The Capitol Hospital is the main hospital in the Capitol.
History[]
The hospital often treated victims of lab mishaps. Clemensia Dovecote was taken there after she was bitten by Dr. Volumnia Gaul's snake mutts. Coriolanus Snow ran to the hospital afterward, wanting to make sure she was still alive, and was given a fizzy drink and crackers by the nurse at the counter.[1]
After the Capitol Arena was bombed, Coriolanus was hospitalized along with Androcles Anderson and Gaius Breen, who were in critical condition. The veterinarian had tried to get Panlo and Sheaf, the two tributes from District 9, admitted to the hospital, but her requests were refused. They succumbed to their wounds,[2] as did Gaius some time later.[3]
Coriolanus was put on a table under a bright light while doctors tried to assess his concussion, asking him questions and jabbing him with needles, one of which was a morphling drip. Dr. Wane introduced himself afterward and gave Coriolanus a quick checkup. A few days later, Clemensia visited Coriolanus in his room, showing him what the snake venom had done to her before being carried away by two hospital staff. Coriolanus was released the next day.[2]
At some point during his time in the hospital, Coriolanus received a tube of ointment.[4]
