Similar to the Research Thread, only dealing with settings in particular...
So, my story has changed its setting to a... questionable "rehabilitation center" that actually makes the patients into supersoldiers at night... think River and the Academy from Firefly.
Right now, I just need some help on how a normal treatment center would be set up. I've been doing some reading, but there's not a lot of books I can get my hands on.

A rehabilitation centre would usually be quite big, from what I've heard. I'll list the possible buildings you'd need below; and a map of a rehabilitation centre.
-> Administration/Admin.
- Records are kept here (for both inpatients and outpatients).
- By records, I mean when the patient entered, what he/she was diagnosed with before they arrived, how often he/she was treated and what treatment was used, where he/she would sign in and out if they went on outings, etc.
-> Main Treatment Block
- Containing the medicine room (I think) which stores all medication patients may need.
- Therapy rooms with big comfy sofas, etc.
- Possibly a drama room(s) that has a big circle of chairs and maybe a few props.
- The inpatients' bedrooms and bathrooms.
- Possibly a classroom or two.
- Rooms for big groups aiming at different psychological problems (Alcoholics Anonymous, etc.).
- The canteen for both patients and staff.
- The chapel.
-> Staff Block
- Training rooms.
- Resouce rooms (paper, staples, etc.).
-> Recreation
- Pool tables
- Dartboards
- Basically, it's where the patients go to relax and interact with others.
- Sports ground (possibly).

Thank you so much.  I might just steal that map... What about how the inpatients are organized? How is that set up? I'm assuming age would determine what floor/group the inpatients are in, but are there any other factors? What would a good staff-to-patient be for a whole group? |

I think what they'd do is make lists (such as lists no. 3 and 4). The lower the number on the list, the less serious the condition(s). I think they'd sort people out by age too.
And about groups, I'd say 1 staff for every 3 patients.

When I was hospitalized, age was a defining factor. Adolescents aged 12-17 were in one group, and 18+ were in another. I don't know if there was any other things, but the mentally ill and behaviorally challenged people were all in one group. |

Damn... when Dru's admitted, she's 15 and by then Emily would be 27 or so...
You know what, though? St. Sebastian's is run by Nazi-wannabes and other evil folk and can do what it wants. So there.

Sometimes, that's the best option, to be honest.
But seriously, if they're creating super-soldiers against the subjects will, then they're fucking idiots anyway and would probably screw up a bottle party in a brewery.
