Pictured: Austin Rhodes, Harper Cassidy, Thiago Larranaga, Anna Li, Mia Robinson, Jayden Woo & Tara Marquez Pillbox Hill Medical Center, located on Elgin Avenue cross Strawberry Avenue is the leading private medical facility in the county of Los Santos. It stands as a cornerstone of emergency medicine, and is host to an Emergency Room amongst the busiest globally, managing over 150,000 visits annually. Over 68% of the county's trauma victims are seen at Pillbox Hill's ER. The clinical setting is responsible for training over 900 resident physicians, and the irreversibly tired cast of emergency room overtimers, colloquially internally known as the "EM Mafia" are largely accredited for the rapid inhouse services. This team of emergent physicians and trauma nurses are led by the EM Attending Physician Dr. Harper Cassidy — a fiery redhead with a sharp tongue and sharper instincts, the type who can intubate during a power cut. This roster of medical professionals have sacrified sizeable elements of their personal lives in the greater interest of the emergency room; and this thread will follow their stories, triumphs, tragedies and interpersonal relationships as they wage war with the neverending trauma that the City of Los Santos seems to tirelessly generate. If the ER is hell, you can be sure as shit these boys n' girls are the devils running it. Interested in joining Pillbox Medical? We're always looking for new staff (doctors, nurses, etc.)! Feel free to have a look here for employment opportunities. You DON'T need any prior experience with medical roleplay or any knowledge in the field. We'll train you from the ground up! Everyone is welcome. ❤️

RYELLE João Pereira ♥ Ryelle was hired into the Pillbox Hill Medical Center in March of 2025. As of April 2025 Ryelle is actively employed AND learning the ropes as a licensed vocational nurse. She strives for more. ((OOC NOTE: This is my first character thread. It will improve over time!)) ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ryelle was born and raised in the state of Florida by both parents. Michel Periera and Imani Periera. Michel, originally from Brazil, had served in the Brazilian military before relocating to the United States to retire. Imani, her mother, was a hotel receptionist who worked like crazy to support herself and create a stable, welcoming environment for Ryelle and, overall, her relationship with Michel. Growing up, Ryelle was always surrounded by stories of her father's experiences in the military, where he had learned the importance of discipline, service, and sacrifice. This was a motto she'd always live by. Ryelle was naturally drawn to helping others. Whether it was caring for a house pet, opening doors for the elderly folks, or helping her mother with gardening... She found purpose in being there for those in need. Over time, this desire to care for others evolved into a clear vision for her future: becoming a nurse. Her turning point came during a visit to Brazil with her family to see her father's relatives. She decided this was really her calling. As a result, she graduated from FVI School of Nursing and Technology in Miami, Aventuras to look for an opportunity in LS due to her hard work and dedication. THIS... IS HER STORY. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

This thread tells the story of DR. AUSTIN RHODES, a young Doctor — never considering himself a prodigy; who has now landed a role at the Pillbox Hill Medical Center as a Doctor of Pharmacy. Rhodes wasn't a student who particularly breezed through the exams of the University of Nevada, and nor was he the type to master complex pharmaceutical concepts at a first glance. He's a more sociable element — but a socialite not particularly afraid of hard word and "the graft", and someone with relentless perserverance. Austin had a tireless work ethic and a deep-seated commitment to his craft, and it's these attributes that landed him his doctorate. LIFE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA My journey through college was a test of endurance, intellect, and — quite frankly — an irritating level of sheer determination. The first few weeks were exciting and overwhelming, and no, not just because of the coursework (as brutal as Chemistry was), but the pressure of proving that I belonged among these other students. Most of them were natural academics, or they came from money. You know the type… I’ve always been a social creature by nature. I thrived in study groups, found comfort in late-night diner runs with friends, and never shied away from striking up conversations with strangers. I’ve been told I’m good-looking, not that I really think about it, but the kind of person who turns heads without realizing it. That said, I never carried myself with arrogance. My charm, if you could call it that, came from my ability to connect with people, to make them feel at ease. Still, for all my sociability, I struggled with self-doubt. Professors intimidated me. My high-achieving peers made everything seem effortless, and I couldn’t help but compare myself. That insecurity didn’t just vanish after graduation — it followed me into my career, too. My academic performance was never effortless. Chemistry was relentless — balancing equations, memorizing compounds, endless lab reports. The nights were long, often stretching into dawn, with coffee as my only companion. I wasn’t a natural genius, but I was relentless. What I lacked in raw talent, I made up for with sheer determination and an unshakable "keep pushing forward" attitude. Of course, I couldn’t just let medical school be hard — I had to make it even harder for myself. Between classes, labs, and exams, I also worked part-time at the Reno Community Health Clinic as an intern. The schedule was brutal — juggling coursework, hospital rotations, and real-world experience all at once. But the clinic was where I found my passion. Helping people, even in the smallest ways — filling prescriptions, answering questions, seeing the relief on patients' faces — it made all the exhaustion worth it. The clinic also gave me something else: a sense of belonging. It was a place where I could be myself, where I didn’t have to hide who I was. I never made some grand announcement about being gay, but my close friends knew. In the right company, it was just another fact about me — like my love for early 2000s music or my tendency to stress-eat before exams or important meetings. By the time I finally crossed the stage in September 2023, doctorate in hand, it felt surreal. I had fought through the sleepless nights, the self-doubt, the pressure — and I won. Next up? Los Santos. A city unlike anything I had ever known. LOS SANTOS, AND PILLBOX HILL MEDICAL CENTER I hadn’t expected a response to my application so quickly. When I sent it to Pillbox Hill Medical Center, I thought it would take weeks, maybe even months, to hear back — if I heard anything at all. I was fresh out of university, with only my internship experience to lean on. Los Santos was a big city, and PHMC was one of the top medical facilities in the state. Why would they be interested in me, really? Well, four days later — I received an email scheduling my interview. It took a few proofreads over the three-sentence email for it to actually sink in. This is a guy who wants to become a clinical pharmacist, struggling to read a few sentences and believe it. Excitement? Panic? Yeah, both. When I arrived for my interview, the absolute first thing I noticed was that PHMC was fucking huge. Towering white walls, pristine glass windows, so many people in lab coats walking in and out. It was intimidating, for sure. But I swallowed that feeling, squared my shoulders, and checked in with the receptionist before being led to an office on the administrative floor. There, behind a sleek white desk, sat Miss Xenia Karahalioglou — and yeah, her name was a challenge. "Kar-ha... Kara-hal-... Kar-oh..." — give it up, Austin. Apologize and move on. That worked, by the way. She laughed it off and told me it happened all the time. She was friendly enough, her demeanor professional but not cold. She asked me about my life — my experiences, what motivated me to study pharmacy, what I hoped to achieve in Los Santos. The questions weren’t technical like I expected. They weren’t about drug interactions or dosage calculations. "Why pharmacy?", "What did you struggle with most in University?", "How do you handle pressure?" I answered as best I could. I talked about the sleepless nights, not being a natural genius (yeah, great thing to advertise in a job interview, goofball), but more than anything, I talked about how I worked myself to the bone just to be sitting at this desk. I told her about the clinic — the long shifts, the patients who didn’t always have insurance, the moments that reminded me why I loved this field in the first place. I kept waiting for the hard questions — the ones about the deeper nuances of pharmaceuticals. Seemingly, they never came. Instead, she just rose from her chair, shuffled some papers, and greeted me with: "You're hired." I'm what?... THE FUTURE & GUNNING FOR MY M.D. Everything is going pretty great right now, which just means I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. It's either that - or something is already going wrong, and I'm just too hungover from that night out to realise it; or the caffeine is blocking any negative energy right now. Heh. — I'm enjoying PHMC a lot, everyone I've met so far is awesome. There's some people who carry a certain aura of "I will rip your face off", like Mist'r Wayland; but apart from him, everyone else seems pretty alright. I like my boss a lot, Doct'r Rosati - she's got vision, and even though she always looks tired (and don't tell her I said that), she's always up for a talk. I had a meeting scheduled with her today regarding my career trajectory at Pillbox. Long and behold, it looks like I'm on my way back to medical school to get my M.D. — I mean, I knew that'd have t'happen eventually if I wanted to move beyond pharmacology; and I didn't think I'd be ready this quick after getting employment, but hey-ho. It'll be a night endeavour, as I don't want t'sacrifice my role at Pillbox for it. That just means it's going to be a longer journey, mind you. The preliminary goal is to get my M.D. — then my residency in Internal Medicine, and if I'm not dead by then — a fellowship in urology, physiotherapy or cardiology. I dunno' yet; we'll see what takes my eye when we get closer to there. So yeah, now I’m looking at medical schools in Los Angeles. I’ve spent enough time around this hospital to know I want to be more hands-on with patients, not just managing meds but understanding the bigger picture. I’ve been especially drawn to urology, physiotherapy, and cardiography (yeah, a mixed bag; I know) — but it's the kind of work that mixes technical skill with patient interaction. Picking a school’s been its own process. UCLA and USC are at the top of my list. Both have solid programs and plenty of clinical rotations in big hospitals; although I'd love if PHMC just retained me. I’ve been reading course outlines, sitting through info sessions, trying to imagine what day-to-day life would actually look like. I’m not trying to be at the most prestigious place — just somewhere that’ll give me the training I need, and maybe a bit of breathing room to figure things out as I go.

A Year in Review: Developments at Pillbox Hill Medical Center (Los Santos, SA) — As 2024 comes to a close, we invite you to reflect on a year of remarkable progress and transformation at Pillbox Hill Medical Center. Join us for an exclusive look behind the scenes—not as a patient or visitor, but as a witness to the innovations and milestones that defined our year. Leadership and Vision: A New Era Begins September 9, 2023, marked a pivotal moment in our institution’s history with the appointment of Dr. Bleichroder and Mr. Malik as President and Vice President, respectively. Under their visionary leadership, Pillbox Hill Medical Center has embarked on a journey of growth and excellence. This year witnessed significant transformations, some visible and widely recognized, while others unfolded quietly, enriching the foundation of our care. Rebranding and Expansion: A Bold New Look One of the most striking changes was the unveiling of our new brand identity. This comprehensive rebranding effort included the introduction of a modern logo, reflecting our commitment to innovation and community service. Our fleet of hospital-owned vehicles received updated liveries, enhancing their visibility and professionalism. Moreover, extensive renovations were undertaken, revitalizing twelve floors, our garage, and even our on-site museum. These upgrades were not just aesthetic but functional, among others driven by the integration of the Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner into our organization—a step that demanded expanded facilities and new infrastructure. Collaboration and Community Engagement Throughout the year, we deepened our collaborations with the Department of Health and Welfare, local clinics, and private practices. Our partnerships extended to businesses like the San Andreas Fighting Association, where our team provided comprehensive medical coverage for regular events. These collaborations exemplify our dual commitment to preventive care and immediate assistance, ensuring the well-being of our community at all times. Beyond clinical responsibilities, our team has been active in public health education. We participated in, co-hosted, and even hosted events addressing critical topics, including health awareness, lifestyle enhancement, cultural inclusivity, and more. These initiatives underscore our dedication to fostering a healthier, more informed community. Our People: The Heart of Our Success None of these achievements would have been possible without our exceptional team. This year, we successfully doubled our staff, an accomplishment that reflects both the growth of our institution and our commitment to creating a workplace where excellence thrives. Our staff works tirelessly—every second, every minute, every hour, all year long—to ensure the highest standards of care and service. Their dedication continues to define Pillbox Hill Medical Center as a leader in healthcare. Looking Ahead: 2025 and Beyond As we step into 2025, we remain steadfast in our mission to build upon this year’s successes. Our renovation plans are far from complete, and we are thrilled to announce the upcoming launch of a state-of-the-art Emergency Room. Additionally, we are exploring opportunities to expand our footprint with new locations across San Andreas, ensuring that quality care is accessible to all, wherever they may require our attention. Thank you for being part of our journey. Together, we look forward to another year of progress, innovation, and service to the community. ### About Pillbox Hill Medical Center Pillbox Hill Medical Center is a leading healthcare provider in Los Santos, San Andreas, offering a wide range of medical services to patients from all walks of life.
