St. Alexander's Hospital
Basic Information
From outside, the hospital is described as a fire-damaged white-stone building, its doorway flanked by statues.
Upon entering, you are inside St Alexander's Hospital, its lobby covered with quarantine posters.
St. Alexander's Hospital is a important Entryway for Tompson Mall and therefore prohibited to be barricaded more than to very strongly except in case of emergency. This hospital is maintained by and is home to the Lockettside Valkyries. A particularly strong survivor presence is requested here, as break ins are frequent and this is not a particularly good building to lose.
Barricading Policy
St. Alexander's Hospital is only barricaded to VS +2 at all times due to the above-mentioned facts.
Generators
In order to be able to potentate the use of surgery and the necessary radio transmitter, inhabitants are requested to make sure the generator is continuously fueled.

Hospital Layout
Outside: Hospital Entrance; Garden. The entrance to the hospital has unfortunately become quite run down over the last couple of years. The walled back garden is quite different, however, with daily care by Izumi rain or shine, alive or...not. She has constructed a wooden shrine here which serves as a peaceful sanctuary to all guests. When able she also keeps several songbirds here, although they unfortunately are a major target for hostile zombie and angry survivor alike.
Basement: Storage. Supplies rarely run low due to the close proximity of the mall, although emergency rations and medical equipment in storage could keep a small group of survivors going for well over a year.
1st Floor: Lobby; ER; A1-A50. This once sterile hospital lobby has been converted to a welcoming foyer for comfortable post-apocalyptic life. Pictures, decorations, and carpeting cover the barren walls and tile floor beneath. The ER is still used to treat wounded, although the unreliable generators and general wear and tear have made it quite spartan in comparison to its earlier years. Hospital rooms on this floor are mostly barricaded to prevent hostiles breaking through windows, so none are worth mentioning.
2nd Floor: Galley; B1-B125. The second floor lobby has been refurbished into a crude galley where Izumi prepares daily meals. Always kept clean for use of fresh ingredients, the tantalizing aroma that drifts here reminds survivors that this isn't your local McZed's. Some survivors stay in the hospital rooms here, several of which have been decorated or even completely refurbished for a more home-like atmosphere.
3rd Floor: Pediatrics; OR; Laboratory; C1-C25. One of the hospital's more cluttered levels. The OR still functions and is used to treat severely injured patients. The Pediatrics ward has been almost completely torn down (as flu shots for toddlers are hardly a concern in today's age) to make room for the primary survivor lounge where guests spend most of their day. Expensive furniture has been brought in from the mall along with a few oriental pieces complements of Izumi. A makeshift bar serves drinks.
The testing laboratory no longer receives urine samples, but instead holds the hospital generator, when working. The surrounding rooms have been converted into a sort of power plant to make electricity distribution efficient.
4th Floor: Chapel; D1-D125. This floor is home to the St. Alexander Chapel where the religious go for sanctuary and prayer. A series of old staff lounges and offices on this level serve as makeshift rec rooms and libraries where guests may find games, books and hospital archives.
The bathrooms on this level have undergone a series of expansions to accommodate showers and several other amenities. This floor is also noted for housing the rooms of most Valkyrie staff.
5th floor: E1-E100. There is little worth noting on this floor, other than housing several permanent and temporary guests.
6th Floor: Observation; Hospital Operations/Management. The Ops room is rarely used anymore, as management in this era is practically non-existent. The computers are still here, although no one has really gotten around to hooking them up. The observation room is quite popular, however. Stargazers and casual viewers alike enjoy steaming coffee or tea in front of the large windows.
Roof: The roof isn't frequently visited as unsettling groans can be heard from greater distances than on the ground. However, some couples have been known to sneak onto the roof at night for some alone time.
Neo-Roof: The survivor know as kyleklbecka came to the roof and took some 2x4 n' tin sheets from the hardware stores and thompson mall to make the new floor, the neo-roof. It has a leather sofa, bed and some chairs, but used mainly for kyle's use.
Known Doctors
Dr.Kelly Brackett is a known doctor that operates at the hospital, Valkyrie staff also trained in medical fields.

Their mission is to protect the hospital, and all of Lockettside. This is a peaceful group, supporting the rights of peace of both humans and zombies. But if an attack is made, they will valiantly defend with their last breath. And even undead breath.
