The '''Sickbay''' is located deep within Saucer section which makes it more protected in times of combat. The ''[[USS Columbia]]'' uses a very similar sickbay layout as the Galaxy class. The sickbay on the Columbia is one of the largest in the fleet. Having many facilities from surgical ward, neo-natal ward, biohazard ward, critical triage ward, trauma stasis unit, medical sciences ward, a primary ICU and even a overflow ICU. This allows the medical staff of the Columbia to provide state of the art medical services even in the far reaches of the galaxy. Only medical ships have a greater number of facilities. | The '''Sickbay''' is located deep within Saucer section which makes it more protected in times of combat.

Intensive Care Units - Four biobeds line the walls of sickbay's intensive care unit, or ICU; these were for patients receiving medical care and were equipped with biofunction monitors. On Columbia, private rooms are available for long-term patients. | Intensive Care Units - Four biobeds line the walls of sickbay's intensive care unit, or ICU; these were for patients receiving medical care and were equipped with biofunction monitors. Also each ICU has a surgical bed in the center of the room. On Columbia, private rooms are available for long-term patients. | ||
Surgical Ward - The Sickbay also had surgical beds, where major surgeries were performed and critical patients were treated. A large, sophisticated sensor cluster was usually installed directly above this bed. Working in conjunction with a medical tricorder, the sensor suite could give detailed information about a patient's condition. The bed was also designed to use a surgical support frame. This bed is located in the center of the main sickbay room, although the Columbia also has separate spaces for their surgical beds which can be isolated by a force field. If necessary, surgery can be conducted in the intensive care ward if there was an overflow of patients or if another patient was present to donate blood. | Surgical Ward - The Sickbay also had surgical beds, where major surgeries were performed and critical patients were treated.
