The main building's basement is where the lab and instrument sterilization are located. The lab tests samples and sends results to the doctors, while instrument sterilization makes sure surgical instruments are, well, sterile enough for surgery.

F2: OR
Second floor. If you need surgery, this is where you're coming. They do everything from the most basic appendectomy, to the complicated transplants. After surgery, you're taken to the PACU (post-anesthesia care unit- recovery room) to make sure all is well.

F5: PALLIATIVE CARE
Fifth floor. Unfortunately, there are sometimes patients that are simply terminal. For those patients, there's the palliative care unit, where they will receive no more treatment, but instead be kept comfortable in hotel-style rooms, until they pass away.
