Where To Start The Dayton Hospital Sidequest In Once Human

Warehouse near Dayton Hospital in Once Human — Once Human Dayton Hospital warehouse location

Dayton Hospital is a POI located west of the town of Brookham and directly north of the Monolith of Greed in the Dayton Wetlands. The POI includes all buildings surrounding the hospital, including a warehouse on the western side where an NPC named Paul can be found.

Paul is an injured survivor who hid himself in the warehouse while waiting for his partner, Kayla, who went to the hospital in search of medical supplies. However, it's been a while since she left, and Paul is worried something has happened to her. He'll ask you to find Kayla in the hospital along with the medical supplies.

You can find a deceased Kayla in a supply room on the hospital's upper floors. If you interact with the Emergency Medicine on one of the shelves, the space around you will start warping. After a short loading screen, you'll find yourself in a special instance of the hospital away from the rest of the open world.

How To Leave Dayton Hospital In Once Human

Stuck in the Dayton Hospital Lobby in Once Human — Once Human Dayton Hospital lobby

Once you get the Wheelchair Deviant inside Dayton Hospital, you'll find yourself stuck in spatial loop in one of the hospital's lobby areas. To get out, you need to set the calendar on the south wall to 9/15, as per the repeating announcement on the PA system. Once Human is a melting pot of influences, and this scene feels like it's something straight out of the SCP Foundation.

To do this, you need to move through the doors until the calendar is set to the right date. The doors in front and behind the nurse's desk will move the day on the calendar, while the ones to the left and right will move the month. Simply run through the doors until you get 9/15 on the calendar, then use the phone on the nurse's desk. The door right next to the desk will open up, revealing the Space Turner Deviant alongside the mysterious wheelchair from the beginning.
