Traction Bed

Appearance
The Traction Bed is surrounded by a large rectangular rails, from which hang blue curtains that can close around it entirely. The bed itself is white-framed, and has light blue bedding. At each end, a pole is mounted, holding up the traction mechanism, which consists of a hoist for each limb, using a pulley system to keep them in place, and a triangular handle on a chain to allow patients in and out of the bed.

At the foot of the bed is a console for controlling these, with four handles, two mounted into throttle-like mechanisms, and two on the sides mounted on cranks. There is also a pair of buttons in green and red.

Function
The Traction Bed is required for the Fracture Ward to function. Patients will need the required casts and bandages before using it, and so will require a trip to the Plaster Caster to have these fitted if they do not arrive with them already in place. They will be guided into the Traction Bed by a Nurse, who will use the controls to elevate their injured limbs, and monitor them for the duration of their stay. After they have reached sufficient progress, the nurse will release them from the Traction Bed so that they may visit the Plaster Caster to have their treatment completed.

Staff
1-5 will be required to run the Fracture Ward, and by extension the Traction Bed.
