General Rules

When you are accepted into the NHS you will be given HCA (Health Care Assistant) and you must add HCA. to your in game name when you launch Arma 3, everytime you log on as nhs your rank must be with your name.
1.0 - When playing as a medic you need to make sure that you value your life at all times. This is the most important medic rule and this can overlap other medic rules in certain situations.
1.1 - Value the life of all civilians, rebels and police. You are a neutral faction on the island and need to make sure that you value everyone’s life equally.
1.2 - You are not allowed to carry a weapon in any situations. If someone forces you to take a gun or you have been seeing carrying one, you will need to provide video proof to NHS Management (CMO) to show the reason why you have one. (Not being able to give proof may lead to a removal from the NHS.)
1.3 - Work with the Police as much as possible as this helps things to run more smoothly, however this can be overthrown if it puts your life or your patient's life in danger. Always use common sense and keep a neutral position.
1.4 - The chain of command is to be respected at all times. It is there for a reason.
1.5 - You are always expected to roleplay to the best of your abilities. Refusing to roleplay will lead to a warning point or removal from the NHS.
1.6 - Never commit a crime or assist others in such activities. This includes road crimes (with exception of rule 6.4 where you can steal your robbers car). If you do get caught doing a crime by the Police, then you are required to pay the ticket. .
1.6.1 - You shouldn’t assist Police or Rebels with transport to possible active crime areas. We are completely neutral and your main priorities should always be saving lives.
1.6.2 - You should not report crimes that you have witnessed, unless you or another medic were directly involved.

1.7 - When you are logged in as NHS, you are very much expected to be active. Idling for no obvious reason will be punished. It is okay to take a small break to use the restroom and other real life necessities, but if you are going to be afk for more than 5 minutes you are required to log out. (This is to prevent people from bleeding out while waiting for a medic that is never coming).

Server Zones

2.0 - Blue Zones: Medics are allowed to revive in blue zone
2.1 - Red Zones: are no entry zones and as such, the NHS has NO business there, don’t revive people in the conflict zone. Don’t enter the red zone as it would mean you are not valuing you life.
2.2 - Green zones are populated cities, as a medic you're not supposed to loiter in these zones with a helicopter or stay in these zones for longer than 15 minutes.

Reviving

3.0 - Do not resuscitate a player more than 2 times if they keep committing suicide and/or trolling. You can come up with some RP. For example: ‘’He is too badly injured to revive again therefore I have to let go.’’ This does not mean you can cannibalise them, if you don’t want to revive them then just don’t go to them at all.
3.1 - Combat reviving is never acceptable. Under no circumstances are you allowed to be forced to revive. Even if this means you aren’t valuing your life. Revert to rule 9.0
3.2 - Do not cannibalise people as it is against the law.
3.3 - Never revive anybody with your rangefinders/binoculars equipped. It is classed as exploiting, due to them eradicating the revive animation - people may not know whether you're reviving someone or just standing there.
3.4 - The current reviving priority goes as - Medic, Police, Civilians then Gangs.

Teamspeak

4.0 - You must be in the NHS channels on Teamspeak no matter what, failure to do so will have you demoted or removed from the NHS. People can accuse you of teaming up with your gang if you are in the same channel as them so make sure you are in the NHS Teamspeak at all times!
4.1 - If someone contacts you via Teamspeak and asks you to revive them, you are not to listen to them. Contacting a medic via Teamspeak for ingame treatment is considered metagaming and is against the server rules. You may inform them of this rule if that should happen to you. You are still allowed to revive them, however you are allowed to let them die so that they learn a lesson.
4.2 - Make sure that you are communicating with the other medics about who goes where etc, to avoid all the medics going to the same area. Spreading out and sharing the workload is important. This means that you are allowed to mute your sound when you are roleplaying, but other than that you should have your sound on at all times.
4.3 - Make sure your microphone is active in 185.38.149.82:9079 (near reality roleplay) Teamspeak so that we know you are not metagaming with any rebels. Not following this rule will give you warnings and you can be even kicked from the NHS.
4.4 - Make sure you use the SAME name in Teamspeak as you use in game when playing also make sure that the name is what you have told the staff. (Helps us to follow activity and helps you to get promoted).

Vehicles

6.1 - Do not give/sell medical vehicles to anyone. A medical vehicle is government property and not yours to sell, if you need to get rid of items, use the NHS vendor or put it in your vehicle and store it.
6.2 - Always lock your vehicle. It is your responsibility to protect your vehicle from grand theft and injury.
6.3 - Never park/land on the road. Blocking traffic is extremely hazardous and may lead to further injury or death. (Only leave it on road if the patient is on the road and that will protect patient not to be driven over. Use all lights possible to show where you are).
6.4 - Only operate medical vehicles. Civilian vehicles do not have the necessary emergency equipment, lights and sirens and as such they are useless to a medic. (Only use other vehicles if your NHS vehicle gets stolen and robbers leave their vehicle behind. You have to drive RIGHT AWAY to hospital to get new NHS vehicle).
6.5 - If you are done using a vehicle, store it. Leaving a vehicle unattended will more than likely lead to it being stolen, and that would be your responsibility if it happened. (If a vehicle has been crashed make sure you do every thing you can to save it before leaving it.)
6.6 - If someone asked you for a lift you may deny them the lift if you believe it is going to put you in a danger or if you think it will get in the way of your work. You cannot charge for lifts.
6.7 - If your vehicle is stolen, report it to the Police immediately.
6.8- If someone is lockpicking your vehicle, get in and drive/fly away. When you are at safe distance, you should contact the police and describe the suspect, and/or ask for police assistance on the scene. (Do not pull people out of a moving car/helicopter.)
6.9 - When responding to an accident you must use sirens and emergency lights. Do not abuse the sirens and lights, as they are for emergencies only. If you are seen abusing this often you might get punished for it. When responding to an emergency, you are allowed to exceed the speed limits. Use headlights always when driving.
6.10 - To turn on your sirens you need to press F. to turn on the emergency lights press Shift + L, doing this in any other car than a medical car is considered exploiting.

7.0a - Helicopters may only be piloted by a qualified medical pilot. Under no circumstance are the controls to be handed over to someone else. (Only accepted situation is if the pilot loses connection and disconnects from the server.)
7.0b -
7.1 - Under no circumstances are helicopters to be used for “fun”, such as just flying around for laughs, stunt flying (example flying under power lines) or because you are bored. You are allowed to do delivery missions if you have nothing to do. This counts for all the medics. (Don’t prioritize delivery missions over patients!)
7.2 - Do not sell your helicopter for anything or do not give them out to people.
7.3 - In Kavala, Pyrgos and other major cities, NHS Helicopters are only allowed to land at the helipads on the Hospitals, or at any Police Station (With permission from the Police via dispatch) There are no exceptions to this rule. Anyone caught breaking this rule may face a demotion and blacklist from flying.
7.4 - Do not hover in green ones. Most people have headphones and helicopters are loud. Do not also hover around firefights.
7.5 - Medics who are found to violate any of the helicopters rules will be permanently blacklisted from flying.
7.6 - Never fly your Helicopter into a prison to revive anyone, if the police asks you to revive someone in prison and gave you explicit permission to do so use the front door. (This is counted as breaking the law and you will be punished for it.
7.7 - You are only allowed to sling load vehicles that you have spawned yourself or if you have been given permission from the vehicle owner. Do not sling load random/abandoned vehicles as this will be counted as initiation

8.0 - Never drop your uniform.
8.1 - When patrolling on foot or in ground vehicles don’t wear the pilot outfit, but use the basic or high visuality medic clothing.
8.2 - Only wear the wetsuit, rebreather and diving goggles for underwater emergencies.
8.3 - Never sell your equipment to other people. Never drop items to ground. Use the medic NPC to sell gear that you want to dispose of. Alternatively, put it in a car then store the car.
8.4 - Do not fill your vehicle with first aids, toolkits or food. Only carry what is necessary

Combat Reviving

9.0 - Combat reviving is not allowed. EVER. Not even if a gun is held to you.
9.1 - A medic is expected to pay attention to the location of people’s deaths and the names of those involved to estimate whether or not it may be an active/ongoing situation. For example if you see someone from the [APC] died near drug dealer, common sense will tell you that something is going down there.
9.2 - A medic is expected to acquire as much information as possible about a situation before attempting to revive. This means checking the surrounding area for hostility (use binoculars), if people are sitting in combat positions, if there are burning wrecks and more importantly - if someone is currently shooting. It is not always easy to know whether or not there is an active gunfight when you have just arrived at a scene, but you are expected to do your utmost to avoid combat reviving.
9.3 - When in doubt - ask! Use teamspeak to ask other medics who are also on duty, or use ingame voice and speak to bystanders or participants about what is going on. You can also use police dispatch to ask the police about a sitrep (situation report).
9.4 - Always announce your presence when you arrive on a scene, for example “NHS on scene! Anybody hurt?”. This, including the sound of your wailing sirens should alert everyone to your presence so that they may approach you and update you on the situation if there is currently a combat situation.
9.5 - You need to always wait at least 5 minutes since the last gunshot was fired until you may start reviving (In Kavala you need to know are gunshots to that situation or something else). Even if the situation seems to be over you need to wait. This is to prevent accidental combat revivings happening.
9.6 - You may transfuse blood even if it is an ongoing combat situation, but it is very important that you inform everyone what you are doing so that there can be no mistake or misunderstandings about your actions. The reason for transfusing blood instead of reviving is to prevent the victim from bleeding out and letting the people who are fighting have a fair chance at concluding the gunfight in a fair and proper manner.
9.7 - Everybody makes mistakes now and then. If you believe you may have accidentally combat revived someone, you should approach the involved people in Teamspeak after the situation is resolved and try to sort things out. You must also inform your superior within NHS about the situation CST or CMO
9.8 - Any medic found to intentionally combat revive or disregard these rules will be immediately discharged from the NHS, blacklisted from ever applying and subsequently reported on the forums.
9.9 - If a situation is active you must always place a RED MARKER saying "Active Since (time)" For the time please use XX:(Minutes) So for example "Active Since XX:52" because different people are from all around the world and different timezones. As well as putting Teamspeak communication to good use and tell other medics if a situation is active & where.
