The following items are affected by the Healing skill:
* [[Crafting items#Ingredient items|Rags]]: Base chance of successfully healing a [[Woundlight wound]] is 50%; increases by 10% for every level above Unskilled.** Roll a '''1d100'''; if the result is equal to or under to the chance percentage, the [[Woundlight wound]] is healed, otherwise the rag is consumed and another one must be usedwith no effects.
* [[Meds|First Aid Kits]] (FAKs) and [[Meds|Field Surgery Kits]] (FSKs): After using and resolving the [[Effects#Healing|light or strong limb healing]] effect on the targeted limb, '''all other limbs heal bonus HP''', which scales with skill level, from '''+0 HP''' at Unskilled to '''+4 HP''' at Master.
** Bonus HP does not burn [[Nutrition]] or [[Fatigue]].
= Other benefits =
At Skilled level, a character gains access to the '''[[Healing massage]]''' ability.<br/>At Master level, a character gains the permanent effect, '''[[Effects#Healing|Addiction resistance]]'''.
= Healing skill levels =
For every [[Meds|med]] used, either on oneself or another character, 1 Skill Point is granted. As explained above, using [[Crafting items#Ingredient items|rags]] as makeshift bandages also counts, but the Skill Point is only granted if it successfully heals a [[Woundlight wound]].
Using the [[Healing massage]] also grants 1 Skill Point.
