[SUBMITTED] Buffing Up Our Hospitals

[title] Buffing Up Hospitals

[validity] Nation must have Nudism policy active (banning clothing)

[desc] A multidisciplinary mob of healthcare professionals has swarmed into your office in regards to the ban on clothing and how it's affecting the healthcare system in @@NAME@@.

[Option 1] Out-of-breath pharmacist Merry Penem, PharmD is the first to speak up after catching his breath, "I can't do it anymore, @@LEADER@@. I get that wearing clothing is illegal, but I cannot work like this anymore. I had a patient come in looking to get their eczema prescription compounded. Do you know what it was? Coal tar ointment. You ever compound with coal tar, @@LEADER@@? If you get it on your skin or clothing, it doesn't come out. I repeat, IT DOESN'T. COME. OUT. I slept on the couch for MONTHS. Just let some of us wear clothes, that's all. That's all, @@LEADER@@." Merry then proceeds to curl up into a ball amidst his mental breakdown.

[Option 2] Comforting Dr. Penem is world-renowned cardiologist DJ Oxen, MD. "Can't you see the effect that this ban on clothing has on us, @@LEADER@@? To say that the absence of clothing has a negative impact on our job performance is nothing compared to the negative impact it has on our patients outcomes. For example, it is utterly impossible to properly focus on saving a patients life during a code when you are jam-packed in a tight hospital room with 15-20 other naked individuals. Don't even get me started on treating patients suffering from Clostridium difficile colitis. Reverse the ban on clothing, @@LEADER@@, for our patients sake."

[Option 3] Following Dr. Oxen is Roby Tussin, RN. "Okay, so while reversing the ban on clothing might have that hunk Dr. DJ looking DJ-Fab, the problem isn't as bad as you might think. Sure the rooms can get cramped whenever someone is coding, but that doesn't mean that we can let our dangly bits distract us when we're cheek-to-cheek saving lives! If anything, it just means that we need more funding for our hospitals so we can have larger patient rooms. In fact, if you let me use your pen I can help you write up the spending bill right now!"

Due to the fact that ive only drafted one issue on this forum, my experience is quite limited. But, I do have some feedback for you.

First off, option 1 REALLY gave me a good laugh. However, I may have noticed something.

Do you know what it was for? Coal tar ointment to be compounded.

I believe that this group of sentences would flow better if, following “Do you know what it was for?” The response is just “Coal tar ointment.” I believe that is how you intended to write that particular part, in any case.

Very humourous so far.

You are entirely right! I'll fix that wording right now. Thanks for the feedback! And looking forward to more of your drafts too!

I agree with Candensia here, but maybe add a full stop after 'IT'? That would not only flow better and would also add more humour to the option too. Would you look forward to more of my drafts too? (No jealousy) Sorry for being so mean to you earlier.

I thought about it and even had it there initially. I found though that saying it out-loud, that not having the full stop after IT added freneticism and tension to the way that they were speaking."IT (pause) DOESNT (pause) COME (pause) OUT" sounds very different from "IT DOESNT (pause) COME (pause) OUT". The first one is very structured whereas the second one sounds more like someone who is having a mental breakdown. At least, that's what it sounds like to me!

And I have been keeping an eye on yours! Typically most of my points get brought up by others before I get a chance to do so so I stay quiet in that regard. I'll still keep an eye out though because you asked. And no problem.

I think there should be a comma after breath in option 1.

Also, any chance maybe you should come up with a funny particular health concern in the description?

If I'm using out of breath as a descriptor it would not need a comma there.

Also the general idea behind the description isn't something that a single health concern is going to dictate.

If you're climbing on top of a morbidly obese patient to perform CPR because the patient is crashing after being involved in a car accident, it's going to be problematic if the staff is nude.

If a patient currently has a highly infectious disease that is spread by body fluids, treating them while in the buff is going to be problematic.

From a pure sterility standpoint, just being naked in a room while compounding is going to introduce particulates and other contaminants into the environment just because of dust, hair, and dead skin cells that are brushed off of our bodies through normal mechanical movements.

So a single "funny" health concern isn't going to form the crux of the issue.

Besides, I already mentioned C.diff .

I'm not really sure that's necessary to be honest. This isn't an issue focusing on anyone who has to deal with nudity, but more specifically, this issue is focusing on how the health care system has many places where nudity can cause immense problems.

If this was an issue where anyone could complain about the lack of clothing, sure. But that's not the case here.
