Ward



The Ward is unlocked during the tutorial section of Hogsport and is the first room to which the player will gain access that provides both diagnosis and treatment. It works as an important curing facility, treating a large range of illnesses in every hospital. It is run by 1-5 nurses, whose efficiency can be increased with Ward Management skills.

Function
The Ward can be use to both diagnose and cure patients. If a patient is diagnosed with an illness that is cured in the Ward, they must still change into their regular clothes and leave the Ward, even if they are to return immediately for treatment. Multiple beds and screens can be used in a ward to accommodate larger numbers of patients, and in the room inspector, more nurses can be added, up to a total of five.

Upon entering the room, patients must first enter a screen to change into a hospital gown before waiting beside an open bed. A nurse must move to the foot of the bed before the patient lies down. While lying in bed, the patient will toss and turn while the nurse attends to other business in the Ward. The nurse will occasionally move to the foot of the bed to check the patient's charts. Once diagnosis or treatment is completed, the patient will sit up in the bed and wait for the nurse to allow them up. The patient then leaves the room, changing back into their clothes if needed.

Appearance
A pair of double doors with windows lead into this room. Despite being double doors, only one person can pass through them at the same time. The walls are tri-colored, with the bottom half being a solid purplish-blue and the upper half being a lavender with white wavy lines printed over it, separated by white crown molding. White trim lines the top of the walls along with blue and white speckled base boards. The floor is a checkerboard pattern of white and grey tiles.
