weird triage question #345

I kid you not...weirdest question ever asked in triage:

"Can I go to the bar while I wait?"

Ah...sure sir, just give us your cell number and we'll call you when its your turn....

Just install a bar in the waiting room and hand out pagers.
"If you'd like to relax in the bar area and have a few drinks, we'll buzz you when your table *cough* room is ready."
It would do a lot for your patient satisfaction scores... not so much for their health or coherency tho.

If the chap's well enough to go off to a bar, maybe he can wait and see his PCP?
Triage note 'Patient discharged to bar'
