Category:Desnind Location Order of the Adunih Outpost
Information
It is only of late that the Order of the Adunih has really focused on improving their relations with the people of Desnind. Their customary way of handling patients has struggled to cope with local traditions. Many locals prefer the seek the healers at the Medicine House rather than trying the more modern methods of the Order.
To combat the stigma that the Order does not have a place in the city of trees, the members have seen to the construction of a new outpost within the canopy. A substantial effort is being made by the Order to make peace with the locals so they can better serve their medical needs. The new Outpost is located high in the trees of Desnind, and boasts architecture that is a blend of southern and northern styles. There are lovely carvings of trees intertwining on the front of the building, along with ivy growing along either side of the door.
There are in total two buildings, the first is the clinic itself where patients are admitted and examined. There is a small admission area with a simple wooden desk where patients and family members can speak to an Assistant Physician who will write down their information. There are also a few wooden benches along the walls across from the desk that serve as a waiting area. Potted plants are also arrayed about the space to make it more comfortable and inviting.
There is a curtained off threshold that leads into the exam area with a central hall. There are eight exam rooms, each are tidy little spaces with a table for the patient and a desk and chair for the attending physician. If it is decided that a patient needs to be admitted they will be transferred from this room to the second building that contains the ward.
At the back of the exam area is a break room for the staff members where they can rest or have a meal when needed.
The second structure can be reached by taking a right at the end of the hall that leads through the exam area. There is a swinging bridge that leads outdoors to the second building that appears much like the first, although it is slightly smaller. Inside is a large central room where patients are moved too if they need to stay at the Outpost overnight or longer. This is the ward. There are a plethora of beds with clean linens and pillows. Beside each bed is a small table with a glow lamp along with books for the patients to read and enjoy.
From the ward there are two other rooms at the back of the building. On the right is a very simplistic operating room where everything is kept impeccably clean. There is a polished wooden table at the center for surgery and several glow lantern arrayed around the room. There is also a skylight to allow more illumination into the chamber. The room of the left of the ward serves as a pharmacy where the Order makes and stores their medicines. Inside the walls are lined with cabinets and there are countertops equipped with mortar and pestles and delicate sets of scales.
