Could someone please tell me where there's a Roden Shipyards station with medical facilities? I've just completed 2 months worth of soul destroying courier missions so that I could get to jump clone standings with then and if it turns out that I can't get them with Roden after all of that then... well let's just say it ain't going to be pretty... 
Standing by for rant in t-minus 5... 4...

Ok, just so I have this correct- you're telling me that in the whole of the Eve universe there's not one Roden owned medical bay...
Firing igniters on rant...

You are going to be ****ed.
I just checked every Roden station and found zero Med facilities. Understand the text is small and map laggy so I might have missed one but looks bad.

Thanks for checking- I've just finished trawling through Eve Info and I can unfortunately confirm that no, in the entire Eve universe, Roden Shipyards have no medical bays what so ever.
Y'know, I was going to try to let off some steam by having a massive rant but I'm just too gutted... all I can say is a very sincere **** you very much to CCP- so much for their bullcrap about making it easier to get jump clones with Revelations... the thought of having to grind through 100's more of their pathetic excuses for "missions" is just horrifying... but I suppose all they want is people's money and time really isn't it?

Sorry m8, but 
I find it amazing you didn't check in advance if doing those missions was worth it...instead you rant about "CCP's bullcrap".

Well "m8"- judging by the replies that I got, it'd seem that this isn't something that most people are aware of.
The only way to be sure of this is to check through EVERY station of the corp you're going to run missions for until you find a medical bay- do you mean to tell me that most people starting out in missions are going to do this? Did you?
I didn't set out to run missions- they started out as providing an occasional change in gameplay but when I got to 4 standings with Roden I thought to myself: "hell- I've come this far, I may as well get all this over with and get this jump clone business out of the way".
It'd be common sense to have at least one medical bay in every corp in eve- both from a game and realism point of view. How much sense does it make or how believable is it that there's a corporation with dozens of stations scattered throughout the Eve universe and not one of them would EVER have a medical need?
From the game's point of view it's just pathetic- the missions in Eve are the laziest excuses for PvE that I've ever encountered and the ONLY reason that I did them was so that I'd never have to do them again once I could get jump clones.
Just goes to show that common sense isn't common these days...

Exactly. Honestly, it was your responsibility to make sure the corporation you were grinding offered medical services. Different corps offer different services in different locations... for a similar example, research agents specialize in certain scientific areas and give out certain BPs. You should check information before investing such a significant amount of playing time?

Do people starting out in missions check things like station density, station coverage, available facilitys?
Nope, they don't need to - they generally aren't investing much in the project, they're hitting missions for some quick ISK.
Do people planning to get refining or jumpclone grade standings with a corp pick and choose the corp to work with extremely carefully?
Yes, because they're about to invest at least a month on a project which wont make them rich, or keep them highly entertained.
I'd chalk this one up to experience, use those standings for their R&D agents and remember this as a lesson in cruel EVE can be at times.
ps. bonus points if your next jumpclone corp has medical facilities but they're all in low-sec and you're an empire hugger :)

A month? How about investing just that little extra bit of time to insure whichever agent(s) you're going to run for have a storyline agent from the same corp nearby to bring it down to a week?
