==History==
Barbara General Hospital was founded in 1903 during the Edwardian era. It was built by noted philanthropist and psoriasis sufferer Archibald Winston as a medical clinic for the less fortunate.  


Barbara General Hospital's earliest incarnation dates back to the Industrial Revolution, when it was erected by noted coprolalaia sufferer Winston Barbara as a private convalescent home for his long-suffering and unfortunately-named wife Barbara, whose frail mental state did not stand up well to her husband's condition. Though she, and several other Victorian socialites of similar nervous disposition, were treated by a small, sullen, and eerily mute caste of Eastern mystics, the paper-thin walls of the hospital still rang out daily and nightly with wails of "Please be quiet!" - evidently, the women's long lives of enduring aural unpleasantries had left too indelible a mark.  
During the early stages of the outbreak, Barbara General's chief administrator decided to convert the hospital into a general purpose shelter.<br>
Untouched by artillery, mischief or the blitz throughout both World Wars, the staff at the ever-growing facility sill had to endure long periods of air-raid sirens, the explosions of shells and the collapsing of nearby buildings, all whilst just trying to get a bit of peace and quiet. And when Churchill was buried, by God, the ''noise'' from all those radios! Some people just have no decency. Even that nurse who went insane and killed seventeen newborn babies did it ''quietly''. For shame.
It was felt that this would better suit the current [as of July 2005] needs of the local citizens.<br>
During the early stages of the outbreak, Barbara's chief of staff decided to seal up the hospital's doors and windows after forcibly "evacuating" the remaining patients, believing that at long last his peace had arrived. However, it was only shortly afterwards that people, ''all these noisy God damn '''people''''', started arriving, with the clankety generators and bang-bang-bang guns and ''all the incessant talking''. There's just no quiet around here any more.

Basic Info:

  • Excellent place to find first aid kits. Zombies frequently check inside.
  • Portable Generators have a use other than powering the lights and increasing search probability in hospitals. Players with the Surgery Skill can heal for 15 HP if the Hospital has a fueled up Generator.
  • Hospitals can be barricaded normally.
  • Among the internal descriptions found in Hospitals:
    • "...its wards and corridors blackened with the soot of a recent fire"
    • "...its empty wards criss-crossed with snapped quarantine tape."
    • "...one of the city's psychiatric hospitals."
    • "...dark corridors leading through abandoned wards."
    • "...its emergency room in disarray."
    • "...its lobby covered with quarantine posters."
    • "...a children's hospital with bright murals across the walls. "
    • "The main lobby is riddled with bullet holes."
    • "It was one of the last to be evacuated, and seems to have been cleared out in a hurry."
    • "...a derelict hospital that was closed down years ago."
