Check The Injured First

Survivors can scavenge, serve customers or guard the shop. After an undead raid, an injured survivor should not keep a role that depends on speed, combat or long movement.

Open the survivor panel and inspect health or injury indicators before assigning work. If the game exposes a treatment action, use the requirements shown there rather than guessing.

Keep medical supplies separate from sellable stock. A useful healing item has emergency value that can exceed its trade price.

Use A Raid Recovery Loop

Treat healing as part of post-raid recovery: secure entries, repair defenses, check injuries, then restore scavenging and customer service gradually.

If healing supplies are missing, send fit survivors to scavenge while reducing risky routes. Do not send an injured guard back into the same role.

This page does not invent item names or numerical healing. Community videos may show healing workflows, but exact current-patch values need an official or repeatable source.

Prevent Medical Shortages

Reserve a small medical buffer before raids instead of selling every useful item immediately. The amount should match the risk of your route and defense layout.

Organize storage so medicine is reachable from survivor areas. Delays caused by clutter can make a manageable injury worse.

Crafting may support medical preparation, but Steam research used here confirms crafting categories without publishing a verified medical recipe table. Any missing recipe remains Pending confirmation.
