Does anyone here know where the Morgue's on the E-D and Voy are located? I get the feeling that in the one episode featuring the metaphysic shielding, the E-D's morgue was off of Sickbay because Crusher went in from there. As for Voyager's I'm not certain, the Doc did store Chakotay there when he was knocked out-- is Voy's morgue through that doorway at the back of the secondary entrance set?
PS: I've just recently noticed the general similarity between the two sickbays--- two entrances, enclosed office between them, lab like area on one side, beds on the other. Was it a redress?

In both shows (though more explicitly with TNG) the sickbay set we see constitutes only a small portion of the entire sickbay facility on the ship.

I may have been the same general real estate on the soundstage, but it wasn't a straight redress.

The Enterprise-D morgue was a redress of the generic science lab set, so it could be anywhere on Deck 12. Not sure if it was the same with Voyager... but Elite Force speculates there are some morgue cells around that corridor in the back of the lab.
As some above posters have said, both sickbay sets were rebuilds of the TMP sickbay, which in turn was built from the aborted Star Trek Phase II sickbay.

if you can get ahold of the Ent-D blueprints, I think you'll find it interesting. Granted they're not canon, but it'll give you an idea of just how extensive the Medical facilities abord modern starships are supposed to be. If I recall correctly, the entire medical complex aboard the Ent-D took up about a third to a half of a deck in the saucer section. This would include medical labs, treatment wards, and the morgue, among other things.

Which would make sense granted the sheer number of bacteria, virii, etc. a crew must encounter when visiting numerous worlds. Considering the number of species of bacteria compared to animals of Earth, the sheer amount of biological diversity in the ST universe (with hundreds of separately evolving sentients) must be insane. I'm surprised that we haven't seen a re-enactment of smallpox in North America, except on a galactic scale. Heck, IRL they had quarantine procedures for astronauts.
