Drake went back through the clinic to find Doctor Rinne. He found someone in a labcoat rushing around to too many patients. He caught the doctor’s eye. “Doctor Rinne? I’m Doctor Drake Marshall, this is Nurse Pilar. We’re from the Starfleet aid team.”-Dr Drake Marshall
OOC: As per the thread we just came from, there is only one patient in there currently who requested Anni’s to treat her. If you refer to the diagram I drew of the clinic on the MOTD, you can basically assume the right half of it is damaged by the storm and blocked up with the flexible barriers (if not perfectly). The whole function of the clinic was shifted to be squashed into the left side of the diagram and they are currently in what amounts to Reception, but is now their Primary Care area.
IC:Jonathan had decided to go to the Medical Team, his skills may not fit the situation but he had medical training and had worked in war time conditions healing people with very little. He saw Alison and the others but kept to the side wanting to step in where he could. Taking out his tricorder he began taking his own scan of the patient.
The petite blond smiled, if wearily, at them before continuing to examine the Romulan woman’s arm. “I’ll be right with you.” She spoke softly to Ketra and added a salve to what looked to be a nasty flesh wound on her forearm that was slowly healing. Wrapping the arm in a fresh bandage, she bade Ketra good day, cleaned up and moved over to the officers.
“Hi, it’s nice to meet you,” Rinne said enthusiastically, offering her hand. “You’re wanting to check out our supply situation?”

Pilar came over “I’m Pilar O’Keefe, head nurse on the Ogawa.” She said looking at Drake “I can take care of the supply inventory and start making requests to the Ogawa to beam down what we need.” She said “If that’s okay with you.” She said as she grabbed one of her nurses to help her with this task.
“Sure, our current supplies are in the back, and I can walk you through them in a minute. Our old supply area was destroyed in the storm. Lost everything in it,” Rinne replied.
Drake shook her hand. “And after that get to work. You seem plenty busy. We have clearance to transport any consenting patients up to the Ogawa. I can work here though. Compared to some other places I’ve been, this is paradise.”

“You know we can fix that now with something other than just a bandage,” Ally said looking at the woman who was just treated. Like any other doctor, the woman was doing the best she could for her patients with what she had. The difference was Ally had a medical tricorder and the ability to fix the woman pretty much good as new. “I have a dermal regenerator in my bag,” Ally swung the medical pack around and pulled the regenerator from it. “May I,” she asked Rinne looking at the woman.

“It’s a third degree burn we’ve been healing in stages. It’s much improved from when Ketra arrived. Go ahead and take a look. We didn’t have the ability to do a graft, so now that that is an option, we can weigh the pros and cons of dong one now,” Anni said.
“Ketra this is Doctor… Sorry I didn’t catch your name?” Rinne said.
~Mischief Maker
Drake had no consideration for the ongoing conversation. “If we take measurements of the burn and take a skin sample, I can have the Ogawa create a graft made out of her own tissue. Then just put it in place. Easy. I can make the graft here if you have a replicator that will take custom input.”
-Dr Drake Marshall
“Wait… why are we doing a skin graft again instead of the dermal regenerator? These things can easily take care of third degree burns, radtion burns, scaring, heal wounds and create skin over them… I am at a lost why we are not going to use the tool we have at hand? Is there something preventing their use?” Jonathan chimed up, he hadn’t said anything but it did perplex him. Was there something going on he was unaware of? He often didn’t have tools such as a dermal regenerator when he was in the field during the Dominion war, but they had the tool now.
OOC: I know this may sound like a broken record, http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Dermal_regenerator but this is shown to do grafts, fix third degree burns and even repair subnucleonic radiation. Is there a reason it can’t be used right now if we have one? Something maybe I missed? Just wanted to make sure we use the right tools at the right time as skin grafts had become almost a thing of the past, if Bones where here he might have called it archaic.

Drake sighed. “Yes. We can use a dermal regenerator. But it won’t heal perfectly.” Reez was ultimately right, but waving a dermal regenerator over it and walking away wasn’t Drake’s ideal. “There will still be scarring. But a dermal regenerator is fine. Those head traumas. Any of them need help? From just one emergency specialist?” So far all he had found was other officers, no interesting cases, no emergency cases. This had been so built up as a tragic area, Drake was a little disappointed.
-Dr Drake Marshall
OOC: That was just a Drake thing. He’s a perfectionist, so given the opportunity to do it a strange way that he prefers and thinks would leave the patient in better shape, he’s going to just take over.
“But there won’t be scaring, there won’t be anything. A dermal regenerator removes scaring, does grafts… and heals burns, both third degree, and even radiation burns. They did teach you this in medical school didn’t they Doctor Marshall?” Jonathan asked looking at him with a squint. Any modern doctor recommending grafts was to him the same as saying we should do leeches, or chemo therapy. They had perfected tools to do things so archaic practices didn’t have to be done.
