  • The ward is one of the most powerful, useful and critical rooms, but it is also easy to design them poorly and have them become a bit of a mess. Today we cover one of THE most optimal ways to build your ward on a budget that can afford it at the start of any level.

    The most annoying part of the game is room prestige to be achieved through ugly paintings and gold stars hanging all over the walls.

      After my stroke when I spent a entire week in the hospital, I didn't see any art hanging on the walls. No plants either. The staff kept the ward as germ free as possible, almost to the point a decade later I still smell chlorine everywhere... We are lucky to have a blanket on the bed in a hospital... There is no such thing as room prestige in a hospital...

      Joseph Albritton i mean, they had a stroke, they may or may not have some lasting effects from it, or perhaps it was a painful experience. I agree that it’s not worth such a negative reaction but I’m inclined to believe it’s coming from a place of pain.

      ​@@hizzee16 After the first couple of hospitals, they start getting a lot bigger, and patient walking time becomes a significant factor. If you put all of your diagnosis rooms near your GP Offices, then they can go there and back quickly. You don't want them to walk to the opposite side of the hospital and back. Your treatment rooms, on the other hand, are the last stop for each patient. They won't have to come back, so they can be far without much of an issue. The Ward can handle both diagnosis and treatment, so by having two, you can set the close one to diagnosis and the more distant one to treatment. Hopefully that makes sense.

      Absolutely agree with this. It’s not too bad on the same level as you can copy and paste a room, but being able to save a room would allow you to use again in a new level/hospital. I know that maybe they want to keep the challenge going as different hospitals have different needs, therefore your rooms will be designed according to each hospital’s requirements, but you could easily just edit the room. I’m a bit boring and tend to keep the same design aesthetic/colour scheme, so placing a saved room template of my own design would be handy.

    you can fit in five medicine cabinettes. arrange the two beds facing against the four ones via controll very tight against their counterparts. i switched the coffee machine from the right side to the left one so its closer to the nurse station.
    So we have a coffeemachine in the lower left corner facing the station, 90 degrees clockwise turned the medicines cabinette next to the coffee machine. and there you now got the right buttom corner free for two medicine cabinettes with the inversed position as the coffee machine and the MC on the other side.I wish i simply could do a screenshot and post it here. Hope it was understandable english. ^^but keep on with your nice tips~Greetings from Germany

      Thank you. And you are in luck: The Fracture Ward is my next tip video releasing later today.
      As for people getting stuck. I too have observed this, in both the fracture Ward and normal ward. It seems to happen when a patient's request to either be put to bed or helped out of bed gets cancelled. Picking up and putting back down the bed seems to snap the patient out of it, have them find a new bed and generate a new request. I think that is more of a bug in the AI rather than a behavior caused by a densely designed room.

  • @rodh1404
    @rodh1404 Před 5 lety

    I've been experimenting with tweaking this ward, and if you squeeze things in a bit, it's actually possible to fit 5 wall monitors and 4 medicine cabinets in this space, along with six beds, the hand sanitiser, coffee maker, sweet dispenser radiator and a chair. Put the radiator between the screens as close to the desk as possible, and the chair also between the screens facing the beds. Squeeze those two beds as close as possible together and you can change those medicine cabinet to the cheaper wall monitors. If you want to, there's also enough space to put two medicine cabinets alongside those beds, and another two beside the screen near the door (although I haven't tested how that will effect pathing).

    • @rodh1404
      @rodh1404 Před 5 lety +1

      After a lot of thought and experimentation, I've come to the conclusion that while this is a good Ward design, it's not a great one. The reason is pretty simple - when it comes to Wards, including the Fracture Ward, bigger is better. And the more you depend on your Ward, the bigger you need to make it because you can fit more beds, and more medicine cabinets and wall monitors, making it much more effective.
      For example, if you have a Ward with 3 nurses, 12 beds and 20 (wall monitors and medicine cabinets), they are going to handle more patients faster, and have a significantly better chance of both diagnosis and treatment. And if you can make the ward even bigger, you can just add more medicine cabinets to make the room that much more effective.

      Would love a guide on an efficient toilet if you've got any ideas!

    Could you move the radiator, still between the beds, but further to the foot of the bed for slightly better coverage?

      I believe you can, although still between the beds. My radiators tend to work everywhere in the rooms and corridors.

      The staff tab of the room. My updated Power Ward video shows you how to do it.

    Do you think 1 4x4 sized Ward with 6 beds would be better than 2 3x2 sized Ward with 3 beds?

    Sweet! How bout seeing what higher treatment training gives highest cure rate? I'm curious what's better, 5 highest curing or 4 then speed!

      That would be difficult to strictly track because different illnesses have different difficulty levels. A Max-difficulty illness would need and benefit from all 5 levels of skill where as a low-difficulty illness might hit 100% at 2-3 levels of skill, making it more efficient for your staff to possibly have some secondary soft skills (Motivation, Bedside Manner, Stamina, etc). I will be doing a video on training and skills, but more testing is needed!

    How to you get two nurses in 1 ward? Coz I try to place 2 nurses there, just 1 of them will automatically gets out. Is that the later game or it never can place 2 nurses there?
