I have set up my first hospital.  To do this I read the wiki and learned all the materials you need--beds, tables, cabinets & chests.  I have thread and cloth and made some splints, crutches and even some soap.  But when I go to the (H)ospital screen in the zone, it lists only the furniture, thread and cloth (oh and 1 of the many buckets I made).  It shows that I'm lacking the other supplies.  My doctor knows where they are--he dashes to the stockpile to get them.  But do I need to have them in the hospital proper?  How should I do this?  The wiki says they just get put in the cabinets, but that doesn't seem to happen.  Is this just a straight-forward "make a special stockpile in the hospital" thing?

Thanks!

Use containers, not cabinets. Bags or chests work fine. B-F

 The idiot doctor will still get stuff from other stockpiles. The items you reserve for the hospital, if not stored in chests/coffer/bag inside the hospital, are still reserved for hospital only use. The stuff stored inside the hospital is for convenience.
 Beware reserving too much of any items. Can interfere with the items non medical use(A moody dwarf needs silk cloth, but its reserved for the hospital). Also, chests/coffers bags can only hold so much
