Patient Triage
Healthcare and Medical
Patient triage is the process of prioritizing patients for treatment based on the severity of their condition, most commonly used in emergency rooms, urgent care centers, and disaster response settings. Nurses and emergency medical personnel trained in triage protocols (such as the Emergency Severity Index) quickly assess symptoms and vital signs to determine who needs immediate care versus who can safely wait. Effective triage is critical for managing patient flow and allocating limited medical resources during high-demand situations.
