    Sort of. If you’re not actively dying you can still expect to wait several hours with some panadol.

    Idk when you last had to go to ER but when I had a broken toe that needed setting they didn’t even have ice packs. The swelling from waiting about 6 hours made setting it a doozy, it’s crooked and achy now :(

    Shit is underfunded to all hell atm.

      That sucks, sorry to hear it.

      I’m used to waiting many hours in my/family’s experience with the places, though the time I dislocated my ankle and was compromising blood flow to my foot, they got on it immediately. Time-sensitive vs high-impact, I guess.
