Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska 3326 Share Posted April 3, 2021 (edited) “Va Meynage ve Kongzem’s Mydical Effairz”Motto of the Office of the Surgeon General‘To Manage the Kingdom's Medical Affairs’ THE SURGEON GENERALS OF HAENSE, MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS OF THE CROWNEst. 257 E.S. | 1704 A.H. Or, A STUDY INTO THE SURGEON GENERALS OF HAENSE BY KATERINA BARBANOV --- The SURGEON GENERAL (New Marian: HAUCHMEDZA), or officially known as the SURGEON GENERAL AND MEDICAL PRACTITIONER OF THE CROWN, is the ranking member who holds the authority overseeing the Kingdom’s medical affairs. Historically, the Surgeon General is entrusted in the management of the Kingdom’s hospital and clinics, facilitated by the work of state-funded medical staff. The most likely candidate for designation has typically been among the most experienced Haeseni medical officer. In most cases, those born of nobility have held the seat although there have been cases where members of the gentry and those of elven descent have also held the seat. Historically, since the establishment of the position, most surgeon generals are attributed with extensive medicinal backgrounds prior to their ascension to Surgeon Generalship. The reconstruction and growth of the Kingdom’s medical sector took place extensively from 279 E.S. to 282 E.S. with the passage of the Great Medical Reform Act. As of 386 E.S., nine office holders have resigned from the position (I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII and IX). The office holder is distinguished by the pamphlet of Doctor Lotte Kortrevich, carried only by the Surgeon General, and traditionally holds symbolic value when a new Surgeon General is appointed. The reign of King Marius II saw the creation of the office of the Surgeon General which has since been occupied by ten different officeholders stretching across the reigns of six Haeseni monarchs. --- NON HAUCHMEDZALotte KortrevichLotte Kortrevich 257 E.S. - 277 E.S. | 1704 A.H. -1724 A.H.@Tigergiri Monarch(s): Marus II, Andrik III Although not the first Surgeon General, Lady Lotte’s work as a doctor was considered a predecessor to the position prior to the formal creation of the position in 279 ES with the Great Medical Reform Act. Doctor Lotte distinguished herself through her redesign of the Markev City Hospital, aided by the local stewardry, and established a staple of the future-position through the training of new doctors and medics before achieving her own formal license in 259 ES under the tutelage of Mayan Avern. As the War of Two Emperors broke out, Doctor Lotte served as a frontline medic assisting the injured soldiers of Haense and Curon. Doctor Lotte further contributed to medicine academically through the publication of three books on nutrition, combat surgery, and herblore. Her achievements were even felt in government, where she worked to ensure army medics were paid. Doctor Lotte served as Haense’s most prominent doctor until her sudden disappearance in 277 ES. --- I HAUCHMEDZAMayan AvernMayen Avern 283 E.S. - 300 E.S. | 1730 A.H. - 1747 A.H.@TheGayGuardian2 Monarch(s): Andrik III, Andrik IV Doctor Mayan Avern was the first official Surgeon General of Hanseti-Ruska after the Great Medical Reform Act. She worked alongside her assistant Dele Seregon by trying to push for more military medics and improving the structure of licensure in the city. Mayan also tried to encourage the building of a larger clinic and more money for supplies and herbs. When interviewed during her tenure, Doctor Mayan claimed that both she and her medics were often mistreated by the Haeseni people due to being Elves, which almost led to the cutting of her ears. This racism, coupled with a turbulent period following the Burning of Old Reza where the Hospital found itself unable to cope with the volume of patients, eventually led to Doctor Mayan's resignation. --- II HAUCHMEDZACheysna KovachevChesna Kovachev 300 E.S. - 306 E.S. | 1747 A.H. - 1753 A.H.@UnBaed Monarch(s): Andrik IV, Sigmund II During Doctor Chesna Kovachev’s tenure as Surgeon general, she renovated the whole clinic to try and improve the hospital along with replenishing the stocks on medicine and herbs. Her renovations were considered quite lovely due to the architecture skills the Kovachevs were so famed for. However it was said that Chesna was not very popular and received criticism for her efforts in the production of medicine and her push for more support to the hospital. This caused her to eventually retire as the Surgeon General. --- POSITION VACANT, 306 - 313 E.S. | 1753 - 1760 A.H. --- III HAUCHMEDZACynderCinder 313 E.S. - 323 E.S. | 1760 A.H. - 1770 A.H.@Missa_Demaris Monarch(s): Sigmund II Doctor Cinder was thrust into the position of Surgeon General upon the attempted assassination of the young Koeng, Sigismund II, from a near-fatal crossbow bolt that pierced the Koeng’s neck whilst young. Whilst he was saved, his voice would remain gravelly and quiet. Many conclude that Doctor Cinder's tenure was plagued by personal malpractice; often, other medics would have to reset patients' bones after Doctor Cinder had done it incorrectly, and she also became infamous for botched amputations. The Surgeon General later became more lax in her approach to her work, after the construction of a new hospital she was replaced. --- IV HAUCHMEDZATatyana RuthernTatiana Ruthern 323 E.S. - 333 E.S. | 1770 A.H. - 1780 A.H.@Disheartened Monarch(s): Sigmund II Doctor Ruthern's tenure as Surgeon General saw the onset of the Scyfling Invasion, which brought with it hordes of wounded soldiers and civilians alike. The hospital was regularly filled with new bodies and victims suffering all sorts of calamities from lost limbs to burns. During the moments Tatyana was not saving the wounded, she was overseeing the tutelage of new combat medics to replace others in the field. During one of the many battles of the conflict, Tatyana was tasked with saving and amputating the Koeng Sigismund II after mangling his arm during the fighting. As the dust began to settle and the Scyfling numbers thinned until the eventual death of Bralt the Boar and surrender of the Scyfling invaders, Tatyana resigned having, without doubt, saved a number of lives. --- V HAUCHMEDZADarinndrabor BlackrootDarinndrabor Blackroot 333 E.S. - 338 E.S. | 1780 A.H. - 1785 A.H.@Datweirdguy Monarch(s): Josef I After medical affairs quietened following the end of the Scyfling Invasion, Doctor Darinndrabor Blackroot was appointed Surgeon-General after Doctor Ruthern's resignation. Darinndrabor had been a medic and combatant during much of the Scyfling Conflict, running head-first into conflict and even becoming injured himself on occasion. As the clinic was in dire need of a new Surgeon General, Darinndrabor stepped up to the mark with an apprehensive welcome by his patients. This apprehension was aroused by the Dwarf’s unwillingness to heal soldiers, but rather move to immediately amputate limbs. As he stepped into his position, concern would only continue to grow. During one such attack on a hold-out left over from the Scyfling War, in an attempt to bring the Marshal, Manfred Barclay, to the medical tent he attacked him from behind to knock him out. Thankfully, soldiers stepped in to halt the Dwarf and he was sent scurrying away, though it was not the last of his troubles. Darinndrabor eventually resigned after threatening an elf with his axe, with some stating that he did more harm than good. --- VI HAUCHMEDZAElyanor Amador (vas Barclay)Eleanor Amador (née Barclay) 338 E.S. - 352 E.S. | 1785 A.H. - 1799 A.H.@Mady Monarch(s): Josef I Doctor Eleanor Amador took over management of the Hospital during the onset of the Inferi Invasion, which brought with it battles and masses of injuries, and resumed a rigorous training scheme to raise a new generation of medics both within and outside of the HRA. When researching her tenure, Prinzenas Katerina learnt - primarily from Doctor Aestenia and Lady Rosalind Amador - that Doctor Eleanor had often suffered from mistreatment and was often in conflict with patients and soldiers who refused to follow instructions. After the war and migration to Almaris, Doctor Eleanor resigned due to stress on her body caused by such events. --- VII HAUCHMEDZARenae Athri’onnRenae Athri’onn 352 E.S. - 361 E.S. | 1799 A.H. - 1808 A.H.@HeftyDonut Monarch(s): Josef I, Heinrik II Doctor Renae Athri’onn’s tenure as Surgeon General was thankfully considered uneventful with few conflicts occurring during the period. She would leave much of the medical work to her assistant, Aestenia Aevaris. Renae was not idle in her position however, and worked with Tribunes in the Royal Duma to push for medics to be paid for their service. This would later come to fruition with the Medical Commission Initiative in 358ES. After five years of service as Surgeon General, she resigned. --- VIII HAUCHMEDZAAestenia AevarisAestenia Aevaris 361 E.S. - 377 E.S. | 1808 A.H. - 1824 A.H.@lillyeveans Monarch(s): Heinrik II Biography in Progress. --- IX HAUCHMEDZAKateryna BarbanovKaterina Barbanov 377 E.S. - 386 E.S. | 1824 A.H. - 1833 A.H.@MissToni Monarch(s): Heinrik II Biography in Progress. --- X HAUCHMEDZAEmma KortrevichEmma Kortrevich 386 E.S. - Present | 1833 A.H. - Present@livrose Monarch(s): Heinrik II Current Incumbent.

bumblefina 2249 Share Posted April 3, 2021 "Unsurprising to hear that over many decades, Haense has consistently mistreated the people who were literally trying to save them." commented Juniper to a companion of hers after having read the publication. "The nation is sick, deeply and perhaps incurably. Their hearts are rotten." 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
