The triage is an area where the patients are segregated based on the severity of the emergency and thereafter directed to appropriate areas of care. Our two-bed triage is staffed by a resident in emergency medicine along with a paramedic and a staff nurse who are trained adequately. Most patients are initially assessed at triage and then passed to another area of the department, or another area of the hospital, with their waiting time determined by their clinical needs. However, some patients may complete their treatment at the triage stage, for instance, if the condition is very minor and can be treated quickly, if only advice is required, or if the emergency department is not a suitable point of care for the patient. Conversely, patients with evidently serious conditions, such as cardiac arrest, will bypass triage altogether and move straight to the appropriate part of the department.
