– 3- You can be creative to give some examples from the world; especially my country Saudi Arabia.
– 4- I NEED A L LONG PARAGRAPH ( NOT VERY LONG) TO ANSWER these two questions and to be guided ONLY by the two references I’ve mentioned BUT please use your own language when you express that I mean not only to take the information as it is. The two questions are:
– 1. What are some issues regarding the concept of triage and its implications? Is the practice defensible all the time? In other words, how does the concept of ethics play a role in that function?
2. What is different about triage in children? Consider physical, physiologic and emotional issues in your response. Restrict your discussion to parameters important during disaster triage.
– Waiting for great work and if so I’ll send you the best evaluation and be with you next week for the next assignments BUT please follow the instructions very carefully.
