This role is functionally identical to Medical Doctor. The only difference is that it is meant for players new to the Medical department similar to the Technical Assistant and Security Cadet roles. Make sure to listen to your superiors, primarily the Chief Medical Officer, but also the more experienced Medical Doctors. There's a reason why you're the intern and not them.

Learning experience

As a medical intern, your primary goal is to listen and follow your assigned trainer at all times. You will learn the basis on how to treat people, how to use chemicals, and how to handle bodies and prioritize patients. Usually you'll be assigned to a medical doctor to gain experience, though if you're lucky you might be able to be trained by the Chief Medical Officer themselves. The are several restrictions to prevent accidental (or intentional) malpractice as a medical intern, which are:

  • They can't use chemicals without supervision
  • They must stay with their assigned trainer
  • They cannot perform elective surgeries for obvious reasons
  • They can be relegated the duties of a medical doctor in emergencies.
