Medical Supply Storage

Medical Replication Units can't always produce certain types of medicines and materials needed by a Sickbay, nor can they produce quantities needed in particular epidemic/pandemic situations. Therefore, these materials must be stored for usage at a moment's notice. That is why vessels and stations are equipped with Medical Supply Storage units. These storage bays are housed near a ship's sickbay or station's Infirmary and are carefully secured and inventoried by medical staff. Medical supplies are kept under constant environmental monitoring to ensure they do not perish. Typically a decent supply of general-purpose medications--such as cordrazine and rexlin---is kept on hand, as are innoculation kits to deal with certain planet-wide outbreaks. Equipment that isn't being readily used may also be stored in these units.

Med-kits, blankets, emergency shelters, and food supplements are just some of the usual items that are stockpiled in these areas.
