What is triage in medical care?
April 7, 2026 – Dr. Jacqueline Westcott
In medical care triage, a clinic or hospital uses a structured triage process to sort patients by urgency. Instead of seeing everyone strictly in order of arrival, the care provider looks at symptoms, vital signs, and the patient’s condition to decide who needs immediate attention, who needs prompt office-based care, and who can safely wait for a routine visit.
