Ministral Tour

OOC: I didn't remember to change from Robert to Khaat. Sorry! It really is Khaat speaking, not Robert.


"Well, you are absolutely right. It was a hole. And our families deserve far better than that. I want it to be the best we can give. I want to add other departments that we do not have--a full OB-GYN ward with a maternity ward and state of the art delivery room. A physical and occupational therapy department to rehabilitate witches and wizards to be able to care for themselves again and to be productive in our community, and an in house apothecary so that they can get medicines and potions that their healers prescribe for them handmade right here for them. We need to reach out to families who suffer from vampirism, lycanthropy and other such curses and teach them how to care for themselves and their loved ones and to be able to support them, when immediate help is needed. Along with several other additions.

I think other hospitals across Britain, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales would be superb ideas,' Khaat said. :That means we would drastically have to increase our fundraising. I do not think they would need to be as large and comprehensive as this facility should be. But I would like to expand services like the night bus andn other resources so that any wizard who needs treatment can always get access to it.

"And the idea for the internship program sounds very workable to me. I think we could also use a large pool of volunteers. I haven't thought about relocating the hospital, but I will give that considerable thought. Oh, and by the way, I have taken great pains to be sure that all patient records remain extremely confidential behind the most involved and complicated security system I could find. The only one, at this point, who has access to it is me. I have not given that to anyone else. I'm sure that at some point, I will also give that access to someone else I trust equally as well, and that will most likely be Jack here. But, I think you will find our security here to be far more advanced than even some of the ministry's own departments--no offense intended. I mention it because I do not want medical records of any witch or wizard being able to be used as any sort of a political weapon. And we both know how easily that can happen. I take that very seriously. I take this hospital immensely seriously."

"Well i must admit you did a very proffesional job with St.Mungo's though it could still probably use a touch here or there which we should see while you give me a tour around the place.Regarding to chain of hospitals around Britain well you have my full support for whatever you need ofcourse measured with my possibilities now since Minister Diggory is back.So i suggest we take a tour around the place and continue with suggestions after we are done." Gabrielle said talking slowly though her speech was rather long.She waited for Khaat and Jack to give their opinions.Didn't wait for Richard since he really didn't have much of a choice.

"Absolutely," Khaat said. She rose from her chair and took Gabrielle, Richard, and Jack with her for a walk through tour of every part of the hospital, the good and the not-so-updated yet. Khaat had nothing to hide. She was proud of what she had done so far. She started with the top floor, showed her the plans to move the gift shop down to the ground floor where it would get more traffic. She showed her the mental wards and how they had been made more homelike. She showed her the offices.

She showed her the wards, which she was turning into wings with private and semi private rooms rather than big open wards, and the various departments they had always offered. She showed them where she wanted to add pediatrics, OB-GYN units, delivery rooms, and more. She took them clear to the ground floor and showed how she wanted increased security, an emergency room suite, and waiting rooms for numerous departments. She took her down to the basement and showed her the apothecary, the potions lab, and other services housed there. She left nothing out.

"Great then let's go.." Gabrielle said as she dragged Richard along against his will while they were following Khaat and her assistant.She looked fascinated on the long way through St,Mungo's.She only been there for a couple of times and never imagined it was that long and exsousting to walk around the entire hospital. "Tell me Khaat how long does it take excatly to give a tour of the entire hospital?I like precise timing.But i am enjoying it anyway.." she asked as they walked through what seemed was hundreds and hundreds of rooms and departments,

"Well," Khaat said, "We're about at the end of the tour itself. And I am quite sure I have thrown a lot of information at you at once. As you can see we've done a lot of work but there is still a mountain of work to be done. I don't know that I have precise timing on giving a tour. I allow people to take time to see what they are interested in and ask questions. I am very grateful for your support, though, with our plans to make this a much better place for wizarding families. Do you have any more questions for us? Or would you like to go back to my office? Whatever you'd like."

Gabrielle did look around with interest especially at the lobby.Richard just walked along without a word.She didn't know if he was angry,sad or simply didn't handle being in same room with her for some reason though she didn't stop to discuss that now.Decided to ask what's his problem later. "Well i am generally impressed with everything you've done so far.One last question...do you have specialized healers?I mean like in mental disorders,ginecology for example?" she asked not sure why did that intrest her though it did.She wasn't planning on having more kids at age of 37.

"Well, yes. We do. But we also have my father who is a Master Healer and one of the very few left. I'm quite certain he can handle a great many things that even our specialists cannot," Khaat said. "He is also a very experienced potionsmaster. I see very little that he cannot deal with in one way or another."

Gabrielle satisfied her intrest or curiousity didn't know how to call it so she decided to return to what was she actually supposed to do. "You repeated your father is a Master Healer for a couple of times.I think you made that clear.." she commented though not in any offensive mode just like a notice. "Anyway since i am already here i guess i could enforce the law a bit which is do boring beuracracy.Yeah papers isn't that annoying part of all jobs?So let's get back to your office then." she suggested not really wanting to discuss beuracracy in the hall.

Khaat ignored completely what she interpreted at unnecessary rudeness from Gabrielle as her response to Khatt's attempting to answer her queestions. After all, St. Mungos was generally at the bottom of the ministry's list of fundings, and Khaat actually thought she had done well but providing what she had done on her own. They were limitedly staffed, and she had responded by hiring the best she could find. She led the way back to her office, now wanting this to be over as quickly as obviously Gabrielle also did.

Gabrielle felt the sudden tension in air. Did i say something inpropriate? she thought not sure if Khaat understood her last notice as an offense or as it was a reminder.Anyway decided to discuss that later in private since Richard was already bored enough and she still had a tour to finish.She followed Khaat quietly in her office. "Stay here Morgan!" she ordered him as they entered Khaat's office. "I am sorry if something i said disturb you Khaat i meant no offence." she said deadly serious as she sat down in the chair she got up from earlier to go for the tour.
