I respect those who have spent their lives in the medical profession who post on this forum. I know they have medical knowledge and years of experience that none of us could come close to. I thank them for their service and for their helpful explanations.
Very few places must deal with the huge increase in population that stay here long enough to get really sick before they go to emergency.
STILL Triage is for the VERY ill, those who are not breathing well, or bleeding or having a cardiac emergency. You may be in terrible, AWFUL pain, but they will take someone who is in danger of death before you.
Perhaps people who stay three months every year should establish themselves with a physician here, so that small things don't become big things. We did just that when we came down for just the season. Just a thought. An ounce of prevention...
