Mission: Mission 1: The Return to Faltan
Location: Captain’s Lounge, Command Deck, Faltan Station
Timeline: MD01 - 1430

Harry had finally managed to get his new office into some sort of order. He was quite surprised with the amount of space he actually had here, far more than any starship Ready Room he was accustomed too. He finally took a seat behind his desk, coffee in hand to finally get down to some work. He tapped on the deck interface and ... nothing. He placed the coffee down before rubbing his face in frustration. You knew this wasn’t going to be easy. He thought to himself. He then realise Laddie was looking at him from his new replicated bed, which sat in the corner of lounge. “Looks like you’ve got it sussed, haven’t you boy.” Harry said with a chuckle just before his door chime went off.

Calista had been on Falton for a little under 6 hours. She had visited the medical building first and found it desolate, with no medical staff assigned to the former admin team any medical emergencies would have been handled by the local hospital. A to-do list a mile long she came to report in.

“Come.” He called out as he adjusted his uniform jacket, regretting not taking it off before he sat down.

Calista stepped in and offered the Captain a smile. "Captain Refelian, I'm Doctor Aereen your CMO." She said striding across the rather large office.

Harry rose to his feet and smiled, “Welcome to what’s left of Faltan Station.” He said as he offered the Doctor his hand across his desk.

She shook his hand and took one of the seats across from him. "This is my preliminary report on the medical facilities. There is a pretty extensive amount of cleaning to be done before we can begin getting it to a medical grade of clean. I've prioritized which specific facilities need to be done first so we can have a basic medical facility running. I've also included a preliminary supply requisition. Admittedly it's quite extensive, priorities red, yellow, and green. Red we ideally need before anyone gets much more than a cold, yellow we need before the step up in population, which i believe is scheduled for two or three months. Green is the wish list. "

Harry thumbed his way through the report for a couple of minutes. He agreed with it but man power was the main problem at the moment. “I’ll give your supply requisition to the first officer when she arrives. I’m assuming you’ve already checked this list against the supplies already assigned to us and on their way?”

"Of course, my department is quiet small at the moment, I've informed everyone that they've been drafted to cleaning duty, but anyone from base operations that can be spared to help us get us to an initial level of operations would be helpful." Aereen replied, "As well I understanding that we'll have some small ships assigned to us, any that our station with useable medical facilities may need to be designated our emergency med for now, I wouldn't want to treat anything in that medical building until we get it clean."

“I agree, the medical department needs to have some priority.” Harry said with a nod. “We are spread very thinly at the moment, but I’ll speak to Commander M’Mira and see if we can spare some people to get at least some parts of the medical hub, up and running.” Refelian pauses for a moment in thought, “Could a temporary field hospital be set up until the Medical hub is up and running?”

"It could, but with the limited number of medical personnel we have it would be stretching them even thinner. That's why I recommend we use one of our vessels, until we get the hub usable. It would in essence serve as a field hospital, baring a major medical emergency, and we wouldn't have some of the same issues we would with an actual field hospital. In essence, space is good at keeping things clean and preserved." She replied.

Refelian thought for a moment, if the Stations new ship arrives as scheduled with the First Officer, that would serve the medical department in the interim until the Medical Hub was up and running. “Alright, we’ve got a Wallace Class starship arriving tomorrow. Do you think you could utilise that until the Medical Hub is up to standard?”

"I mean I'd love something a bit bigger," She said with a grin, "It would certainly do the trick for now, given the size of the medical facilities on board I'd like permission to post a duty nurse. The ship could beam up anyone who makes an emergency medical call and the nurse would be able to call in an on-call doctor if needed."

“No need, Doctor.” Harry said with a chuckle. “She’ll be situated at Landing pad 2. I appreciate there is a size issue but I’m hopeful that the Medical Hub will be operational sooner rather than later.”

"Perfect that should work for the time being. We're hoping to have an initial operablity in a few days. The Med-labs and the last few ORs will be a bit longer but we'll be able to handle anything that should come up." She replied.

“Excellent, if anything major does come up then we have ships ferrying supplies to us so if need be they’ll have to lend a hand.” Harry said satisfied that they had come to a workable agreement. “Is there anything else you need or wish to discuss?”

"That should be everything Captain." She replied rising to her feet.

“It’s been a pleasure.” The Captain said also standing. “I look forward to working with you.”

She nodded and turned on her heel to head back to medical.
