If this unit will be like the one my friend works in in Savannah, the patient will be triaged in the ER and have their initial testing. If it is decided you need to be admitted to the hospital, you will go to this "overflow unit" for additional testing and care, while they wait for a bed to open up in the hospital. Then, this overflow unit will transfer you to your room/floor of the hospital and turn over your care to them.
