Patients don't get cured?

[Flame Of Udûn]

I have doubled up on equipment and staff needed but all my staff just stand around talking whilst y 'lightbulb' patients read magazines until they die. Any help will be appreciated! thanks

[Alun1]

having the same issue, they don't even register at reception, just walk around til they die.

Yep, just started playing, I've got doctors and nurses standing round and patients not getting diagnosed and dying, pretty poor.

Have you got enough Nurses? Without nurses to shift the patients about, they'll sit waiting for one to free up. (At least have as many nurses as doctors, although a couple of extra one's wouldn't go amiss)

You also need to keep an eye on your equipment needing repairs, if it's not functional it won't help cure people.

Is there a way to pick up these patients and place them into the specific rooms where they need to be? They just stand at the door and won't go in.

try to look the sheet of your staff, because her too have need more thing such as food an other thing,

if the nurse go well, the problem can be the doctor, if the doctor are at her lunch time or if they sleep, the nurse wait for the doctor...,

take a look too on the part of the sheet of your worker, some worker are good worker and other try to work less than other, it's always the first thing i look before hiring a new people, or when i want to replace one of mine people they don't want to work too hard, more of the time it's this the problem, the people pass more time to talk than working...

Edit :
i Forget to say to try to have always one more people in a working domain than the people you need to replace the people they take her pause or for the lunch time, ect..., for the nurse, you can have two more depending if your hospital are big or small...

like this, if you have one they go eat or take a brake, the other will go take her place.

to give you an idea, you can view on this picture a good example we can find in the story, this people don't go to work even if they have something to do, you need to say her what to do..., in this situation it's better to say her goodbye and take an other one they are more active else, you will need to have an eye always on her.

Edit :

I have just make the mission 4 in the second level, and i have view what you want to say, badly, after more test, it's seem they have no way to correct this, even if you reload the game, i view it's a bug of the game, the people stop working, the patient don't go where they need to go, they rest stock in some place, ect...

i have trying more thing to try to make it loading well the mission again but no success, the only thing we can do it's to try to start again this mission, i have not tested the sand box game for now, but if it's happen in this too one time, i think we will need to restart all, but for now i view this bug only in the mission 4 of the second level in the story mission...

Same deal here. I have patients that are "Waiting: reception" but there is no line at reception, I have 3 people working the desk and no patients approach them. Some patients are on "waiting: diagnosis" just hanging out in the halls while doctors and nurses permanently talk to eachother in their office. This all happened pretty far in on Story Mode too.

I've had the same problem on a specific level and my decontaminators are stuck on stupid as well!

[Kanonenfutter]

what i found out so far:

- have at least one more receptionist than seats at the reception, they will not got to the staff room to rest if there is a free place at the reception. And when they are exausted they will not process a new patient.
- keep in mind that some machines require the patient to get undressed. This depends on their disease. The research machine does require it also.

I managed to solve it. I fired my receptionists (all of them) and hired new ones. Of some reason that solved the problem

[Nordson]

Solved. I send my receptionist to the staff room to rest. When she came back, the patients started to go to the desk again, to get registered.

Moi je croit que j'ai eu un bug... car tous travaillais,, puit d'un coup,, les patiens etait plus prits en charge du tout,, mais si ça m'arrive encore, je regarderais de plus pret les trais de caractere du personnel impliqué.
