitals and a renowned centre of medical excellence. It was in these wards and laboratories that Professor Humbert Hooplhaus led a team of Teutonic doctors which spearheaded medical advances in industrialised Malton.

Surgical treatments were found for a range of hideous ailments such as the loathsome Orange Lung Disease, Melted Toes Syndrome, and Ear-Rot. In time, the treatments offered went beyond amputation to include massive doses of radiation, imbibing mercury by the pint, and encouraging patients to chain-smoke, "in order for the lungs and heart thoroughly to be purified", as Hooplhaus wrote.

Local schoolboy and engineering genius Walfrid Warburton donated his brain to the hospital, and it was kept in a jar until the Malton Incident, when it mysteriously disappeared. The empty jar is still on its shelf, intact.

Warburton's brain: like a pickled egg, only chewier.

The hospital is now busier than ever, and the skills of First Aid and Surgery can still be acquired here by those willing and able to stay alive long enough to learn them.

Barricade Policy

Since St. Matthew's Hospital, which is designated VSB++, is in very close proximity to this hospital, St. Siricius's should be barricaded to EHB. This is suggested per the barricade plan found here

Current Status

For Future Help, recording a date to the building status is recommended.

Reports more than two months old should be placed in the archives.
