Paramedic Layne Ishay is a medic serving on Galactica.
One of the many resource shortfalls of Galactica's ongoing logistical nightmare is a shortage of medical personnel. Doctor Cottle is the only trained physician on board, supplemented by a handful of medics. As a result, Ishay has been required to step up to perform medical procedures she wouldn't normally be expected to perform.
Immediately after the attempted assassination of commanding officer William Adama by Sharon "Boomer" Valerii, and with the absence of Doctor Cottle from Galactica during her isolation from the rest of the Fleet, Commander Adama's life is left in the hands of Galactica's paramedics.
After it becomes clear that no other aid is arriving, and that the commander would be lost without immediate action, Colonel Tigh orders Ishay to operate on Adama (Scattered). Despite never having performed an operation in her life, Ishay's emergency thoracic surgery stabilizes Adama's condition until Doctor Cottle returns, who, with Ishay's assistance, stops the commander's internal bleeding (Fragged).
Ishay later assists Dr. Cottle in delivering Caprica-Valerii's Cylon-human hybrid baby, Hera, by emergency surgery (Downloaded).
After Baltar's capture on the algae planet, she assists Doctor Cottle in his interrogation (Taking a Break From All Your Worries).
Ishay speaks with an accent similar to that which Gaius Baltar affects, and which he identifies as the speech of Caprica (Dirty Hands). Other Capricans, however, do not share this accent (See "Language in the Twelve Colonies" for more information).
Notes
- Kerry Norton is the wife of actor Jamie Bamber (Lee Adama). Her character's "accent" is, of course, that of United Kingdom citizens. Her husband is also British, but puts on an American accent when portraying Lee Adama.
- In a deleted scene, Ishay delivers the news of Hera's alleged death to D'anna Biers, who plotted with Gina and Gaius Baltar to abduct the baby from Galactica.
