<:| Attention NOVA units, this is the latest training guide regarding bi-weekly unit checkups. This guide will not only inform you on what positions are open to units performing the checkup, but how you should do so and what you should watch out for. If you have any comments or questions regarding this manifest, contact an 01 or High Command unit. ||::>
POSITIONS: The following are positions available to you when participating in a unit checkup session. The positions are grouped into stations for better organization and speed throughout the session. Note that these stations are able to be adapted in the scenario of less or more units than this guide is made for. This guide is for a standard session with three NOVA units carrying out the stations.
Station One: Station one includes reflex testing, respiratory testing, and hearing testing. The tools you require are as followed for these procedures: Stethoscope, Medical-Issued Headphones, Standard Reflex Hammer.
*Respiratory Test: Utilizing the stethoscope, place the metal piece over the unit's left breast. Instruct them to take in a deep breath, and then follow with a deep, exhale. Repeat the same process over the right breast. This allows you to listen and oberve their lung capacity. If the unit reports any difficulty breathing or is unable to make their chest rise, a problem has developed. If a problem does seem to have developed, consult your standard respiratory therapy training.
*Hearing Test: Adjust the setting on the headphones to 15 thousand Hertz. Have the unit place the headphones over their head, and instruct them to tell you when the beep you are about to send his heard. Once they have been made aware of this instruction, send the beep at 15kHertz. If they are able to hear it, they are clear to go. If not, send the beep once more. If problems arise, lower the frequency to 14 thousand Hertz, then to 13 thousand. If they are still unable to hear the beep, exchange the headphones with another pair and repeat. In the case that their hearing is truly the issue, contact a oh-one or higher for further evaluation.
*Reflex Testing: For reflex testing, make sure the unit is seated on the table. Take the hammer in your hand, and tap on their kneecaps with it. In the result that their reaction is delayed by more than a second, apply more force and repeat the action. In the case that the delayed reaction still occurs, issues with the connection to the brain may be at play.
Station Two: Station two includes blood testing, urine testing, and blood pressure testing. The tools you will require for these procedures are the following: Standard Testing Cup (Urine Testing), Two standard testing syringes, Two Standard Testing Vials (Blood Testing), and a Sphygmomanometer.
*Urine Testing: Hand the unit the standard testing cup. Instruct them to urinate in the cup (If they are unable to urinate, instruct them to drink water and await the urge). Allow the unit personal space when they do so; There's no need to stand around watching. Once they have completed, take the cup from the unit. They urine should be generally clear, although a slight yellowish colour is fine. If their urine seems to take on a dark colour or tone, instruct the unit to drink more liquids. Insert the cup into the Testing Machine, and begin the sequence. Anything abnormal will be detected and reported.
*Blood Testing: Prep the two blood drawing syringes and vials for the procedure. Drawing blood is easy enough to do; simply inject the syringe into a blood vein (Preferably one along the inside of either arm), and draw blood until it reaches the red line marked along the syringe. Once completed, pushes the needle through the cap along the testing vial, and inject the blood into it. Run both blood samples through the testing machine, and take note of anything abnormal it reports.
*Blood Pressure Testing: When conducting blood pressure testing, avoid using the arm you just recently drew blood from. Inform the patient that this procedure may cause a slight bit of pain of discomfot in their arm, at that it should subside shortly after you are completed. Place the strap from the sphygmomanometer around the arm, closing it securely around the arm. Note: Do not tighten the strap yourself. Only make sure it secure in its place. Once you have done so, initiate the device, and wait til it is complete. Once complete, read the value given on the device's screen. If the value is in between 130/80 and 90/60, they're blood pressure is good. If it is higher or lower contact a unit ranking oh-ne or higher, as they may be developing heart issues.
Station Three:Station Three conducts vision testing, but also is responsible for general assistance and the keeping of order inside the medbay during the checkups. For vision testing, you will require the use of the monitor and the vision program (NOVA Directory>Medical Programs>Vision Programs>Vision Testing, V3.47.C).
*Vision Testing: When conducting, start the vision testing program on the console near the cabinet. It will randomly generate five letters, and place them on the screen (You make them yourself; Just random letters is fine). Instruct the unit to cover one eye, and have them read two sets of letters. Have them switch eyes, and repeat the process. They have a possible of 20 points for each eye. Each letter is worth two points. (If they got one wrong out of the ten for the left eye, they'd have 18).
*General Assistance/Order Keeping: As the unit in charge of order and assistance, you make sure everything flows inside the medbay during the checkups. While you are responsible for vision testing as well, you are making sure they units stay orderly and are preped for the stations. When units enter, have them write their digits on a medical checkup form (I will be creating a seperate thread with these. It's time we get a medical database up, ye?). This form will be carried with them throughout their checkup session. Before they are sent into the first station, have them strip down to their underwear and remove any equipment. After they have gone through all the stations, retrieve their medical clipboard from them.
<:| This concludes the Unit Checkup guide. I hope to be seeing organized, professional and thorough checkups to be done bi-weekly and by a wide arange of units. I hope this guide helps you to know what we as a division are watching out for and what we expect you to be looking for during the checkups. ||::>
