A triage room, also known as an assessment area, is a space in hospitals or emergency departments where patients are evaluated to determine the severity of their condition. Another name for this process is sorting, where patients are sorted based on their medical needs. The area can also be called a treatment room, where medical professionals administer the appropriate treatment to patients according to their severity level. In some cases, it's referred to as a primary care room or a reception room, depending on the facilities available. Regardless of the name, the focus remains on providing prompt and efficient care to those in need.
