Emergency Hospital coming to XBLA, PC on November 26 photo

Nursing school? Too expensive -- who needs it? GAMEINVEST has announced that it will be bringing "nurse sim" Emergency Hospital to Xbox LIVE Arcade and PC on November 26.

Formerly known as Sarah's Emergency Room, the title will put players in control of the ambitious (and sexy -- rowr!) young nurse Sarah who "accepts a mysterious management position at a small hospital in Arkansas." We're not sure what's so mysterious about it, as we see no sign of Josef Mengele-like experiments appearing in Emergency Room

Sarah will be doing things that aren't so mysterious, like diagnosing patients, prescribing meds, and running herself ragged between the waiting and operating rooms. For fans of time-management sims and sore throats, Emergency Hospital looks like the thing for you.

Press release after the jump.

GAMEINVEST, Portugal’s leading video game developer, today announced that production for the digital distribution version of Emergency Hospital is complete, and the fast-paced hospital time management game is set for release on November 26.

"From the graphics and the gameplay to the characters and the storyline, Emergency Hospital has the ingredients for success," said Lloyd Melnick, Chief Customer Officer at Merscom. “Also, we incorporated feedback from gamers to determine a game name that would really resonate with our audience.”

Emergency Hospital casts players as Sarah, an ambitious young nurse who suddenly gets a taste of thrilling emergency room action when she accepts a mysterious management position at a small hospital in Arkansas. Players control Sarah as she frantically diagnoses patients, prescribes medicine, assists in the operating room, and runs back and forth between the waiting room and examination rooms to keep track of troublesome patients. With nine difficulty levels for each of the game’s seven hospitals, and several floors of patients in each hospital, Emergency Hospital provides hours of frenzied fun for gamers of all ages.
Emergency Hospital will be distributed through leading portals, including: RealNetworks, Big Fish Games™, Oberon Media, Shockwave®, Trymedia, ArcadeTown, Boonty, Gamefools, PlayFirst®, iWin, Zapak and Reflexive® Entertainment.

Theme Hospital was a "sim" gam, while this seems to put you in control. I put "sim" in quotes because, you know, Bloaty Head. I hope this can come close to TH and make up for my disappointment in Hospital Tycoon.
