| | Healer & Care Station Just outside the Ministry Daycare, there is a separate area that has been set up for the use of our healers hired by the Ministry. It's a gleaming room of cleanliness with white floors and walls, dark wooden furniture, and silver accents. Everything has been sanitized and disinfected...and most of the equipment is new. It has all been put in place for the safety and welfare of the children and all Ministry personnel. Bumps and bruises? Scraped knees? Upset tummies? We deal with it all here! Not a child? No worries! All employees are welcomed to come and be seen. Adult tummy aches and bruises are just as important to us as well as providing each employee with a annual check-up.
While the function of this station is set for primarily low grade injuries, the cherry red candlestick telephone has a direct link to St. Mungo's where healers are on-call for more serious and life threatening injuries.

| Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight A silvery feline shape streaked into the area set aside for the healers, and leapt on to one of the nearby surfaces as soon as it found a recipient for its message. A large, ridiculously fluffy cat spoke with the voice of the Magical Law Enforcement department head. "Healer required in the Level Three break room, as soon as possible." And again, in case it was missed. "Level Three break room, as soon as possible." With that, the patronus faded out of sight.

After carrying his latest toddler patient back to Gaston's care and supervision, River went back to the Healer's station to check and update the records of all the patients he'd admitted. From burns, bumps, cramps, sprained wrists due to overly dramatic wand waving (seriously, what are these people up to, these days??) to the more usual headaches and indigestion. It was actually funny to see adults feigning these symptoms, so they get an excuse to use the relaxation pods beyond their lunch breaks.
Sighing and shaking his head in amusement, River quietly reviewed all the charts before setting them back in the records room. For all of their sakes, he hoped the day would remain uneventful.

Laurel usually had good health so it wasn't often that she had a need to visit the ministry healers. Today though she had her annual check up appointment which by coincidence saved her the trouble of making an appoint to have someone diagnose the many irritating and itchy spots she had all over her body. Laurel had a feeling that it was more likely a disease she had attracted from her kids than from working on level 9, but she wanted to hear it from a healer.
Taking the lift up from level 9 Laurel soon stepped out on the atrium level and headed into the Healer & Care station to wait for her appointment. The blond unspeakable took the time to look around while she awaited her turn.

The blond unspeakable took the time to look around while she awaited her turn. From the Healer Station's record room, River heard the door open from where he stood, forcing him to step up his pace in organizing the files. As he made his way outside to check on the new arrival, he absent-mindedly reached out for the hand sanitizer depositor, spraying his hands with a mild cleaning solution. "Laurel?" a query with a smile, the Healer stood in front of her former schoolmate and Hogwarts colleague, as he rubbed his hands dry. "You're not one to ask for an excuse slip to spend a few hours in a relaxation pod, so my guess is, you're here for your annual checkup, correct?" extending a hand towards the general direction of the records room, River accio-ed Laurel's records towards him, almost smacking his fellow healer in the face as he did so. Ehh, oops?

Ehh, oops? Laurel had busied herself with reading a woman's magazine to pass the time while she waited for the healer. She was reading a test on new handbag's when she heared a familiar voice call out her name. Looking up Laurel said slightly bewildered, but glad as she closed and put the magazine back on the stand. "Hi River, I didn't know you worked here now?"
She had heard a rumour, but know she knew it was true. Nodding she affirmed to him quietly. "Yes, I'm here for my annual checkup, but I also have lots of itchy red spots all over my body that I hoped you could take a look at?" That River was going to give her a check up felt comforting considering that they were former colleagues and she knew she could trust him.

That River was going to give her a check up felt comforting considering that they were former colleagues and she knew she could trust him. "Been working here for quite some time now, actually," River replied with a slight tilt of his head. Aside from the fact that Laurel wasn't one of his regular patients in the Ministry, he too had been busy teaching Healer Studies in the university, and dropping by St. Mungo's for his local patients. "But likewise, it's good to see you again." it was always great to see familiar faces around the Ministry. It made the place less hostile.
Taking a quick glance at her chart which was now in his hands, River gave her a nod of understanding as she led her away into one of the empty beds, drawing the curtain for some privacy. "Please, take a seat." he said, gesturing at the bed as he sat on the healer's stool. "Alright, I don't see anything amiss on your chart," he said as he magically propped her medical record on his knee. "There are a couple of things that could trigger skin allergies, but I'd like to know when you first noticed this? And if it is reoccurring?" information on time was very important to him, as this narrowed down his list of culprits. River's sure Laurel doesn't have all day to go through everything on that list.

"It's good to see you too." Laurel murmured back in response. Should she feel guilty that she hadn't come and seen River since he started working for the ministry? She chose not to, since she until recently didn't know he know was employed in the Atrium. Following River's directions Laurel soon found herself sitting down on one of empty beds in the healer station. To hear that her chart was in order was nice to hear, it meant that she could trust in the healers professionality and not just River.
Looking down at her hands that had the red spots all over that stood out like lampposts against her pale skin Laurel said when she raised her gaze to meet Rivers. "I first noticed a few red spots about a week ago and since then they have multiplied and have branched out over my skin. First they were just on my hands and feet." She paused here briefly to show him her hands. "I usually don't have any skin allergies so these aren't reoccuring. I treat my skin with care and use healer approved ointments and lotions."

She paused here briefly to show him her hands. "I usually don't have any skin allergies so these aren't reoccuring. I treat my skin with care and use healer approved ointments and lotions." River took the time to examine her hands and feet with just his eyes, noting the specifics of her rash. They were red, and itchy, but not swollen and puss -filled. Nodding, he took a pair of disposable gloves from one of the cabinets behind him, and mentally took note of the time of appearance, and that Laurel has no food allergies. "Excuse me," he said, as he reached out with his gloved hands, and began to feel her neck and just below her ears for any bumps. "You don't have fever, which is good, but your glands are a bit enlarged. That can only mean that your body is fighting an infection." he said as he moved on to gently pull down her chin, and took a peek inside her mouth. "Nothing is swollen, no sores..." at least for now.
As it is, River was able to deduce two possible causes for Laurel's medical case. "Let's start first at home. Do you have kids you go home to? Or maybe, pets?" he asked as he removed his gloves and vanished it by crumpling it in his hands and reached for the hand sanitizer once more and began to look for anti-itch creams and ointments in one of the drawers.

Or maybe, pets?" he asked as he removed his gloves and vanished it by crumpling it in his hands and reached for the hand sanitizer once more and began to look for anti-itch creams and ointments in one of the drawers. Laurel was a middle aged woman who had just entered the 40's. In a few months she'd be 41 years old which was a distinguished age and made her feel old. That her rash spots weren't pus-filled or swollen was probably more luck than anything. Laurel sat very still when River performed his inspection of her neck and ears. At least he was being thorough. Raising a brow at his comment she asked "An infection? Could what I have be contagious?" She didn't want to give Aaron or the kids any sickness. No sores was a plus right?
Nodding Laurel affirmed. "I go home to both pets and children. I have 4 children in the age range of 3-10 and well two kneazles, two pygmy puffs and an owl." It was a full house. That River kept cleaning his hands was a bit worrying. Was what she had so serious?

That River kept cleaning his hands was a bit worrying. Was what she had so serious? Nodding his head, River double-checked the ointments and creams in his hands before turning back to Laurel. "Since you are not allergic to anything, the next possible answer is that you got infected by someone or something. Also, your rashes are specific to your hands and feet," he continued, as he procured a cotton swab from the same drawer, applied a bit of ointment on it, and began to apply it on Laurel's right hand. "At least you don't have any sores inside your mouth, so I'm guessing it's only a mild case." he said, as he busied himself with the medication. "You work in Level 9. Have you been in contact with experimental potions lately?" he asked, now working on Laurel's other hand. "I see. And none of your children have these symptoms? Fever, rashes, loss of appetite?" the thing with treating patients was he had to be very thorough and do some investigation as well. Merlin knows if her family was infected too, and Laurel was not even aware. It was River's job to give the correct advice, if his initial suspicion was correct.

Sometime between the Healer & Care Station closing for the day and opening the next, the supplies were rearranged. Instead of all the Pepper Up Potion being grouped together, it's intermingled with Cough Potion and a container of tea. Did someone have an accident? The Invigoration Draught is missing, with burn paste sitting in its place on the shelf.
Either someone failed to do inventory correctly, or potions have gone missing...
