LtJG Gila Sadar - No Excuses I Don't Know (or Haven't Used)
Gila Sadar
((Primary Sickbay - Deck 7, USS Artemis-A))
No way to start a day like a physical examination of a newly-boarded Ensign. Get the first one in, and patients seemed to start just dropping by on their own. Taking that first step, however, was sometimes difficult for some. ‘I don’t have time’ or ‘I don’t need it - I just got a check-up at the Academy’ were just some of the numerous excuses she’d heard in the past year, and while she empathized with the need to avoid mandated health inspections, part of her duties was to ensure that others were more reasonable than she in adhering to these rules.
Sadar: I’ve read over your latest medical notes from the Academy, but as I’m sure we can both agree, a fair deal has occurred since your graduation. ::nervous smile:: Any medical concerns before we begin?
Kel: Well, I had a few memory lapses during the last mission. But that could just be a….Q thing. But asides from that nothing comes to mind
Sadar: Hmm... ::prepares her tricorder:: We’ve heard similar concerns from other crew members, so it’s certainly worth looking into. A neurological check-up seems in order.
The Vulcan/Bajoran Ensign nodded in response to her statement, clearly intent on being a pliant patient.
Wondrous.
Kel: Well, aside from that, no obvious concerns. Should we start the regular check up now?
Sadar: Of course.
((OOC: If there’s anything you want Gila to find during the check-up, feel free to throw me a DOOC mail. My mail is after my name at the top of this Sim.))
Gila began running the usual tests, and while she felt no obligation to engage in smalltalk - she’d endured multiple corrections by friends in the academy about the ‘illogical aspect of requiring smalltalk during medical appointments’ - she still had some relevant questions to fill the silence.
Sadar: I’ve read the rough reports on what occurred to the various crew members during CloQ’s mischief, but apparently, all injuries suffered during the mission were reverted upon our safe return to our timeline.
Kel: Response
Sadar: Because it might not be completely illogical that recollections of any incidents during the temporal displacements might return to bestow phantom pains or, as you yourself said, memory lapses. ::nod:: So if you start experiencing similar things, I recommend alerting medical personnel.
Kel: Response
Gila sighed at that thought.
Sadar: Unfortunately, we have very little concrete evidence to form substantiated hypotheses regarding the effect of Q encounters on the well-being of regular minds.
Kel: Response
