A starship is only as functional as its crew, and it's the mission of the Medical Division to ensure that Starfleet personnel get the care they need for their physical and mental health. Medical Division personnel are also deeply involved with research projects of their own and work closely with their colleagues in the Sciences Division.

While medical personnel and counselors are considered part of the Sciences Division in the series canon, for SB118 simming purposes, they have been grouped into their own distinct division.
