  • This is just wrong. While I was going to go over why children are important this is really an issue of how the emergency room is being ran. In the ones I usually go to its worse case gets priority to least important.

    People who are hemorrhaging get first go, if someone who chopped off a limb they get first go, people who are deadly ill are next, people with stuff like infections go last. I have been to the emergency room a few times and this is how it works.

    If someone is in deadly ill and someone comes in with a missing arm they take the missing arm person immediately. Even if the person with the missing arm came in second. Its worst case to least severe case. I think you should find a better unit to get care from. These people sound incompetent.

    I went before I was a child and everyone else was much older. I still had to wait for much severe cases. So this is just idiocy and this shouldn't be allowed in an emergency room.

    every-time I went it was either since I had a painful infection, a serious injury or I incredibly ill. I still had to wait for doctors to give me medicine since someone has a pole stuck in thier head and a few times saw them pull in people bleeding passed out on gernies.

    • Priority is meant to be given first to those with breathing difficulties, then those bleeding...I forget the rest of the hierarchy.
