Chief Medical Officer

Much like the Chief Engineering Officer is responsible for maintaining the physical well-being of the ship, the Chief Medical Officer shall be responsible for maintaining the physical well-being of the crew. This is accomplished by scheduling regular exams of crewmen and by directing a staff of trained personnel in medical procedures.

Responsibilities
CMOs are responsible for conducting examinations of all crew members assigned to a vessel on a yearly basis. If necessary, the Chief Medical Officer can be called upon to coordinate all activities that relate to the physical health of the crew. In addition, as the senior most medical authority on a vessel, all field related missions will require consultation with the CMO. One of the unique powers given to the Chief Medical Officer is the ability to relieve a ship's CO of his or her duty if it is determined he or she is medically unfit. This power is not taken lightly, however, for if the CMO is proven to be out-of-line, he or she will be accountable for putting the crew in possible danger by removing the Commanding Officer.
