This page probably needs to be moved.
- This is about healthcare in the new version, for the skill see Health care (skill).
Hospitals are a zone designated via the zone menu. Hospitals use any beds, tables, traction benches, and boxes/bags that are within these zones. You may also alter how much thread, cloth, splints, crutches, powder for casts, buckets, and soap hospitals use.
In the new version of Dwarf Fortress, doctors are dwarves assigned to any of the five medical labors; dressing wounds, diagnosis, surgery, setting bones, and suturing. All doctors in the fortress operate under the instruction of the Chief Medical Dwarf, one of the new appointed nobles, and presumably only perform medicine on a dwarf after treatment has been prescribed by a diagnostician.
The old system of undesignated beds being used for healthcare has been scrapped; instead, hospital beds are those explicitly included in a hospital zone.
A traction bench is used by a doctor in a hospital zone to immobilize a dwarf that has sustained complex or overlapping fractures.
It is constructed in the Mechanic's workshop, and requires a table, a mechanism and a rope to construct.
