[It's been a little while network, hello. Here's your resident licensed medical professional, looking fairly tidy still if a little shaggier than he's used to. A quiet clearing of his throat, and he begins.]

Ah, hello. This is Dr. Simon Tam, recently of the Hadriel clinic. I know we've had an...eventful past month or so, here in the city, which is why I'm making this broadcast. You all know, or should know, that the clinic staff is here to assist you as best we can with any injuries or illnesses you might face. However, it isn't always feasible for you to come to us, or for us to come to you. The situation may be too urgent, there may be dangers between here and there that can't be avoided. [Like zombies, or fire-breathing dragons.] This is largely part of why we'd like to start offering a rotating course of first aid and medical care courses again, as Doctor Banner has done previously. During these courses, myself, along with he and other trained clinic staff, will teach you the basics you need to survive, if the worst happens. Death may not be an entirely permanent situation here, but that's no reason to seek it out.

If you're interested, please come by the clinic tomorrow for our first course. Basic information, the importance of cleanliness, caring for minor scrapes and cuts, and how to assemble a small home first aid kit. I sincerely hope most of you won't need it.

[Clinic staff, and those who come by the clinic, may note a small note posted on the wall of the front room. Simon is spending a good portion of the day out there himself with one of his large medical journals, clearly still reading, cross-referencing, and planning. After all, it's not like they get much down time around here.]

[Any good Mom Friend worth her salt should know first aid, right? Especially in a place like this, with danger lurking around every corner. Sam turns up at the clinic the day after Simon's announcement, ready to learn. She pauses to read the posted note.]

You should probably have a class on monster bites, too - you know, which ones are infectious, which ones are just gross. That kind of thing.

You could probably ask people here, too.

[She half-smiles, crossing her arms over her chest as she steps into the room.]

I can tell you for sure that wendigo bites aren't infectious, though. Just painful and gross. [And she adds, almost an afterthought:] My friend was bitten by one.
