Follow our step-by-step walkthrough for The Medical Center mission in A Way Out. Learn how to find Carol, escape the hospital, and evade the police.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    In the waiting area, you can play Connect Four or talk to people. Carol is not on this floor.
  2. 2
    Take the elevator. A guard will enter; you can choose Vincent's way (talk) or Leo's way (knock out). This choice is cosmetic.
  3. 3
    On the higher floor, play the wheelchair minigame, talk to people, or sit in the waiting area. Sitting and watching TV with Leo unlocks the 'Live the Dream' achievement.
  4. 4
    Talk to the nurse at the desk as Vincent. This triggers a cutscene and the police arrive.
  5. 5
    As Vincent, run up the stairs to the left and through the double red doors.
  6. 6
    As Leo, head right, follow the hallway, and tackle the guard when prompted.
  7. 7
    Continue right to the exit sign. You may need to QTE a guard. Reach the stairs.
  8. 8
    As Vincent, run through the halls.
  9. 9
    As Leo, run away from the police. Barricade the door by tapping the prompted button.
  10. 10
    Stealth through the dimly lit room while the policeman is not looking.
  11. 11
    As Leo, exit the dark room to the left into another hallway. Do not engage the three guards. Try to open the double doors to the left.
  12. 12
    Leo will bash through the doors. Jump into the elevator shaft.
  13. 13
    As Vincent, go through a surgery room, a door, and onto some crates. Pull open the yellow vent and crawl through the air duct.
  14. 14
    As Leo, the camera pans 2D. Go through the halls and fight security guards in white.
  15. 15
    In the hallway with glass windows, Leo uses a lamp as a weapon to knock out guards.
  16. 16
    As Vincent, exit the air duct. Interact with the window to go outside on the ledge.
  17. 17
    When police look away, head right, using pillars as cover. Go down the ladder and break the glass window to enter the lower floor.
  18. 18
    As Leo, hold a police officer hostage. Walk back while aiming your pistol; do not shoot.
  19. 19
    Find a red door on the right and exit through it.
  20. 20
    As Vincent, return to the main waiting area. Sit on the green seats to blend in with civilians.
  21. 21
    After the police question the nurse and leave, get up as Vincent and exit through the door they used.
  22. 22
    More police will find you in the hall, and Vincent is forced to jump out the window.
  23. 23
    As Leo, run to the car and jump inside to evade the police.
Tips
  • The choice of how to deal with the first suspicious guard (talk or knock out) has no gameplay impact.
  • Sitting and watching TV in the waiting area with Leo is the only way to unlock the 'Live the Dream' achievement.
  • When playing as Leo and holding a hostage, you do not need to fire your weapon; simply back away to safety.
  • As Vincent, blending in by sitting on the green seats is crucial to avoid detection by the police in the waiting area.
