LAYOUT INFORMATION:
So you found yourself in NOHoPE: a sizable three-story building that finds itself just outside the limits of the City. Due to being imPort-run at its onset, the hospital underwent a probationary period of monitoring by the state as it was initially deemed a potential experiment. It has long since been taken off its probation and now functions regularly, even serving to house non-imPort patients and employ non-imPort staff. Practices are above board and there is no ill-repute surrounding the hospital's methods, outside of the rumors and skepticism regarding its founders.
The founders of NOHoPE were Norman Osborn and Dr. Angelica Einstürzen, but neither holds authoritative say on the hospital currently. The acting President of the hospital is, currently, a non-imPort of good repute in the City's psychiatric community.
As mentioned, the building is three stories, residing on a large expanse of land with generous windows and green gardens surrounding. The interior is immaculate and clean and overwhelmingly white. The main floor holds the treatment rooms, a clinic, the recreation room, the library, the cafeteria, and the visitor center where patients are led when they have visitors, which has provided chairs and separates the patients from their visitors by glass. The upper floors house the patients' rooms,
which are modestly furnished; their amenities include a bed and a chair, and they are let out and led upon request if they need to use the bathroom. Each room has a door of thick, bulletproof glass and the doors require security badges and a staff ID code to be opened. Security at NOHoPE is quite advanced, making escape or forced entry incredibly difficult to anyone but the most skilled and most lucky of people.(SEE UPGRADES BELOW) On the bottom floor is the gym, treatment rooms for more severe cases -- surgery, ECT, etc. -- medical stores, and isolation rooms. There are a few barred rooms that no one seems to have entry access to, but there is likely nothing inside.MEDICATION & POWER NULLIFICATION:
Upon admission to NOHoPE, as it is a hospital designed with imPort patients in mind, all patients have their abilities nullified while in its walls. This is achieved partially through medication, partially through technology that runs through the building. Similarly, visitors with offensive abilities will find their powers nullified while inside NOHoPE, as the technology in the building focuses on offensive abilities while the medications are tailored more toward the defensive/passive powers. See further security information below.
SECURITY UPDATES (6/14/13)
All vital security coding has been converted to Shi’ar to prevent hacking. It will only revert in the case that Danger should be ported out, or if she fails to log in for a certain period of time.
Additional wing specifically for high-risk patients or escaped patients that have been recovered:
Cells in this wing include the following features:
- Immovable concrete furniture, including a poured concrete bed, desk, and stool.
- A combined toilet, sink, and water unit.
- Showers regulated by timers.
- A single, narrow window that does not exceed five inches in width, with a bullet-proof glass pane.
Reference:http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0b/ADX.CELL.DESIGN.jpg
All cells, including cells for high-risk patients, are outfitted with physiological monitors that record data including patient’s temperature, eating habits, hygienic habits, patterns of movement, urine/fecal content, sleeping patterns, respirations, et cetera. The overarching system is alerted if the patient shows symptoms of illness or fails to take their medications. The steel doors for each cell lock automatically and can only be opened by fingerprint scan and voice-activated password. These passwords (along with all passwords used in the facility) are changed at random intervals, and every time a door is opened, it is recorded by the system. Windows in the cell are positioned and designed so that only the sky is visible, which helps prevent prisoners from knowing precisely where they are located inside the facility relative to the outside world. If pipes are blocked or the wall is damaged, a security alert is triggered immediately.
Virtually every inch of the asylum is monitored by various devices, including cameras and motion sensors. Cameras provide both traditional and thermal views, in order to prevent patients and intruders from hiding out of view. These cameras are operated by a host of over fifty computer terminals, which are housed in a building separate from the patient wards, and operate 24/7, recording live. Security also includes pressure pads and laser beams. Additionally, patients are required to wear a tracking device on their ankles upon admittance. These tracking devices broadcast their location continuously and will alert Danger’s overarching security system immediately if the signal stops, is tampered with, or ceases to be in skin contact with the patient.
If any of the above security features indicate that a patient is not accounted for or may be attempting to escape, it causes a lockdown of the patient’s entire ward. Lockdowns can be lifted only by combining retinal scans, fingerprint scans, and voice-activated passwords from two hospital employees with the appropriate level of access. During lockdown, doors will not respond to attempts to open them. Forcefields are activated, which divide the halls and wards into smaller compartments. These forcefields are generated by Shi’ar technology and are more or less impenetrable. If touched, they can also cause numbness, which ranges from a mild tingling with brief contact to paralysis with prolonged or forceful contact.
Visitors are subject to a facial scan and are tracked throughout the facility. Should cameras ever register a face that is not recognized by the facial recognition software, the system is immediately alerted and lockdown is also activated.
In addition to human employees, the facility is guarded by two types of mechanical droids: maintenance units and guard units. Both types run programs designed by Danger herself. Maintenance units are primarily janitorial, but also are capable of monitoring the facility for abnormalities and have a weak stun function that can be activated if the unit itself, a patient, or a hospital employee is in danger.
Guard units have a higher level of function. They are vaguely humanoid in their appearance, with the exception of their heads which lack faces and resemble a helmet with a smooth front. They are programmed to primarily protect patients and employees; however, they will respond aggressively to breeches in protocol, particularly when patients attempt to escape or are violent towards others or themselves. They will not kill, but will use force to restrain and contain, if necessary. They are also equipped to sedate. These units patrol the grounds night and day and run on independent power sources. All mechanical units are automated and run based on protocol, but can be given specific orders, shut down, or overridden by voice-activated passwords if given by employees with sufficient clearance.
Medical and treatment technology is similarly protected by biological scanners and voice-activated passwords. Any misuse, failure to provide the appropriate passwords, or tampering causes the equipment to lock itself.
Remote-control access of doors and other systems, including surveillance, can utilized via the main control room, which is primarily only accessible by the warden, and smaller, more specialized control rooms designated in each wing.
