1PM - 12AM 4PM - 12AM 4PM - 12AM 4PM - 12AM 4PM - 12AM 4PM - 12AM 1PM - 12AM

Firstly, my timezone is MDT (GMT-6), which aligns well with the activity of most players based on my experiences on similar servers, which typically coincides with others, perfect for engaging with the server. Though, I am a student entering her last year–which means I will unfortunately have things that will interfere with my activity occasionally for a short amount of time. But don’t be alarmed! I’ve managed to log on and be readily available overall in previous factions with consistency.

What is your motivation to apply to the Norowarejima Hospital Faction?:
While this is extremely common, the reason I’m applying is due to my high interest in the medical field alongside MedicalRP. I’ve always found medical topics and protocols engrossing, and something I’d enjoy dedicating myself to along with expanding my knowledge whilst writing. Also, since I’m pursuing a career in the medical field, I know I would commit myself fully and truly enjoy roleplay that ties into my genuine interests.



ROLE-SPECIFIC QUESTIONS & MEDICAL TRIVIA
[This section is dedicated to testing your knowledge on the medical field.]
-
What role would you prefer and why?:
(You can find the list of departments available in the informational section.)
I’d prefer the role of a Surgical Resident. In this role, I hope to develop my character while consistently honing my writing and roleplaying skills. I feel that the surgical department aligns closely with my character’s personal traits and was my original vision when creating her lore. However, I am also open to exploring other areas within the hospital if my training shows that I might be a better fit elsewhere. It ok.

Do you have any prior experience with MedicalRP?:
Unfortunately, I do not. I am well versed with the basics of medical procedures due to classes I am enrolled in out of character–but, nonetheless, I am still unfamiliar with roleplay regarding MedicalRP as of current. Though, I am familiar with writing detailed and larger actions in, what I presume, a similar environment–especially during a stressful(?) situation on the spot. Nevertheless, I am willing and open to learning about MedicalRP as much as possible!

Are you aware that with MedicalRP comes the possibility of encountering possibly triggering topics?:
I acknowledge, and understand this.

How well can you coordinate with a team during Roleplay?:
I’m actually someone who actually thrives in team coordination and environments the most out of anything, and am able to work in such settings during detailed roleplay. Due to past experiences on the team faction in similar servers, I’ve become superb at involving a team and working cordially alongside my mates, and succeeding.​



MEDICAL TRIVIA

(PHYSIOLOGY)
If someone is experiencing a reaction to food poisoning, what is the correct way to manage and treat the symptoms?:

Food poisoning is managed by first assessing the severity of the patient’s condition, including monitoring vital signs, hydration status, and potential complications. IV fluids are often administered to quickly restore fluids and electrolytes lost through vomiting or diarrhea, especially if the patient is unable to keep fluids down orally. Anti-nausea or anti-diarrheal medications could be administered as needed, though the use mostly depends on the suspected cause of the poisoning. Next should be supportive care, such as pain management and careful monitoring for signs of dehydration or sepsis, is essential. Lastly, ensure the patient rests in order to provide the body with the energy needed to fight off the infection.

What procedure would you follow if you witness a patient experiencing a seizure?:
The immediate priority is to create a safe environment by clearing the area of objects that could cause harm and ensuring the patient is not restrained. If possible, one should gently position the patient on their side to maintain an open airway and reduce the risk of choking. During the episode, it is important to monitor breathing, responsiveness, and the duration of the seizure. Once the seizure ends, the patient should be reassured, as confusion or distress is quite common, and assessed for any injuries possibly sustained. They can then be transferred to a safe location, such as a hospital bed, for ongoing observation. The incident should be documented, and findings reported to the medical team so that the underlying cause can be identified and appropriate treatment provided.

What procedure would you follow if a patient that has entered the hospital has a broken forearm?:
Firstly, medical staff should begin with assessing their overall condition, which includes checking vital signs and identifying any additional injuries. The affected arm should be supported and immobilized immediately, most likely with a splint or sling, to reduce pain and prevent further damage. Ice may be applied to minimize swelling, and pain relief can be provided as needed. An X-ray is typically ordered to confirm the fracture type and severity. Based on the results, treatment may involve applying a cast or brace for simple fractures, or scheduling surgical intervention if the bones are misaligned or the break is severe. Throughout this process, circulation, sensation, and movement in the affected limb should be carefully monitored to ensure there is no compromise. Finally, clear instructions for follow-up care, pain management, and activity restrictions are provided to support healing.

What procedure would you follow if a patient enters the hospital struggling to breathe?:
Quickly assess the severity of their condition by checking vital signs, oxygen saturation, and airway patency. The patient should be positioned upright to ease breathing, and supplemental oxygen should be administered as needed. If the airway is obstructed, hastily steps to clear it must be taken. Continuous monitoring of respiratory rate, effort, and oxygen levels is essential while medical staff attempt to investigate the underlying cause, such as asthma, an allergic reaction, infection, or another kind of respiratory condition. Depending on the findings, treatments may include inhaled bronchodilators, antibiotics, or a bit more advanced interventions like intubation and mechanical ventilation if the patient is unable to maintain adequate oxygenation. Throughout, the patient should be reassured and kept as calm as possible, since anxiety can greatly worsen breathing difficulty. After the patient is stabilized and reassured, their medical history should be obtained to help identify the underlying cause and guide the next steps in treatment.

(PSYCHIATRY)
A patient is experiencing a panic attack before an important procedure. How would you assist the patient?

Well, when a patient is experiencing a panic attack before a procedure, the priority is obviously to create a calm and supportive environment. The patient should be encouraged to focus on slow, steady breathing, such as guiding them to inhale deeply through the nose and exhale slowly through the mouth to help reduce hyperventilation and anxiety. Speaking in a calm, reassuring tone and offering grounding techniques, like asking them to focus on their surroundings or a specific object, can also help ease distress. It’s important to remain with the patient to provide reassurance and ensure they feel safe. Once the immediate symptoms subside, the healthcare team can explain the upcoming procedure in simple, clear terms, address any concerns, and answer questions to reduce fear and build confidence.

A belligerent patient in the middle of a psychotic episode stumbles into the emergency room. What should you do?
The first thing a medical staff must do is ensure the safety of both the patient and others in the area and call for assistance from security or trained staff if necessary. The patient should not be confronted aggressively–instead, a calm, non threatening approach should be used, maintaining a safe distance while speaking in a clear, reassuring, and respectful manner. Next, de-escalate the situation by reducing triggers, such as loud noises or bright lights, and limiting the number of people interacting with the patient. Once the patient is calmer and no longer an immediate threat to themselves or others, a medical and psychiatric evaluation can be performed to determine the underlying cause of the episode.

Which neurotransmitter is most commonly associated with depression
The neurotransmitter most commonly associated with depression is serotonin. Serotonin plays a heavy role in regulating mood, sleep, appetite, and many other functions. Imbalances or low levels of serotonin in the brain are strongly linked to symptoms of depression, which is why many antidepressant medications, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, work by increasing serotonin availability in the brain. Other neurotransmitters, like norepinephrine and dopamine, are also involved in mood regulation and can contribute to depressive symptoms when imbalanced.

What does the Acronym [PTSD] stand for, and what does it entail
PTSD stands for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. PTSD involves symptoms that may include flashbacks or intrusive memories of the event, nightmares, severe anxiety, avoidance of reminders of the trauma, negative changes in mood or thoughts, and hyperarousal. These symptoms can interfere with daily life, and treatment often includes therapy and sometimes medication to manage symptoms.​

THE INTERVIEW
[Congratulations! Your character scored an interview, please answer the following all in ICLY fashion]

The Hospital Director takes a seat at their desk, clasping their hands together with a calm gaze as they greet the individual. Their desk is clean and pristine, aside from a half-filled tea cup that continues to steam, giving the room a lovely aroma.
Oh, Kaho Ono. There’s a tranquil calm about her, a quiet confidence that radiates in gentle waves, as if the air itself bends around her presence. Perching lightly, the woman gently placed herself on the chair, her flaxen tresses fixing itself into the most flattering position with a posture so poised it seemed effortless. Hands folded lightly on her lap, fingers brushing against one another in a barely perceptible rhythm. A slight tilt of her head punctuates her attentiveness, alongside a serene yet almost disingenuous smile tugging at her lips, awaiting the first word to be pronounced into the air. Hm, the air around this girl seems almost... Too artificial?


“Good afternoon. I will be conducting your interview today. Could I have your full name as well as your age and date of birth, please?”
Steadily, the woman lifted her gaze to meet the interviewer’s, eyes clear and attentive, a small, gratifying smile crept onto her lips. Her voice was soft, yet measured–each word precise and graceful. “Good afternoon to you too. My name is Kaho Ono. I am 29 years old, and my date of birth is Feburary 15th, 1996.” Quite the young age for an aspiring surgeon, huh? She inclined her head ever so slightly, hands resting lightly on her lap, letting her composure and quiet confidence fill the space without needing any flourish.

“Very nice. Now, could you tell me a little more about yourself? Do you have a family, perhaps some motivations behind why you’d like to work here?”
“Why, of course.” A pause was made, inhaling. “I come from a family that has always valued hard work and responsibility, but I realized early on that I needed to follow a path that truly resonates with me.” There’s a softness in her posture now, a hint of vulnerability that makes her seem more human beneath the calm exterior. You could truly tell by her expression she wasn't lying. “Medicine… And particularly the surgical field, has always felt like the place where I can combine focus, care, and purpose. I want to be here not only to grow my skills, but to make a meaningful difference in people's lives.” Her insincere smile softens just a fraction, as if letting a piece of her inner drive and sincerity shine through without breaking her poised presence. Kaho's fingers lifted with deliberate grace, barely brushing a loose strand of hair that has escaped from its careful arrangement, tucking it gently behind her ear in a smooth, deliberate motion. “It’s something I’ve dreamed of for a long time, and I hope to bring dedication, thoughtfulness, and a sense of calm to this team.”

“Would you like us to refer to you by your surname or first name? As well as what honorifics you’d like.”
(San, Chan, Kun, Shi, etc.)
The blonde's fingers drift gently along the edge of the chair, tracing its surface with a soft touch. "Please refer to my by my first name, Kaho. I've spent quite the time in America and have gotten used to being referred to as that. As for honorifics... Kaho-San would be most appropriate. Thank you." Shifting her posture slightly, she thought of the director as kind for asking such a question.

The director nods in affirmation, now understanding the type of person the individual was and readjusts their posture, taking a sip of that aromatic green tea before continuing to speak.

“It is nice meeting you, then. Now, Let us move on to some more important questions regarding your role.”

As the director spoke, as soft, almost imperceptible hum escaped her lips- a gentle, whisper-like acknowledgement that conveys understanding. Kaho shifted her weight slightly, a barely noticeable adjustment that maintains her impeccable posture. With careful grace, she crosses one leg over the other, the motion smooth and controlled as she subtly leaned in, attentive and present.

“A patient arrives with a severe injury and is panicking uncontrollably. Walk me through how you would handle this situation.”
"First," Hastily, she begins, her voice soft but measured, carrying quiet authority. She's practiced these answers a thousand times over, so a question like this was quite facile to respond to. "I would approach the patient calmly, maintaining a composed demeanor to help ground them in the moment. I would then speak in a clear, reassuring tone, ensuring they know help is here and they are safe. Simultaneously, I would asses the severity of the injury quickly, prioritizing life threatening concerns while delegating tasks to any nearby staff if needed." A quick inhale. "Maintaining both empathy and precision is essential! The patient's panic must be met with calm guidance, while I act decisively to stabilize their condition."

“During an emergency, if any other hospital staff are unavailable however there is a patient in need, can we trust you to stabilize them or treat them to an acceptable degree?”
A falter in her calm demeanor arose, her eyes narrowing ever so slightly, the lids lowering just enough to convey a flicker of offense without breaking her graceful bearing. "Well, yes you can trust me to handle such a situation. I would follow proper protocols while using my training to stabilize the patient as effectively as I can until addition support arrives." Quietly coughing into her fist, Kaho regained her composure in due time.

“Could you run me through on the plethora of equipment you may find within your personal office if you are to be given the role of a resident? Just simply medical equipment.”
One again, she shifts subtly, uncrossing her legs with a deliberate grace before crossing her ankles neatly. Her eyes sweep slowly across the desk, taking in each item with quiet attentiveness- as if mentally cataloging details. "Certainly." A brief, quiet hum escaped her lips once more as the corners of her mouth twitched upwards. She quite liked the idea of a possible residency. "In my personal office as a resident, I would expect to have basic diagnostic tools such as a stethoscope, blood pressure cuff, thermometer, and pulse oximeter." It was clear she imagined the idea of having her own personal office beforehand- I mean, who wouldn't? "Additionally, there would likely be a reflex hammer, otoscope, ophthalmoscope, and possible a portable ECG monitor. For routine patient care and minor procedures, I would also anticipate having syringes, gloves, antiseptics, bandages, and other essential medical supplies readily available."
