<McRae in SickBay>

Dr. McRae exits the Turbolift and enters the Lafayette SickBay for the first time.  The first thing she notices is the cramped quarters, and she immediately thinks "My facilities on Delvacon Station were so much more advanced."  She frowns slightly at the unbidden memory of Delvacon, and pushes it out of her mind.  She looks around Sickbay, and notes that one of the medical beds is occupied by a woman, in a deep coma, being attended by an ensign.  Another woman, whom McRae assumes to be the acting CMO Lt. Barrett, makes her way to the SickBay entrance to greet McRae.

McRae greets the lieutenant:  "Dr. Barrett, I'm Dr. McRae. I'm pleased to meet you, and look forward to our service together.  I am sure I will rely heavily on your knowledge of the Lafayette and her crew in the weeks to come."  McRae looks around SickBay once again, her attention centering on the SickBay's only current patient.  "Dr. Barrett, I would appreciate a quick tour of the area, an inventory of all the medical supplies loaded on board in preparation for our current mission, and in particular, the current status of our patient there....."
