A First Aid station, as seen in Halo 3: ODST.

A First Aid Station, or a Medical Kiosk, is a usable stationary terminal in Halo 3: ODST, that dispenses Optican Health Packs. A normal First Aid station contains two health pack sockets. Like most of New Mombasa's infrastructure, these stations are controlled by the city's urban infrastructure AI, the Superintendent.[1]

Gameplay

Since ODST and Marine personnel lack any form of energy shield, like that used by previous playable characters in the Halo series, health is much more important, and thus the Medical Kiosk is a vital part of gameplay. It works in a similar fashion as the Health Packs from the original Halo game, Halo: Combat Evolved. If you get one it will fill your health bar to full, but be careful as it doesn't protect you.

Trivia

  • The achievement "Heal Up" is aquired by using one of these for the first time in Halo 3: ODST.
  • Some of the Medical Kiosks are empty, and hold Audio Logs. In this case, the Health Packs that should be in the Kiosk are on the ground next to it.
