Stage 1: Triage – Registration – Examination Procedures:
A patient who comes to our emergency department as an outpatient first applies to the triage and registration unit. The triage unit is the unit that decides on the urgency of the patient who comes to the emergency department all over the world. For an effective service delivery in the emergency department, the triage area is positioned at the entrance of the emergency department together with the registration procedures, close to the patient waiting room, considering patient privacy. The triage procedure is carried out by healthcare personnel who have received triage training, under the supervision of a physician, in accordance with the triage color coding as soon as possible. The healthcare personnel who have received triage training record the patient's complaint and vital signs (fever, pulse, blood pressure, blood sugar measurement) in the triage area of the patient observation form, and provide and direct the patient after triage in accordance with the red, yellow, green areas in order of priority. Simultaneously with the triage procedures, the patient registration unit information processing personnel; performs the first registration of the patients with their T.R. identity numbers, regardless of their social security.

3. Consultation Procedures:
After the patients are evaluated by the emergency physicians, the emergency physician may request consultation (advisory service for the patient) from the relevant branches if necessary. After the evaluation, he/she informs the emergency physician of his/her recommendations, if any, verbally and in writing. Or, he/she may request some additional tests regarding the patient.
