== Ens Katherine 'Kat' Manx ==
[Beinn to Sickbay, prepare for incoming emergency medical transport to trauma biobed. Extreme internal damage, will require artificial support and potential stasis for starbase assistance due to severity.]
Kat froze as she received Beinn's urgent message. Although the wolf-like creature made her uneasy, this was not her immediate worry. Given the dire report and her medical expertise, injuries like these offered extremely slim chances of survival, even if they managed to reach a Starbase in time. Plus, there was the potential for more patients needing attention.
We may need to triage, depending on how many others they send. While I strive to provide the best care for every patient, our resources are limited; we don't have the facilities of a Vesta or Odyssey class vessel. Let's handle it as it comes.
Determined not to waste any time, Kat headed briskly to the trauma biobed. Expecting minimal downtime, she decided it was wise to send an acknowledgment. As she set up at the medical station, she also began preparing transport to the morgue holding area. Though a grim task, freeing the biobed might be necessary if saving the patient proved impossible. A containment field could preserve them until extensive treatment was available at a Starbase; however, Kat wouldn't be surprised if the morgue slot had to serve its intended purpose. She tapped her commbadge over her medical coat.
“Sickbay acknowledges. Standing by.”
Despite her discomfort with Beinn, Kat kept her tone neutral and professional. She embraced her feline heritage but didn't let it define her workplace demeanor. Still, certain traits were hard to ignore. If she'd grown up among other Caitians on Cait, she might feel more comfortable around a Child of San-Tarah. She suspected other crewmembers shared similar sentiments.
== Patient welcome. Please make sure all blood avoids staining the carpet. Unless, of course, you'd like a visit from the Friendly Neighborhood Janitor. He just got the last batch out of the carpet. ==
