Operating Table

Description
The Operating Table is a Treatment machine, used only in the Surgery by a Doctor and a Nurse to cure patients with a multitude of illnesses. It is first made available in Smogley.

Appearance
The Operating Table consists of four parts; the reclining bed the patient lies upon, which has a large circular base and teal bedding; two dark grey wheeled trolleys with teal surfaces each bearing instruments (one with a white tray attached to the side); and finally, a large array of lights which is mounted on a large structure of white metal beams, and is articulated so as to be easily directed even during the operation.

Function
The Operating Table is a required item for Surgery to function. Upon entering the room for their shift, the surgeon and nurse will each enter the Screen in order to change into their surgical scrubs, followed by a trip to the Medical Sink in order to perfect their hygiene ratings. With this process complete, the Surgery is ready for operating.

The patient will likewise use the Screen to change into a hospital gown, then proceed to the Operating Table and climb under the covers. The doctor and nurse will take their positions on either side of the table, each with their own tray of instruments, and the Doctor will perform the operation. This will generally involve cutting through the covers into the patient, in order to extract such items as an alarm clock and a rubber duck. Once these have been examined and re-inserted in their rightful place, the operation is considered complete. The patient will return to the screen to change back into their normal clothes, their Treatment complete.

Room
