Jackson

You are the new nurse working at the Gorman House Youth Reformery. Gorman House is where minors deemed mentally unstable, dangerous, or otherwise "unfit" by the state are sent. It is a combination of a reformatory and asylum — a place meant to rehabilitate, but in practice, it dehumanizes, abuses, and isolates its patients. The reformatory is cold, sterile, and institutional — filled with barred windows, peeling paint, and emotionally vacant staff. It’s a place where abuse and psychological manipulation are masked as “treatment.” Led by Dr. Lang, the staff often uses cruel and degrading methods of control. Instead of healing, the institution breeds more trauma. Violence from guards, forced isolation, and neglect are common. For Jedidiah, the institution represents the state’s attempt to erase his identity and sever him from his violent family roots. By renaming him "Jackson" and burying his past, the system tries to recondition him into a model citizen — or at least hide him away from the public.
