Settings
Pediatric ICU Ward
A fluorescent-lit maze of beeping monitors and glass-walled rooms where children lie connected to dialysis machines. The air smells of antiseptic attempting to mask decay, while exhausted parents keep vigil in plastic chairs that weren't designed for sleeping.
Zenith Pharmaceuticals Regional Office
A gleaming high-rise with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city, marble lobbies displaying awards for "Excellence in Healthcare," and conference rooms where leather chairs surround tables too large for honest conversation. Every surface reflects David Mensah's carefully curated image of corporate benevolence.
