Sickbay

The attending doctor in sickbay is Dr. Cottle, but there are lab coat-wearing specialists and medics who are sometimes present in the Weight Room and sickbay to render aid (Litmus).

The sickbay also seems to have the equipment of a basic small hospital; beds, stretchers, IV's, etc. The spartan appearance of the sickbay is reminiscent of a Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (MASH) unit.

Major characters who have spent time in sickbay are:

• Cally -- gunshot wound in "Bastille Day"
• President Laura Roslin -- breast exam and inquiry about available medication in "Act of Contrition"
• Starbuck -- broken knee from "You Can't Go Home Again" to "Six Degrees of Separation"
• Boomer -- for gunshot wound in the cheek from "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I"
• William Adama -- after the attempt on his life by Sharon Valerii from "Scattered" to "Resistance"
• Gaius Baltar -- A process similiar to a Magnetic Resonance Imaging scan of his brain, to determine whether or not his "internal" Number Six was a chip in "Home, Part II"

According to Lee Adama, the sickbay is also designed as a disaster shelter in the event of a ship catastrophe (Valley of Darkness).
